Titolo: Democrazia partecipativa, nuove tecnologie e webpolitica: partiti politici e cultura come strumenti per aggirare il declino della democrazia
Abstract [It.]: La proliferazione del web e dei social media, in concomitanza con lo sviluppo di movimenti populisti, sta creando nuove forme di democrazia partecipativa non necessariamente aderenti ai propri valori. È fondamentale indagare le ragioni politiche e sociologiche che stanno determinando queste circostanze; occorre ricercare soluzioni giuridiche e culturali per preservare l’ordine democratico e, quindi, arginare il processo di declino.
Abstract [En.]: The proliferation of the web and social media, in conjunction with the development of populistic movements, is creating new forms of participatory democracy which does not necessarily adhere to its own values. It is essential to investigate the political and sociological reasons which are causing this state of affairs; legal and cultural solutions should be sought out to preserve the democratic order and, therefore, stem any decay process.
