Od postdemokracije do monitorne demokracije; Preizpraševanje demokracije v času informacijsko-komunikacijskih tehnologij

Turk, Žiga (author), Vodovnik, Žiga (mentor)

Pričujoče delo izhaja iz teze, da se liberalni politični model nahaja v nepovratni krizi predstavništva in participacije. Politično organiziranje šibijo nizke volilne udeležbe in val populizma. Z namenom razumevanja obstoječe družbene formacije in njenega trenutnega stanja, želi magisterij preučiti razloge za nastalo stanje in ponuditi dodatno pomoč pri razumevanju razvoja demokracije. Za dosego cilja, delo razmišljanje začne z zgodovinskim opisom najpomembnejših demokratskih družbenih prelomov. Zgodovinske temelje dopolni s koncepti postdemokracije, ki potrjujejo tezo o izpraznjenih demokratičnih strukturah. Postdemokratsko stanje zaokrožijo koncepti monitorne demokracije, ki za svoj obstoj potrebuje veliko mero predstavništva in jezdi val digitalizacije. V končnem delu se magisterij fokusira na nove tehnološke inovacije in internet ter premišlja ali so one lahko odgovor na obstoječa politična vprašanja.

Abstract

The present work stems from the thesis that the liberal political model is in the irreversible crisis of representation and participation. Political organization is weakened by low electoral participation and the wave of populism. In order to understand the existing social formation and its current state, this Master's degree aims to examine the reasons for the situation and offer further assistance in understanding the development of democracy. In order to achieve its goal, the work begins its thinking process with a historical description of the most important democratic social turns. It complements the historical foundations with the concepts of postdemocracy, which confirm the thesis about the emptied democratic structures. The postdemocratic situation is rounded up by the concepts of the monitory democracy, which for its existence needs a great deal of representation and benefits greatly from digitization. In the final part, the master's degree focuses on new technological innovations and the Internet, considering whether they can introduce an answer to existing political issues.
