Book synopsis

This edited book is the first of its kind to§systematically address the intersection of e-democracy and European politics.§It contributes to an improved understanding of the role that new media§technologies play in European politics and the potential impact that§Internet-based political participation processes may have on modern-day§representative democracy in Europe. A unique, holistic approach is taken to examine§e-democracy's current state and prospects in Europe from three, partially§overlapping and interlocking perspectives: e-public, e-participation and§e-voting. The authors provide both theory-inspired reflections on e-democracy's§contribution to the formation of the European public sphere, as well as rich§empirical analyses of contemporary e-participation phenomena such as the§European Citizens' Initiative or e-voting practices in Estonia. Based on the presented§findings, the concluding chapter combines a prospective outlook with§recommendations for future paths towards meaningful integration of e-democracy§in European politics and governance.§
