Showing results for "E-Government" in Democracy

In this advisedly optimistic book, Rewiring Democracy, security technologist Bruce Schneier and data scientist Nathan Sanders cut through the AI hype and examine the myriad ways that AI is transforming every aspect of democracy—for both good and ill. The authors describe how the sophistication of AI will fulfill demands from lawmakers for more complex legislation, reducing deference to the executive branch and altering the balance of power between lawmakers and administrators

Nell'ultimo decennio il mondo è divenuto protagonista di mutamenti politici, economici e sociali sempre più rapidi, che stanno portando alla creazione di nuove realtà politiche volte a cambiare, o addirittura stravolgere, le regole della democrazia occidentale. Una nuova generazione di élite fautrici di idee illiberali e autoritarie sta ottenendo un crescente consenso tra le masse e, dunque, una maggiore influenza. Oltreoceano, la presidenza di Trump, con il suo «America First», ha infiammato gli animi dei suprematisti bianchi.

The author of America's Hidden Success launches a daring and appealing political and economic plan to restore American unity and prosperity. Today, bitter partisanship has sunk our politics into unending stalemate, millions of Americans are struggling to get ahead financially, and cynicism about the effectiveness and fairness of our political processes grows continually deeper. The country needs practical, principled, and unifying solutions, rather than continued finger-pointing across the aisle.

American democracy was never supposed to give the nation a president like Donald Trump. We have never had a president who gave rise to such widespread alarm about his lack of commitment to the institutions of self-government, to the norms democracy requires, and to the need for basic knowledge about how government works. We have never had a president who raises profound questions about his basic competence and his psychological capacity to take on the most challenging political office in the world.

Most people assume that racism grows from a perception of human difference: the fact of race gives rise to the practice of racism. Sociologist Karen E. Fields and historian Barbara J. Fields argue otherwise: the practice of racism produces the illusion of race, through what they call “racecraft.” And this phenomenon is intimately entwined with other forms of inequality in American life. So pervasive are the devices of racecraft in American history, economic doctrine, politics, and everyday thinking that the presence of racecraft itself goes unnoticed.

Algumas democracias são altamente homogêneas; outras são marcadas por uma hierarquia racial ou religiosa brutal—e nunca se viu uma democracia ao mesmo tempo diversa e igualitária, que trata membros de diferentes grupos étnico-raciais ou religiosos de forma justa. No entanto, atingir esse objetivo o quanto antes é fundamental para o sucesso da democracia em vários países do mundo. Para Yascha Mounk, este é o grande experimento de nosso tempo.
