Chapter 5
Hacktivism and the Future of Democratic Discourse
Download the complete chapter (PDF)
This chapter examines deliberative democrats’ suggestion that the Internet may constitute a new public sphere, friendly to democratic discourse. But variation in how hacktivists handle speech rights and anonymity suggest that proceduralist visions of deliberative democracy may founder in the face of real-world complexities.
Please note that a version of this chapter appears in Democracy Online: The Prospects for Political Renewal Through the Internet.
