What is Cyberdemocracy : Transforming Politics about?

This book is explicitly modernist at a time when many scholars have either forgotten the emancipatory promise of the Enlightenment or railed against it in the name of postmodernism. The book, broadly, adopts a hybrid epistemology that utilises the critical insights of Geisteswissenschaften Tradition (Weberian Ideal-Type Analysis) and the Habermas (1988) notions of the public sphere and deliberative/dialogic democracy (ideal speech) to advance a general proposition of democratic renewal by way of cyberdemocracy. Curiously, as democracy spreads across the world in the age of globalisation, it has also been accompanied by increased discontent with democratic systems. To that end, this book is not overly concerned with saving democracy beyond the liberal representative model, rather the focus is on how modern representative democracy has failed and how cyberdemocracy might function as a more effective model that truly represents the people by broadening participation and reflexive deliberation. Harem Karem has recently obtained his Ph.D. in the United Kingdom. He is currently the executive director of a national NGO that focuses on research, training, and media. Formerly, Harem worked
