Are digital technologies and social media relevant to politics? It’s not so much a question of “if” but “how”….
This month we talk with Professor Jennifer Forestal about how the digital world can both support and hurt democracy. Looking at the way platforms are structured and monitored, we discuss ways that social media can build meaningful communities instead of atomized ones, what’s required of democratic citizenship in the 21st century, and how digital technologies might just be a boogeyman that overshadows bigger political issues.
