Democracy, which means government by, for and of the people, is an intriguing idea that raises many questions: Who belongs to the people? What is the will people? Who can speak in the name of the people? In this course we survey classic and contemporary theories and practices of democracy, ranging from direct democracy in ancient Athens to modern day democratic protest in Tahrir Square and Zuccotti Park. We pay special attention to the ways in which processes of digitalization such as the use of social media transform local, national and global forms of democratic life.
