Opis

This book proposes a critical and transversal reflection on the challenges of constitutional democracy in times of hyperconnectivity. From a dialectical approach, which considers tensions between law, politics, technology and globalization, the author examines how the Information Age reconfigures forms of participation, power and constitutional interpretation. Concepts such as network society, transconstitutionalism, horizontality of rights and the interpretative openness of the Constitution are mobilized to think about democracy beyond the nation-state, in dialogue with authors such as Marcelo Neves, Niklas Luhmann, Pierre Lévy, Norberto Bobbio, Edgar Morin, among others. The constitution ceases to be just a legal text and becomes a living space of symbolic, technical and social dispute. An invitation to those seeking to understand the complexity of law in the digital age and the urgency of its democratic reinvention.
