| Abstract |
The political and decision-making systems developed in parallel with the managing impact of the second industrial revolution. Their main characteristic is a linear top-down operation. The frameworks of current political, democratic institutions are unable to handle the effects caused by the ecological technologies. These weaknesses and deficits will hit back sooner or later; therefore, government practices and democracy models able to manage the effects of the first and second industrial revolutions are becoming less sustainable. However, it is clear that the e-democracy tools, the digital opportunities for participation, and the technical instruments of deliberative democracy are not yet widespread. Neither the government, nor smart city development are taking the opportunity of the above mentioned. |
