Technology and American Democracy explores the underpinning democratic theories, including constitutional justifications, that guide decision makers during the application of Information Technology (IT) in governance to promote democratic principles such as transparency and accountability. The book examines the capacity of IT to alter modern bureaucratic structures and functions, highlighting how specific areas of public policy including public budgeting and performance measurement are affected by the application of modern advancements. Author Anthony Trotta demonstrates the ways in which technology creates new problems for contemporary government, including a discussion of virtual currency and its possible issues that must be addressed by the public sector. The discussion avoids highly technical language and confusing industry jargon, focusing instead on explaining important concepts in an accessible fashion, applicable to a broad spectrum of readers. Technology and American Democracy is required reading for students enrolled in courses on politics, public administration, and public policy"-- |cProvided by publisher. 650 0 Deliberative democracy |xTechnological innovations. 650 0 Internet in public administration |zUnited States. 650 0 Social media |xPolitical aspects |zUnited States. 650 0 Information technology |xPolitical aspects |zUnited States. 650 0 Political participation |xTechnological innovations |zUnited States. 650 6 Démocratie délibérative |0(CaQQLa)000259997 |xInnovations. |0(CaQQLa)201-0379286 650 6 Internet dans l'administration publique |0(CaQQLa)201-0358563 |zÉtats-Unis. |0(CaQQLa)201-0407727 650 6 Médias sociaux |0(CaQQLa)000258927 |xAspect politique |0(CaQQLa)201-0382521 |zÉtats-Unis. |0(CaQQLa)201-0407727 650 6 Technologie de l'information |0(CaQQLa)201-0023285 |xAspect politique |0(CaQQLa)201-0382521 |zÉtats-Unis. |0(CaQQLa)201-0407727 650 6 Participation politique |0(CaQQLa)201-0007797 |xInnovations |0(CaQQLa)201-0379286 |zÉtats-Unis. |0(CaQQLa)201-0407727 650 7 Information technology |xPolitical aspects |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00973119 650 7 Internet in public administration |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00977260 650 7 Political participation |xTechnological innovations |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01983804 650 7 Social media |xPolitical aspects |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01983657 651 7 United States |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01204155 776 08 |iOnline version:Trotta, Anthony M., 1974- |tTechnology and American democracy |bFirst edition. |dNew York : Routledge, 2024 |z9781003441830 |w(DLC) 2023019676 910 |cG0601mon |d3110-08 |gYBP |h20636 914 (OCoLC)on1391135461 |bOCoLC |cmatch |d20240417 |eprocessed |f1391135461 980 19685259 |f20636 |i170.00 |j139.40 |n40032174487 982 |cf |q32101119725347
