FERREIRA, Jonatas. The idea of digital democracy in the work of Heidegger. Anál. Social [online]. 2010, n.196, pp.515-533. ISSN 0003-2573.

The issue of digital inclusion has been mobilizing the attention of those who perceive in science and technology a favored space for discussing democracy in contemporary societies. However, the theoretical and highly consolidated ties that connect the idea of social inclusion to what has been named distributive justice bar the possibility of conceiving of the democratization of technologies sufficiently. What are information and communication technologies that their social appropriation has become a cultural imperative in recent decades? Reflecting upon the essence of technique and cybernetics, the heideggerian texts of the 1960s help us to engage this question. The following essay is a contribution to such a discussion.

Palavras-chave : information and communication technologies; democracy; digital inclusion; Heidegger.
