Resumo:
With the insertion of new information and communication technologies, democratic societies are in a complex, accelerated and still nebulous process of transformation. Starting from the conception of democracy as a way of life, based on values, procedures and shared assumptions, as well as understanding political representation as necessary for contemporary societies, the representative democracy that will be the premise for the present study is the one systematized by the Italian political philosopher Nadia Urbinati: diarchical, contemplating the dimensions of will (vote) and opinion. Focusing on the dimension of opinion, endogenous vices brought by Urbinati and capable of disfiguring the democratic regime will first be analyzed. Based on this categorization, the dissertation intends to analyze the specificities of democracy crossed by the diffusion of digital technology, contributing to the debate from the proposition of a new democratic disfigurement: the algorithmization of opinion. This disfigurement will be analyzed from the understanding that the current forum of opinion is developed in a world, mostly, digital and with social networks, submitted, therefore, to a logic of algorithms. While much of the work on the subject focuses on the incompatibilities of algorithmic logic with democratic values to conclude that democracies are over, this research is premised on the fact that a disfigured democracy is still a democracy, betting, therefore, on its conception as an open process, subject to errors, but also to corrections.
