Abstract

The paper addresses the question: how to use data-analysis and platform technologies to support and transform democratic governance. Following a short introduction, (1a) why democracy has to be transformed, and (1b) how democracy has to be transformed, it will (2a) present the vision of a platform directed on supporting and transforming democratic governance with data-analysis and platform technologies, and (2b) outline a potential workflow aka process to realize this idea. The last part (3) will address further questions and considerations related to Democratic Tech Development.¹

1There are to many footnotes and references for an easy-reading, and to few for academic honors. Well, I consider every of them relevant to be checked. In honors of Rory Miller (King’s College London/ Georgetown University) and his concept of ‘sexy footnotes’: not necessary (these links are within the text) but relevant to know.
