Citizen knowledge : markets, experts, and the infrastructure of democracy / Lisa Herzog.
Livre
'Citizen Knowledge' discusses how various forms of knowledge are dealt with in societies that combine a democratic political system with a capitalist economic system. How do citizens learn about politics? How are scientific insights taken up in politics? What role can markets play for processing decentralized knowledge? Lisa Herzog argues that the fraught relation between democracy and capitalism gets out of balance if too much knowledge is treated according to the logic of markets. Complex societies need different mechanisms for dealing with knowledge, among which democratic deliberation and expert communities are central. 'Citizen Knowledge' develops the vision of an egalitarian society that considers the use of knowledge in society a matter of shared democratic responsibility.
