In this revealing book, New York Times bestselling author Cass Sunstein shows how today´s Internet is driving political fragmentation, polarization, and even extremism - and what can be done about it. He proposes practical and legal changes to make the Internet friendlier to democratic deliberation, showing that #Republic need not be an ironic term. Rather, it can be a rallying cry for the kind of democracy that citizens of diverse societies need most.
