Resumo

Este artigo é uma reflexão crítica sobre o impacto da revolução digital e da Internet em três tópicos que moldam o mundo contemporâneo: democracia, mídias sociais e liberdade de expressão. O Capítulo I estabelece alguns pressupostos históricos e conceituais sobre a democracia constitucional e discute o momento atual de recessão democrática, bem como o uso das plataformas digitais como estratégia de poder. O Capítulo II discute as plataformas de mídia social e a forma como revolucionaram a comunicação interpessoal e social, democratizando o acesso ao conhecimento e à informação, mas também levando a uma disseminação exponencial de desinformação, discursos de ódio e teorias conspiratórias. O Capítulo III propõe um quadro regulatório para a disciplina das plataformas digitais, sensível à importância de encontrar o equilíbrio certo com o direito fundamental contraposto, que é a liberdade de expressão, essencial para a dignidade humana, para a busca da verdade possível e para a democracia. O Capítulo IV destaca o papel da sociedade e a importância da educação midiática para criar um ambiente livre, mas positivo e construtivo na Internet. Por fim, o Capítulo V comenta brevemente novos desenvolvimentos importantes quando o artigo já se encontrava em vias de publicação.
