| description | The study of this research comprises the technology and its democratic possibilities, integrated to a debate on theories of democracy. Technology, in modernity, is seen as an instrument with which the agent communicates with his environment, and the critical theories developed that embrace it depart from two paths: that its potentiality is a mean of domination or that is capacity is neutral, based on its inherent scientific rationality. Democracy aims to integrate the interests of all, and from that, direct decision-making. The factor is complex, however, a compound is perennial: the manifestation and conveyance of an interest is a presupposition for such interest to be part of the political and legal system of society. It was intended to respond to the problem expressed as follows: is technological development limited to the terms of the instrumentalist and substantialist currents of technology in view of contemporary democratic plurality? Considering the relations of contemporary industrial society, technology possesses democratic impulses, once thinking it and integrating in its development the particularities of each person or group of people, as a means to enhance its content and its effects on society. The inclusion of people with disabilities in the digital sphere needs to be architected, as it encounters serious impediments, analogous to the physical sphere. The method of approach used was the hermeneutic one, starting from premises that consubstantiate in the problem. The procedure method used was the monographic and the research technique, bibliographical. |
