The paper analyses the efficacy of digital platforms for deliberative and participatory democracy in enhancing democracy. After examining the concepts of deliberative and participatory democracy (§IA), particularly their meaning from a legal standpoint and their relation to representative and direct democracy (§IB), the study introduces the broader concept of ‘digital democratic innovations’ (§IC) and adopts a classification framework (§II). Then, the current legal framework of e-participation in Italy, Germany, France, and the EU is analysed (§III). This comparative analysis sets the stage for a detailed examination of five digital platforms operating at both local and national levels, which serve as case studies. Through a systematic evaluation of the key features of these platforms, the paper classifies those platforms according to the classification framework (§IVA-E). It also assesses the quality of citizen participation facilitated by each digital democratic innovation exploring two indicators: the meaningfulness of participation and the extent of digital deliberation (§IVF). In drawing conclusions, the paper also suggests potential avenues for further legal research into digitised civic participation (§V). |
