How do social media platforms influence democracy? Karoline Helbig explores how platform logics – from digital architectures to economic incentives – shape public discourse and interact with broader deliberative systems. Drawing on deliberative theory and digitisation research, she offers a nuanced account of how platforms both constrain and support democratic communication. The study speaks to scholars, policymakers, and readers interested in democracy in a digital world.
