Episode 1 • Nov 06, 2017
Citizens in Development
Despite a wide discontent with politics, some people are creating or taking opportunities to build new tools for political action. Either by exploring loops in the political system in order to transform from inside out, by using social media to expose and incite criticism, or by partnering with young fellows that are awakening to politics through the use of new experiences and organization forms. Political innovation depends on context. In 2013, Brazil testified the dawn of an authorial citizenship, that might not have been understood by traditional views, but which surely made changes that influenced politics in the country and, ultimately, prompted new movements and organizations.
Episode 2 • Nov 06, 2017
Technology
The use of technology in politics is here to last. Services, relations and even decision-making processes will use virtual interfaces even more often. We must all adapt. Some people are ahead of others and have set up connections between the digital world and traditional structures, while some are using technology to increase influence over the society. The use of technology needs to be accountable in order to lead to virtuous outcomes to citizenship and need to be carefully managed so that to prevent new forms of civil rights violations. Technology is not a fetish, but a medium.
Episode 3 • Nov 06, 2017
Public Authorities
Innovation and transformation associated with technologies and the dynamics of social media have long been added to many aspects of life: economy, education and social organization. Politics resist in incorporating it and that intensifies disconnection with a society that already gets by with a different sense. Ideas such as decentralization, collaboration and transparency are exception. Some public institutions recognize that breach and are willing to rebuild relations with society based on that paradigm and new ones to come. All this could be possible in Brazil. What the country lacks is the willingness to take risks and innovate.
Episode 4 • Nov 06, 2017
What Do I Have to Do With That?
Citizens who lack political culture and politicians not ready to work for the public cause do not contribute to stable and healthy democracies. The restoring of trust in politics, especially in Brazil, lays in the recovery of the legislative power, which must be accessible to society either through formal mechanisms or through transparency. We have noticed that many groups in the country are working to recover the value and reliability of politics. Above all, they are sure that it is through politics that it is possible to improve people's lives. If institutions are not capable of fulfilling those demands and taking them into account, society needs to set up its own way of influence, no matter how difficult it is.
