Defending Democracy: Communities Can Help
abstract
Taiwan’s democracy is growing, but meanwhile it’s also confronted with challenges such as disinformation, foreign infiltration, and a global health crisis, which tear the society apart and throw it into chaos. Many have realized that Taiwan’s democracy needs its citizens’ guardianship and dedication to make it better.
The nonprofit organizations in the physical space, the open communities that are online and (seemingly) far-reaching, and networks of civil servants inside the government trying to break down barriers. Communities take many forms. What have they already done, and what will they keep doing to defend and deepen our democracy? How has “democracy” within projects and organizations affected the democracy of cities and countries? In the name of democracy, do the various measures really help devolving power to the people and deepening democracy, or is it just a handy tool in disguise for a small group of people to get benefit?
