Hi Zach, Mark Coté, Paolo Gerbaudo and I recently put out a special issue on the Politics of Big Data in the new journal 'Digital Culture and Society’ (https://www.degruyter.com/view/j/dcs.2016.2.issue-2/issue-files/dcs.2016.2.i...) with articles by Bernhard Rieder, Stefania Milan and Lonneke van der Velden, Dhiraj Murthy and by ourselves. Perhaps some of these may be of use for your syllabus? All the best, Jennifer On 06/09/2017, 12:01, "Air-L on behalf of Zach Bastick" <air-l-bounces@listserv.aoir.org on behalf of zach.bastick@gmail.com> wrote: Hi all, Would any of you have ideas for a course syllabus on e-democracy or digital politics.

Sorry for the delay. In 2013, I've made a top 20 list for new comers in our e-democracy research group, but I never stopped to update it. Maybe it is still helpful.

Hi all,

Would any of you have ideas for a course syllabus on e-democracy or digital politics. Maybe some suggested readings or class activities? This is for 2nd year political science students, but I’d be glad to hear any ideas about how you teach this.
