民主能在日益“高速发展的社会”中保持弹性吗？一些批评者认为，社会加速对民主的理念和实践构成了严重威胁。其他人援引但没有发展“缓慢民主”的想法作为对这一威胁的一个重要回应。尽管它的重要性，批评和回应缺乏分析深度。在这种情况下，并在努力重建一个更强大，更富有成效的基础上的辩论，文章强调了政治机构的潜力，塑造民主的时间性和重构“慢民主”作为民主设计的挑战。
Can democracy be resilient in an increasingly ‘high-speed society’? Social acceleration, some critics argue, poses a serious threat to the idea and practice of democracy. Others invoke but do not develop the idea of ‘slow democracy’ as one important response to this threat. Despite its importance, the critique and response lack analytical depth. In this context, and in an effort to rebuild the debate on a stronger and more fruitful base, the article underscores the potential of political agency to shape democracy’s temporality and reframes ‘slow democracy’ as a challenge of democratic design.
