Resumo(s)
Despite the formal and theoretical importance of political parties and their
roles in representative democracies, several opinion polls have been revealing
signs of political apathy, disaffection and discontent among European citizens
regarding political institutions; and parties are not immune to this trend (Norris
1999; Dalton and Wattenberg 2000; Dalton 2004; Pharr, Putnam and Dalton
2000; Torcal and Montero 2006; Inglehart 2016). This has led institutions
to re-evaluate their current practices and seek new approaches to connect
with citizens, by developing strategies to increase political participation,
including ways to take advantage of new technologies and the internet to
reach the “digital natives” (Furlong 2009). Accordingly, many political actors
and institutions across the world have undergone considerable reforms over
the last two decades, more recently by using internet channels and tools, to
support a deepening of public engagement (ipu 2009; Hansard Society 2011;
Leston-Bandeira 2009).
