Artyficial Intelligence - A Threat to Democtratic Values? Implications for Security in the Digital A

Artificial intelligence is celebrated as a source of progress, fairness, and security. Yet in automating judgment, it reshapes what it means to know, to trust, and to decide. Platforms moderate speech in the name of safety; algorithms promise equality while reproducing bias; systems designed to educate and inform may erode critical thought. Protection becomes surveillance, and knowledge becomes prediction. This book explores how AI transforms democratic culture across communication, education, and public policy. Drawing on legal, social, and philosophical perspectives, it shows how the ideals of freedom and security are increasingly compromised by the very systems designed to safeguard them. Artificial Intelligence – A Threat to Democratic Values? reflects on the fragile balance between innovation and autonomy, and on the uncertain future of democracy in a world governed by code.
