Abstract
Da li su demokratske institucije otporne na globalne i lokalne promene životne sredine? Ovo je glavno pitanje našeg vremena usred degradacije životne sredine, klimatskih promena, gubitka staništa i biodiverziteta. U 21. veku, čak i regioni i države sa dugom demokratskom istorijom moraju da se suoče sa izazovima koje predstavlja hitnost životne sredine. U svom radu i prezentaciji, želeo bih da istaknem definiciju zelenih demokratija i implikacije takvih naselja na ljudska prava. Digitalna rešenja, uključujući veštačku inteligenciju, mogu da ometaju, ali i da pomognu u postizanju i podršci zelenoj tranziciji. Zelene demokratije i zeleni gradovi dobijaju sve veću pažnju nevladinih organizacija, država i Evropske unije, na osnovu spoznaje da je zelene odluke i uspešna rešenja lakše postići lokalno, a ne globalno. U okviru SDG, EU i međunarodnih programa, sve više naselja se opredeljuje za ekološku demokratiju. U drugom delu svog rada koncentrišem se na ulogu digitalnih rešenja i veštačke inteligencije, pre svega na to kako ova rešenja mogu da podrže alate direktne demokratije, koja se pokazala kao suštinski element zelenih demokratija.
Sažetak
Are democratic institutions resilient to global and local environmental change? This is the main question of our times in the midst of environmental degradation, climate change, habitat and biodiversity loss. In the 21st century, even regions and states with a long democratic history have to face the challenges posed by environmental urgency. In my paper and presentation, I would like to highlight the definition of green democracies and the human rights implications of such settlements. Digital solutions, including artificial intelligence, can hinder but also help achieve and support the green transition. Despite the challenges, there is hope in the potential of digital solutions to support the transition to green democracies. Green democracies and green cities have been receiving growing attention from NGOs, states, and the European Union, based on the realization that green decisions and successful solutions are easier to achieve locally and not globally. In the frame of the SDGs, EU and international programs, more and more settlements opt for environmental democracy. In the second part of my paper, I am concentrating on the role of digital solutions and AI, particularly how these solutions can support the tools of direct democracy, which has proved to be an essential and significant element of green democracies.
