Resumo(s)
The idea that democracy is a government of the people, by the people, for the people entails that there is no government by the people if inclusion is taken out of the equation. This poses a significant challenge to the capacity democracies have to govern beyond the temporal scope of the current demos, as members of the people in the past and the future are today voiceless and biteless. This chapter offers a solution to this difficulty by emphasizing that democratic governance is multitemporal insofar as the ‘of-by-for’ tryptic involves different timescapes: ‘of the people’ refers to a cross-temporal dimension of the collective political body that outlasts its individual members; ‘by the people’ refers to the practice of self-determination, which is mostly presentist; and ‘for the people’ refers to all those individuals who are likely to be affected by a democratic decision, and is mostly future-oriented.
