Political Science in Digital and Sustainability Era
Main Article Content
บทคัดย่อ
In today's digital and sustainable era, the field of political science must adapt to keep up with rapid changes. Digital technology has played an important role in driving politics and public policy. Meanwhile, sustainability issues have become urgent and require all sectors to work together to solve them. Political science must adjust its paradigms and analytical tools to suit this new context.
One of the key issues is the use of digital technology in the political process. Whether it is a campaign, communication and interaction with the public, policy setting, or the delivery of public services, this helps increase public participation and transparency in administration. But at the same time, there are challenges regarding equal access to technology, data security, and the spread of false information. Political science must give importance to studying these effects and find ways to balance benefits and risks.
Another equally important issue is the integration of the sustainability dimension into politics. Policy formulation must take into account environmental impacts and social justice, both in the short term and in the long term. Balanced allocation of resources to achieve sustainable development, including creating mechanisms for citizens to participate more in policy decision-making, is necessary in order to develop in accordance with the needs of the community and society.
In addition, political science must develop conceptual frameworks and theories that are compatible with new political phenomena, such as cross-border politics, social movements
