dc.description.abstractThe introductory contribution to this special issue on “Political Theory of the Digital Constellation” addresses the conditions and possibilities of political the- ory’s engagement with digital developments. The motivation for this inquiry is the growing interest in questions of political theory arising from the digital transforma- tion, as well as the acknowledgement that digitalisation not only changes politics, but conversely that politics also shapes digitalisation. The article identifies three pitfalls of previous engagement: The narrowing of the subject of “digitalisation” to the topic of the “internet” and, thereby, to the aspect of communication, the disre- gard for the technicality of the digital, and the insufficient recognition that (digital) technology is political. To avoid these pitfalls, the research perspective of the digi- tal constellation is presented. The digital constellation serves as an epistemological guide that helps to structure theoretical reflection on the interrelationship between digitalisation and political questions. Ultimately, the outlines of the political theory in the digital constellation become clear in the fourteen contributions of the special volume, which are presented in conclusion.
