Abstract
The growing distrust in political institutions is accompanied by new opportunities for civic involvement through online technological platforms. LiquidFeedback is one of the most interesting, as it embeds innovative fea-tures to support online deliberative processes. This software has been de-signed as an intranet tool for closed and homogeneous groups but it has also recently been used in large civic context, involving generic citizens. Aim of the paper is discussing the potential of LiquidFeedback for these purposes, by pre-senting the preliminary analysis of the “ProposteAmbrosoli2013” initiative carried on, in occasion of the recent elections in the Lombardy region (Italy).
