Democracy: The Mechanism for Moving from "I" to "We"
"Let the majority decide!" is the basic principle of democracy, a selection mechanism; a way of deciding who governs, how power is distributed, and what direction communities take. However, behind this seemingly simple principle unfolds a complex web of numbers, procedures, and, of course, paradoxes.

What counts when we vote? What does it mean to reduce the will of the people to numbers? Why is a simple majority sufficient for one option to prevail over another? More than electoral rules, these are philosophical questions worth rethinking today: not only because they reveal the profound link between democracy and mathematics, but also because, in a context marked by technological transformations, global crises, and new forms of subjectivity, logic and form influence social reality.
