How is American government being reconfigured when public authority is exercised through code, platforms, and data systems as much as through statutes, agencies, and courts? Algorithmic Governance and Power: How AI is Reshaping American Democracy shows how decisions about speech, benefits, policing, immigration, and elections are increasingly shaped by technological infrastructure and private governance operating alongside - and often inside - the state. Nancy S. Lind argues that public power now routinely operates through a governmentâ"private sector partnership she calls the âhybrid state.â Through case-based analysis of algorithmic screening, risk assessment tools, content moderation, and microtargeted political advertising, she traces how legal and policy judgments become embedded in system design - often in ways that are hard to see, contest, or appeal through conventional administrative and judicial channels. Written for scholars, students, and practitioners navigating a post-Chevron landscape, the book offers a practical framework for judging accountability when decision-making is automated or outsourced, clarifying responsibilities for transparency, due process, and effective oversight.
