A New Cultural Economy Symposium IV
Politics and Collective Action in Modern Open Society
Georgia Popplewell (TT)
The Internet enables people to participate without asking for permission and provides a voice and communication tools to everyone. The “public” has evolved from “subjects” to a semi-conscious “public” to an actively engaged and self-organizing sphere capable of non-violent collective action at a global scale. In this session, we will discuss how free speech and global voices challenge the existing establishment. We will see examples of the use of advanced communication technologies by activists. We will also discuss how these organizations form and manage themselves.
