> Dear fellow internet reseachers,
> 
> for next year's conference in Sussex, I would like to put together a 
> panel on identity and transnational netspaces. I am interested in the 
> dynamics of diaspora groups and the formation of identity in 
> connection with global or indeed local communication on over with the 
> internet.
> 
> As I am involved in such a project focusing on the russian migrant 
> and diaspora community and their relation to Russia, through 
> discourses, activism, political engagement and literature I would 
> like to explore this theme a little further and go beyond the simple 
> use of Internet by minority groups - are they indeed minority, when 
> present on the Internet?! - and look at the dynamics of 
> communications and diaspora/migrant groups.
> 
> Would anybody be interested in exploring these issues? I thought of a 
> panel of 3-4 papers, with a lively discussion on theory and practice, 
> maybe more a discussion panel session than a consecutive presentation 
> of longer papers...
> 
> Awaiting your ideas and comments and maybe contributions....
