Can anyone direct me to significant literature regarding what
constitutes old political activism vs new activism--particularly
insofar
as its organisation, structure and implementation is concerned?  Of
interest is how (and whether) the Internet plays a role in what some
are
calling a new (global?) activism.
 
Alternatively, if you think there's nothing particularly new about
activism, I'd be interested in that as well...
 
I realise this is a fairly broad question, but your responses needn't
be similarly expansive--just a quick thought here or there would be
greatly appreciated!
