[Air-l] Online Activism -- empirical research references?

[Noriko Hara]

Dear Paul,

I meant to send you e-mail earlier, but I was busy finishing up the 
semester (i.e., grading).

Here are some of my own works that would be of interest to you:

Hara, N., & Estrada, Z. C.  (2005). Analyzing the mobilization of grassroots activities via the Internet: A case study.
 Journal of Information Science, 31(6), 503-514.  Also published in FirstMonday, 8(12). 
http://firstmonday.org/issues/issue8_12/hara/index.html

Hara, N., & Shachaf, P. (in press). Online peace movement organizations: A 
comparative analysis. In I. Chen & T. Kidd (Eds.). Social information 
technology: Connection society and cultural issues. Hershey, PA: Idea Group.
Preprint is available at: http://ella.slis.indiana.edu/~nhara/paper/HaraShachaf-peace.pdf

The second article includes a section of future research directions and further readings.

I am currently working on a paper about MoveOn's grassroots campaigns during 2004. 

Hope this helps,

Noriko
