ABSTRACT

So far, the Internet has been hailed as an instrument useful for  
facilitating political participation. A classic question arises: is  
this confirmed today? and if it is, how does this occur? This panel  
aims to address these questions, reflecting upon how the Internet is  
used to practice politics. The panel will propose empirical examples  
to investigate how the Internet both facilitates existing forms of  
political engagement and how it promotes new forms.
