[Air-L] media environment / Internet as ecosystem

[Liam Berriman]

Hi Emiliano,

You might find the following websites relevant;

http://www.macospol.com/

http://www.govcom.org/

The research papers connected to these projects relate to political/social
movements and issue networks online. There's also some interesting work on
techniques of visualising issue networks through mapping hyperlinks etc.

All the best,

Liam

> Hi everyone,

> In my PhD dissertation I'm focusing on the relations between social
> movements and the media, especially the Internet. I need some help in
> bibliography with regard to two topics:
> 1. the concept of media environment, mediascape, media ecology, etc.
> I'm considering the whole media repertoire of activists and not just
> focus on one specific medium.
> 2. the conceptualization of Internet not as a simple medium: I need
> some hints on papers, books and theories addressing the complexity of
> the Internet as an environment, an ecology that cannot be reduced to a
> unique technological block.
>
> Thanks a lot.
