From the Publisher:Cyberactivism documents and critiques the growing importance of activism taking place through the Internet. Mixing theory with practical activist approaches, the contributors show not only how activists have incorporated recent technology as a tool for change, but also how online activists have changed the definitions of activism, community, collective identity, and democratic change. Topics addressed range from the Zapatista movement's use of the Web to promote its cause globally to the establishment of alternative media sources like indymedia.org to the direct action of "hacktivists" who disrupt commercial computer networks. Cyberactivism is essential reading for anyone interested in understanding the impact of the Internet on politics today.
