本文聚焦于全球正义运动使用电脑媒介传播,特别关注参与运动的组织及其行动者。我们研究了在两次超国家抗议活动中收集的数据:2001年7月热那亚的反八国集团抗议活动和2002年11月佛罗伦萨的欧洲社会论坛(ESF)。在这两种情况下,我们都对热那亚社会论坛和ESF网站进行了分析,并对活动人士进行了调查,包括他们使用互联网的问题。然后,我们考察了关于新技术在集体行动中引入的变化的假设。互联网以以下方式赋予社会运动力量:(a)纯粹的工具方式(为“资源贫乏”的行动者提供额外的后勤资源),(b)抗议功能(直接表达抗议);(c)象征性(作为有利于集体行为者识别过程的媒介)和(d)认知性(告知和敏感公众舆论)。
This article focuses on the use of Computer-Mediated Communication by the movement for global justice, with special attention to the organisations involved in the movement and its activists. We examined data collected during two supranational protest events: the anti-G8 protest in Genoa in July 2001 and the European Social Forum (ESF) in Florence in November 2002. In both cases, we have complemented an analysis of the Genoa Social Forum and ESF websites with a survey of activists, including questions about their use of the Internet. We then examine hypotheses about changes new technologies introduce in collective action. The Internet empowers social movements in: (a) purely instrumental ways (an additional logistical resource for ‘resource-poor’ actors), (b) a protest function (direct expression of protest); (c) symbolically (as a medium favouring identification processes in collective actors) and (d) cognitively (informing and sensitising public opinion).
