Evolution of e-democracy
1) THE INTERNET, A NEW POLITICAL PARADIGM
New Technologies e-Democracy
New and better possibilities to exercise our rights: e-Politics New forms to do politics
e-Vote e-Citizenship
Imagining Internet as a political instrument to convince and to activate citizenship.
Examples: Make Poverty History
all the e-mails about political, social or cultural revendications
THE IDEA OF “PASS THE WORD” IS VERY POWERFUL
The new political theory :
OPC’s: Online Political Citizens
Nowadays OPC’s represents 7% of American Population
10% of European Population
An example:
In the U.S.A,
only 50% of citizens are active in political discussions and debates
only 50% of citizens practice their duty of vote
BUT THE GREAT MAJORITY OF CITIZENS ARE ACTIVE USERS OF THE INTERNET. ONLINE POLITICAL CITIZENS HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY OF REACTIVATING A POPULATION TOO MUCH APATHETICAL.
2) THE POWER OF BLOGOSPHERE
500 blogs in 1995
15 millions of blogs in 2004
Something is moving… (The wall street journal, The Times…)
The example of French Referendum(Franck Ghitalla’s Report)
295 sites about Referendum specifically
161 against the positive vote versus 79 defending YES.
YES was more important in TV but the NO dominated the INTERNET.
The French Referendum proves that exists a relation between ELECTRONIC ACTIVISM and FINAL RESULTS of one’s political campaign.
Vote YES
Vote NO
Different examples of the relation between blogs and how to do politics…
