Computer-mediated communication. Democracy perspectives between technologies and digital divide
Abstract
Computer-mediated communication is a complex phenomenon, in the sense that its features depend on the IT tools used on the Internet for communication purposes. Studies on computer-mediated communication have focused the attention not only on the technological aspects that is, those which allow interacting with a virtual environment, but also on the substantial changes that telematics has brought to communication and to interpersonal relationships. The transition from “face to face” communication to computer-mediated communication creates a progressive rarefaction of meta-communicative elements (facial expression, tone of voice, posture) and of the possibility to adapt and correct the communication; this rarefaction involves as well responsibility, inhibition and identity itself. With computer-mediated communication, e-Democracy offers a possibility to reconsider the same politics and the legal rules, even though the new technologies’ potential can also outline scenarios that have nothing to do with democratic processes (new concentrations of powers, new inequalities, monopolies of knowledge).
