editorialreviews

Information and Communications Technologies (ICTs) are now an inescapable part of everyday life as well as an integral element to large scale political-economic change. In this close-up study of pioneering and longstanding Internet discussion forums, M.I. Franklin explores the practice of everyday life in cyberspace. The author traces how the online practices and discussions of postcolonial and diasporic communities rearticulate the gendered, political, ethnic and cultural dimensions of daily lives, political and cultural issues on the ground. In a neoliberal global era, however, the possibilities for intercultural and intracultural empowerment emerging through these sorts of Internet uses have to contend with political-economic and sociocultural pressures from all sides. Franklin argues that Pacific traversals in public, open cyberspace trace another possible future for the Internet; more hospitable and equitable than the one being currently put in place by political and economic power-brokers.

This book will be of interest to students of international relations/international political economy, anthropology, cultural studies, science and technology studies.
