| Summary: | <p>From the preliminary results of an ongoing research, this paper puts forward a reflection on the possibilities and limitations of participating in Internet.

On the other hand, it is stated that in spite of economic and social limitations conditioning the access to Internet, the integration in chains, nets and discussion forums can potentially develop public microspheres where significant matters are discussed by several individuals, minority groups and social movements.</p> |
