The Politics of the Internet
Lexington Books (Verlag)
978-1-4985-2521-3 (ISBN)
Maratea suggests that the Internet has not fundamentally changed how political activists attain cultural relevance. The press still largely determines what issues and activists are recognized by the public, and historically powerful claims-making groups, such as corporate lobbyists, are best positioned to succeed in a supposedly democratized new media world. The analysis offered in The Politics of the Internet will be of particular value to students and scholars of sociology, communications, and political science.
R.J. Maratea is assistant professor of criminal justice at New Mexico State University.
