Occupy Movement


“The Occupy Movement is an international protest movement directed towards social

and economic inequality, its primary goal being to make the economic structure and

power relations in contemporary society more fair. Different local groups have different

focus, but among the prime concerns is the claim that big corporations and the global

financial system control the world in an unstable way that disproportionately benefits a

minority and is undermining democracy”. Freedom of expression, Technology & New

Doll “protesters” in Russia


“Police in the Siberian city of Barnaul have asked prosecutors to

investigate the legality of a recent protest that saw dozens of small

dolls – teddy bears, Lego men, South Park figurines – arranged to

mimic a protest, complete with signs reading: "I'm for clean elections"

and "A thief should sit in jail, not in the Kremlin". (Source http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2012/jan/26/doll-protesters-problem-russian-police.) Galley: http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/gallery/2012/jan/26/russia-human

The Association of Organized Women of Eastern Antioquia in Colombia


“The march of light” in

Granada town

(Eastern Antioquia)

“The march of light strategy is a symbolic mechanism related to women whose lives

have been affected by the armed conflict. It aims to encourage women to externalise

the personal effects that the war has had upon them and to transform the “victim

condition” into the “citizenship condition”. For this group, the women‟s identity is a

precondition to “democratize the pain”, create new narratives and other memories of

the conflict and reconfigure the social imaginaries of women in Colombia”. (Source: Tamayo, C. (2010) “Communicative Citizenship, another dimension of rights. Nottingham: University of Nottingham)

Epilogue


Global Citizenship, Social Media and Censorship

The „social media should be

censored‟ arguments are:

Social media can be used to organise

mass violence: instant messaging

services fuelled the London riots.

False rumours can spread like wildfire

and sow panic. Tweets about gunmen

attacking schools in Mexico allegedly

led to 26 car crashes.

Parents can choose to block adult

websites on a child’s computer, but

they can’t currently block pornography

on a social network.

The anti-argument says:

Authoritarian governments often shut

down social networks. If democracies

do the same, they can hardly preach

to dictators.

Rescue services increasingly rely on

social networks for real-time

information during emergencies. Any

restrictions could cost lives.

Nobody supports blanket censorship

for books, films or the press any

more. Social media are no different in

principle from other media.
