AULA ABERTA

"The Rise of New PlaNET (international communication 2.0) and the Trends of Emerging web-native world".

Prof. Kazimierz Krzysztofek, PhD

(Institute of Sociology, University of Bialystok, Poland)

Data: 3ª Feira - 23 Março de 2010 das 14 às 17h.

Local: Universidade do Minho, Complexo Pedagógico 3 - Gualtar. Sala 3.301

I - Rise of the Global Communication 2.0: From Institutions to Networks

The lecture is meant at giving an answer to important question what kind of culture is emerging in international networks, what cultural activities of people on the net are like and what future they will create, how they will feature the international communication thus tracking the future trends of social and cultural development, in what degree this will be a continuity and in what measure new cultures will change the world in generations to come. International communication as a term seems a bit obsolete as we do not really know what the very word “nation” means nowadays. That is why when talking about communication 2.0 the “global communication” seems more relevant.

II. Emerging web native world: cultural and institutional time lag

Here I attempt at answering a question what a new quality the present day Web–coined 2.0 – creates as a product of digital network technologies of cooperation and user generated contents. The Author reflects on the nature of this emergent phenomenon: to what extent it is an open participatory system of information/knowledge creation and distribution beyond markets and corporations, in what measure a new system of market regulation and in what degree a self-regulating and self-poietic system to use the Niklas Luhman’s term, and, finally, what cultural and institutional change it brings about. To get a better grip of the nature of this change a general conceptual framework has to be conceived that is based on legitimate principles of power and freedom in networks.
