mobile communication and social movements  

Definición

  • A notable development in contemporary social movements is the usage of mobile communication devices, which not only facilitate grassroots mobilization and coordination but also, arguably, transform the social movements themselves. This development has resulted from the unprecedented diffusion of portable technologies such as the Palm Pilot, global positioning system, and especially the mobile phone.
