La Télé-démocratie 1Depuis les « techno-discours » qui, « à des niveaux culturels et idéologiques très divers, viennent activer et dynamiser la puissance de la technique, en célébrant ses vertus et presque son culte » (Janicaud, 1985) jusqu'aux analyses très ponctuelles consacrées à telle ou telle expérience, les nouvelles technologies de la communication ont engendré toute une gamme de discours prospectifs et/ou récapitulatifs qui méritent l'attention. Parmi eux, nombreux sont ceux qui portent plus spécialement sur les implications que ces technologies peuvent avoir dans le domaine politique. En particulier, leurs relations avec une amélioration éventuelle du fonctionnement de la démocratie ont été largement étudiées, dans le cadre d'une réflexion sur ce que l'on peut appeler la télé-démocratie. 2Le développement des nouvelles technologies de communication a été relativement peu étudié sous l'angle de ses incidences sociales. Les réseaux de convivialité. La citoyenneté.

Vecam - Réflexion et action pour l'internet citoyen Lessig Blog, v2 On Tuesday, Berkeley City Council adopted unanimously an ordinance inspired by Councilman Max Anderson, and which I and Robert Post helped craft. I was very happy to bat cleanup in an effort that has been underway for years. But there’s some serious misunderstanding about the ordinance and its purpose. No doubt many of the people fighting for the ordinance have a firm belief that non-ionizing radiation presents a significant and underappreciated health risk. Those people believe this for different reasons. Some believe it because of personal experience: The letter from the mother who lost a daughter who carried her cellphone in her bra, and who then was discovered to have four cancerous lumps perfectly mirroring where her phone had been carried, is a letter from someone who believes this because there’s no other way for her to understand her loss. These are all people who believe there is a risk that is not yet acknowledged. I am not a scientist. Likewise, here’s the Blackberry statement:

The Future of Ideas The Future of Ideas: The Fate of the Commons in a Connected World (2001) is a book by Lawrence Lessig, at the time of writing a professor of law at Stanford Law School, who is well known as a critic of the extension of the copyright term in US.[1] It is a continuation of his previous book Code and Other Laws of Cyberspace, which is about how computer programs can restrict freedom of ideas in cyberspace. While copyright helps artists get rewarded for their work, Lessig warns that a copyright regime that is too strict and grants copyright for too long a period of time (e.g. the current US legal climate) can destroy innovation, as the future always builds on the past.[2] Lessig also discusses recent movements by corporate interests to promote longer and tighter protection of intellectual property in three layers: the code layer, the content layer, and the physical layer. The code layer is that which is controlled by computer programs. Editions[edit] References[edit] External links[edit]
