Research References
We are getting many requests from researchers, but the results of these projects very rarely make their way back to "the indymedia community". Googling indymedia research in 2004 brings up quite a lot. Some of these references still need to be merged into:

- Lee Salter: "Structure and Forms of Use: a contribution to understanding the ?effects? of the Internet on deliberative democracy". Forthcoming in "Information, Communication and Society", 2004. This paper argues that the Internet is not passive, but is shaped by the ways in which it is used. Such an account emphasises the fact that certain forms of use may well conflict, leading to a struggle to define the technology, peoples' relation to it, and thus the ways in which it is used. An analysis of the IMC makes up a large section of the paper.

Summary: This paper explores the degree to which the IMC network has engendered alternatives to the patriarchal and imperialist conceptions of the world presented in transnational corporate mainstream media. The IMC challenge to corporate media occurs through both its mediated texts and its production processes. A textual analysis of features during the 2003 Iraq war demonstrates the use of gender as a tool used by both pro-war and anti-war participants in the IMC, perpetuating patriarchal and ethnocentric images. IMC’s production process goals seem to most directly challenge hierarchical and imperialist structures, although there appears to be much work yet to do.

IonNec - 23 Nov 2005 Alster changed the name. I fixed the broken link in the
ImcEssayCollection?. I'd prefer the old one since this is not about imc research in the uk. But doesn't matter, the references need to be transferred to the global essay collection anyway
