Internet meets society New media new politics? Information is the currency of democracy Thomas Jefferson Dr Craig Bellamy VeRSI, University of Melbourne, 9 Aug, 2010

Key Issues Why is the web important for politics (history) What are its political features? How does politics work in a Web 1.0 and Web 2.0? (case studies)

History A post apocalyptic command grid The domain name system (DNS)

Internet Governance: DNS and ICANN What is DNS (Domain Name System) The Domain Name System (abbreviated DNS) is an Internet directory service. DNS is how domain names are translated into web addresses, and DNS also controls delivery. If your computer cannot access DNS, your web browser will not be able to find web sites, and you will not be able to receive or send etc. What is ICANN (Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers)

Why is the Internet Political? Interactivity Open publishing Recent developments, RSS feeds, pod casting, twitter, facebook, open data…

How does the Internet impact upon the politics? Setting the agenda in other media

Specific Case Studies (s11 protests sep. 2000) realjeff.com (1999 Victorian State Elections) EngageMedia G20 Protests London Major parties (archived sites can be found on the Wayback Machine (Australia)

S11.org Sep-14// Logistical organisation of protest (important in terms of bringing diverse groups together) Bypass traditional media gate keeping The communication of alternative political ideas Influenced how the protest was reported Use of tactical media stunts

Realjeff.com (archived at the National Libraries Pandora Project) 24/ Used the tactic of riding on the back of the publicity of during the 1999 Victorian State Election The alternative site perhaps gained more publicity than the authentic site

How are the major parties using the Internet?

Concluding Comments Internet first true interactive media. Interactivity all is an underlying principle of the Internet (that must be preserved). The Internet has dramatically opened up access to political information (Hansards, press releases, newspapers, speeches, party policies, etc.) Arguably the major broadcasting companies and governments have done very little in terms of innovation on the network (government is usually about downloading forms etc.) most political-communication innovation may be coming from non-government groups
