"Ce recueil d'ethnographies est né d'un partage d'expériences de terrain. Il rapproche les milieux sociaux les plus divers, des confins du Tibet à plusieurs pays d'Amérique latine (Argentine, Mexique, Cuba), de la Chine aux banlieues de Paris, en passant par la Grande-Bretagne et l'Espagne. L'ambition a été de repenser ensemble les manières d'observer, de décrire et de rendre intelligibles les observations en immersion. Durant huit années de séminaire et d'atelier nous avons travaillé en commun les notes de terrain et leur restitution écrite. Le Pouvoir des Gouvernés présente le résultat de cette expérimentation. Les textes répondent à une exigence radicale de compréhension interne aux milieux des enquêtés, suivant leurs perspectives et leurs expressions locales. L'idée même de journal de terrain a été reprise et repensée en conséquence. Progressivement, la question du pouvoir des gouvernés a émergé. Quels que soient les régimes politiques, démocratiques ou dictatoriaux, se sont dessinées, au fil des descriptions, des manières de faire valoir des exigences de justice à travers le monde. Des barrières de signification séparent les gouvernants des gouvernés. Les manières de les franchir, ici minutieusement décrites, révèlent l'exercice, malgré tout, du pouvoir des gouvernés. Auteurs-enquêteurs : Nasiha Aboubeker, Stéphane Baciocchi, Kamel Boukir, Alain Cottereau, Xénia de Heering, Marie-Paule Hille, Erwan Le Méner, Ariane Mak, Margalida Mulet Pascual, Irene Ramos Gil, Pia Valeria Rius, Eduard Rodriguez Martin, et un auteur, membre d'un jury d'assises, tenu à l'anonymat."

Information and computer technologies are used every day by real people with real needs. The authors contributing to Shaping the Network Society describe how technology can be used effectively by communities, activists, and citizens to meet society's challenges. In their vision, computer professionals are concerned less with bits, bytes, and algorithms and more with productive partnerships that engage both researchers and community activists. These collaborations are producing important sociotechnical work that will affect the future of the network society.Traditionally, academic research on real-world users of technology has been neglected or even discouraged. The authors contributing to this book are working to fill this gap; their theoretical and practical discussions illustrate a new orientation -- research that works with people in their natural social environments, uses common language rather than rarefied academic discourse, and takes a pragmatic perspective. The topics they consider are key to democratization and social change. They include human rights in the "global billboard society"; public computing in Toledo, Ohio; public digital culture in Amsterdam; "civil networking" in the former Yugoslavia; information technology and the international public sphere; "historical archaeologies" of community networks; "technobiographical" reflections on the future; libraries as information commons; and globalization and media democracy, as illustrated by Indymedia, a global collective of independent media organizations.
