Yup, as the title suggest in the 8th lecture we had Stephen Stockwell speak about the Political Possibilities of the net.
Democracy is... basically free speech.
Stockwell explained the two very different forms of internet politics: eDemocracy -the contribution of the internet to real world politics - and CyberPolitics - the polictics of the net.
There was also mention of the gaps in mass media, and the internet being a very suitable, if not the only, medium in which the gaps can be filled. Power to the people? :)
