The aim of the present study was to examine how locally situated social movements can use social media to deploy translocally networked forms of protests. The study looks at the Canadian Idle No More movement, an indigenous and environmental grassroots initiative that emerged around the end of 2012...

description The aim of the present study was to examine how locally situated social movements can use social media to deploy translocally networked forms of protests. The study looks at the Canadian Idle No More movement, an indigenous and environmental grassroots initiative that emerged around the end of 2012 and the beginning of 2013 as a reaction to previous neglect of indigenous groups and to the omnibus bill proposal C-45 (which threatened both the partial sovereignty of indigenous territories and the Canadian environment). Focusing on the -decentralized and heterogeneous- movement’s Twitter use in general, and the employment of the hashtag #idlenomore in particular, the study examines to which extent and how Twitter may be a means for establishing bonds between geographically dispersed social movements.

El objetivo del presente estudio es examinar cómo movimientos sociales locales pueden usar formulas de protesta traslocal en red. El estudio trata sobre el movimiento canadiense “Idle No More”, una iniciativa medioambiental indígena de base que emerge a finales del 2012 y principios de 2013 como reacción a la marginación de los grupos indígenas y a la propuesta de ley “omnibus” C-45 (que amenazaba tanto la soberanía de los territorios indígenas como el medioambiente canadiense). En relación con el habitualmente descentralizado y heterogéneo uso de Twitter , y en particular, con la forma de emplear el hashtag #idlenomore, el estudio examina en qué medida y cómo Twiter puede ser una forma de establecer lazos entre movimientos sociales dispersos geográficamente.
