Abstract/Index

Research methodology. Unravelling the history of hacktivism. A taxonomy of hacktivism by its goals, not by its -ism. Hacker ex machina: the birth of hacker culture. From the net to the network society: the dawn of a new digital age. Enough is too much: the rise of hacktivism. The acme of hacktivism: anonymous and WikiLeaks. And now, you have got our attention. The development of the 5-star movement. From the firmament to the parliament: the rise of the 5-star movement in the Italian historical context. Each one counts one, someone counts two: the organisational structure of the 5 Star Movement, from ideal to hypocrisy. That blurred boundary between being on the net and falling into the net: the online experience of the 5-Star Movement. Falling stars. A critical comparison between the two case studies through hyper-historical lenses. Repositioning the human being in hyper-history. The history of the hyper-history. From digital utopias to political realities: techno-utopianism and techno-libertarianism. Democracy hacked: netizenship, power and participation in the digital realm.
