Technopolitics, connective action and convergent activism: Emerging communication practices from ecosocial struggles

Abstract

This article draws on the notion of technopolitics to analyze the reconfiguration of collective networked action of eco-social activism, based on the study of #SOSPuebloShuar on Twitter. Through the method of social network analysis, the main political actors and their relationships are mapped, as a strategy to characterize the connective action that preconfigures a collaborative and convergent activism, based on ethno-cultural, ecological-territorial and human rights claims.
