Abstract:
Fabio Malini and Henrique Antoun are researchers and political activists. They wrote a book under the heat of the manifestations that took the streets of major Brazilian cities, in June 2013. They released their book in August, only two months after the heyday of the movement, reaching a speed that set, at the same time, the strength and limits of the work. They begin their narrative summarizing the history of cyberspace and cyberculture, and discover a meeting place between the streets and digital networks, a phenomenon capable of mobilizing and drawing new routes for political action.
