MENESES CABRERA, Tania; MARTINEZ GARCIA, Carlos Andrés e DUARTE, José Alfonso. Gender Struggles on the Internet, a Look from Virtual Ethnography. rev.latinoam.bioet. [online]. 2021, vol.21, n.2, pp.57-73. Epub 31-Dez-2021. ISSN 1657-4702. https://doi.org/10.18359/rlbi.5182.
This text presents the results of a research on Cyberculture and Resistance: gender struggles on the internet, which aimed to study digital practices as contemporary actions of social movements, particularly the practices of those who work for sexual and reproductive rights in Latin America and its link with social bioethics as a comprehensive dimension of cultural tensions. The theoretical foundation presents cyberspace as a socio-political, cultural, and economic scenario. The methodological design proposed virtual ethnography to characterize the emergence of digital citizenship forms through gender cyberactivism. Practices of twenty-five social organizations in total were analyzed, with three specific profiles: feminist, new masculinities, and sexual diversity, in five Latin American countries. Facebook, Twitter, and webpages are observed through a virtual ethnography kit designed by the project, which included registration sheets, an image bank and different multimedia material. The results present the analysis of textual and visual narratives of these practices, both in their bioethical and political dimension. It demonstrated how digital activism facilitated the occupation of public space in the information society and the generation of processes for political participation with emerging stakeholders and actions outside conventional practices.
