New Media and New Political Space in Croatia
Most contemporary accounts of new media imply an opportunity for users to participate in democratic activity. Such media are envisaged as a new democratic forum and are seen to offer the opportunity to enable new forms of political communication. This paper seeks to test the validity of such concepts in the context of the transition society of Croatia. First, the concept of political space is critically evaluated and defined. Second, the potential of new media to enable such space is examined with specific reference to a post-socialist society with rudimentary civic form. Old media were found to offer far greater opportunity for effective anti-systemic action in this particular situation. Such findings counter the dominant narrative of technology enabling civil society. Instead it is argued that the potential for development of new political space needs to be discussed within a local political, social and economic context.
