Birmnia Campaign

Activists of the Birmnia are dispersed around the United States and around of the world, but, because of Internet, is joined in block (net). For the action ‘ was created one; ‘ community virtual’ ‘ acted of adjusted form, a time saw its members a series of chances in the selective acquisition. To co-ordinate a campaign of this type through traditional telephone it would practically have been impossible due to necessity to quickly act and the involved distances in pure physics. Moreover, because the Internet allows to fast exchange them of messages or to send the same information the hundreds of receivers in the whole world, the activists are in better conditions to co-ordinate with a bigger number of individuals and to perfect ideas. ‘ ‘ Listservs’ ‘ as BurmNet particularly they are adjusted for a fast reflection, therefore an only individual can send an idea in an email and quickly it can receive feedback from many different sources. ‘ ‘ A handful of organizadores quickly can generate sets of ten of letters and e-mails for the decisores, ‘ ‘ cyber’ ‘ , with some well-chronometered resources online. The number of involved people in a campaign it does not matter in such a way, can be sufficiently small as in other activities, such as manifestations and protests. This seems to be a been revolutionary of things.

Perhaps for the first time, the Internet allowed members of the international community to comment and to affect the legislation a privilege, a time reserved for lobbyists. This can be called ‘ ‘ diplomacy cibernticos’ ‘. The Internet fast places the information at the hands of the organizadores. The Internet allows a fast response of a successful effort. The organizadores of Internet can immediately share a successful campaign its profits (or not) with strategies co-ordinated in any place of the globe. A success in a locality if does not translate success in the other automatically, because the local conditions and factors are different.
