Cuban cyberspace: a form of resistance against power and censorship

Abstract

Based on the blog Generación Y, this reflection about the Cuban blogosphere as a resistant movement imprinted in the logic of the masses considers the concepts of biopower and biopolitics developed by Hardt and Negri. Our analysis of the aforementioned space reveals the creation of an acephalous and non-centered network of cooperation which is able to promote a more diffuse power amongst its participants. By allowing this kind of multiple and plural cooperation in search of a common goal, which, in this case, is opposition to the official press, the above-named cyberspace enables freedom of expression and the valorization of singularities.
