Reflections on new and old actors

Some of the so called new or emerging groups that come up during the discussion are the diaspora, CSR, new media and the sad and lonely people who use the new media. We heard from the speakers at the Dialogue how new media like FB and twitter helped activist in Iran and Syria which in some sense is redefining new forms of activism. We also heard the downside of how companies like Google or Nokia can make one very traceable and hence vulnerable as well.
