| Tiivistelmä: | In this article, the role of the Internet is examined in the processes of organisation and mobilisation of a sporting subculture related to rights to enjoy the countryside for recreation. It is reported on findings from a qualitative survey of chat room postings surrounding claims made by canoeists for better access to inland waterways in England and Wales of the U.K. The findings question claims about the power of the Internet to shape and realize democratic participation, indicating instead that it supports wider hegemonic relationships constraining sporting activity etc. |
