Parteien im Web 1.5 – kontrollierte Partizipation
Die Wissenschaftler Darren G. Lilleker und Nigel Jackson kommen in ihrer Abhandlung über “Politicians and Web 2.0: the current bandwagon or changing the mindset? (PDF)” zu folgendem Fazit, das sich meiner Meinung nach nicht nur auf Parteien, sondern (bisher) auf fast alle politischen Akteure und ihre Web 2.0-Bemühungen übertragen lässt:
As a result, parties appear to have sought to adapt Web 2.0 to their needs, rather than
changing their modus operandi to meet the cultural norms of Web 2.0. Parties appear to have
recognised the limitations and weaknesses of Web 1.0 tools, but do not appear prepared or
able to adopt Web 2.0. Rather, they have developed their own approach, Web 1.5, as a
compromise solution. They recognise the important of allowing citizens the opportunity to
have their say, but they wish to be able to control the structure in which this occurs.
Therefore, Web 1.5 includes an element of interactivity, but it also includes one-way
monologue at the same time. Political parties have jumped on to the Web 2.0 bandwagon,
but they are using both the breaks and the reigns to steer the vehicle onto a route they feel
more comfortable with.
