Cyberspace Is No Place for Tribalism.
Howe, Craig
WICAZO SA Review, v13 n2 p19-28 Fall 1998
Because the Internet is independent of spatial location and users are anonymous, it is nondiscriminatory. American Indians may find the Internet useful for educating outsiders about historical realities, but its use within tribal communities is another matter. The universalism and individualism of this powerful, deceptive technology are antithetical to the particular localities, societies, moralities, and experiences that constitute tribalism. (TD)
