Abstract:

The future of the digital revolution is being disputed. On one side are

the ones who fight for the freedom of the knowledge, proposing free

circulation of information through the Internet; on the other side are

the powerful economical and political interests, trying to block the

socialization of the knowledge and to make the Internet yet another

ground for capital acumulation and reprodution of the inequality
