Abstract

MARTINS, Fernanda Goulart  and  ROSO, Adriane. Observing collaborative production network: a possible methodological pathway. Aletheia [online]. 2015, n.46, pp. 222-235. ISSN 1413-0394.

The proposal of this article is to present a methodological path to think collaboration, cyber activism and subjectivity construction in the network society. The pathway is configured as a participant observation and it features the beginning of a research route in the master level, whose goal is to analyze how subjectivities are built on and how they are configured in the production of discourses on collaborative social spaces in the Internet. Based on the Heidegger hermeneutic tradition the process of participant observation was presented, written in a format that simulates a blog. In conclusion, participant observation enhances ways of seeing and doing research. Also, this study showed that collaborative productions have in their arrangements the reproduction of neoliberal capitalist values, but at the same time, in contrast, they have flight movements of this system. Flight movements can be seen by observing the search for collectivity in collaborative productions and the construction of proposals and actions to transform society.

Keywords : Internet; Participant observation; Collaboration.
