THE USE OF THE INTERNET IN RURAL TERRITORIES:
Midiatizations in the semi-arid region of Paraiba
Living with the Semi-Arid. Midiatization. Habitus.
The use of the Internet in non-urban territories is still seen by the population as precarious and exotic. Traditional communities, especially peasants, quilombolas and indigenous people have been living with this reality for some time. And, according to the intended identity / territorial objective, communication in virtual spaces may be appropriate to represent an unprecedented protagonism. In the last decades, the rural Northeastern subjects cross a paradigmatic epistemological transition by empowering the peasants of the region to lead their own destiny through the territorial policy of living with the semi-arid. The objective of this research is to identify in the rural territories of the semi-arid region of Paraíba, in the region of Cariri Oriental, with the Coal Collective, how the first digital generation appropriates communication and information technologies. To do so, we will conduct a theoretical reading inserted the territorial paradigm in the context of globalization, the mediatization in rural territories historically excluded from the infocommunication process and finally, through Bourdieu's concept of habitus, how and if this paradigm makes sense in rural young people and reflected in social practices in their territories.
