nettodipoli

Nettodipoli is a Finnish concept that refers to a type of participatory democracy or micro-politics that has gained popularity in the 2010s, particularly among the younger generation.

The term "nettot" is a Finnish word that translates to "network" or "group of people connected by the internet". It is often used in a context that refers to a collective or a group of people who come together online to discuss and debate issues. The term "dipoli" is derived from the Finnish word for "politics", which in this context refers to the participatory and collaborative nature of the online spaces.

Netto dipoli has its roots in the digital activism movement in Finland, where activists and ordinary citizens have used social media and online platforms to organize protests, campaigns, and peer-to-peer fundraising. This movement has led to a shift in the way Finnish citizens engage with politics and has encouraged more participatory and inclusive forms of governance.

The key features of nettodipoli include the use of online platforms for mobilization and organization, as well as the emphasis on peer-to-peer activism and collaboration. Nettodipoli has been characterized as a form of "digital nonviolent resistance", which refers to the use of digital tools to resist main political systems. The concept has gained international attention and has inspired similar movements and initiatives in other countries.

Despite its growing popularity, nettodipoli is still a relatively new and evolving concept, and its long-term impact on Finnish politics and society remains to be seen.
