Abstract
En America Latina se han desarrollado redes comunitarias de internet en diversos territorios como respuesta a la desconexion, pero atendiendo a su vez las problematicas que atanen a la diferencia y desigualdad de sus comunidades durante la ultima decada. La diversidad de estas experiencias encuentra como punto en comun la creacion, propiedad y administracion colectiva, comunitaria y sin fin de lucro de la infraestructura que despliegan. Este articulo indaga sobre los modos de apropiacion que se producen en estas redes, desde la creacion tecnologica y los aprendizajes, usos y practicas adaptadas o creativas que no fueron pensados en el momento de su diseno. Para ello se analiza la creacion de tecnologia con el LibreRouter, que desarrollo AlterMundi de Argentina; la formacion destinada a dar soporte a estas experiencias que brinda el Diplomado Techio Comunitario de Redes AC de Mexico y los usos y practicas relevados en dos redes comunitarias, Quintana Libre y Atalaya Sur en Cordoba y Buenos Aires, Argentina, respectivamente. De esta forma, se busca generar conocimiento para tomar en consideracion no solo las respuestas que brindan las redes comunitarias de internet en materia de conectividad en America Latina, sino tambien para la apropiacion de tecnologias de sus comunidades. Technology Appropriation in Latin American Internet Community NetworksIn Latin America, internet community networks have been developed in various territories in response to lack of connectivity but also to address those issues that have affected the difference and inequality of their communities over the past decade. The diversity of these experiences shares some common factors: collective, community-serving and non-profit creation, ownership and administration of the infrastructures deployed. This article inquires into how technology appropriation takes place in these networks, from technological creation to adapted or creative ways of learning, using and developing practices that were not initially intended at the time of their design. For this, three cases are analyzed: the creation of technology with LibreRouter developed by AlterMundi in Argentina; the training aimed at supporting these experiences offered by the Diploma course Techio Comunitario by Redes A.C. in Mexico; and the uses and practices surveyed in two community networks, Quintana Libre and Atalaya Sur in Cordoba and Buenos Aires, Argentina, respectively. In this way, this paper seeks to produce knowledge to examine not only the responses provided by Internet community networks in terms of connectivity in Latin America but also to look into the appropriation of technologies in their communities.
