United yet autonomous: Indymedia and the struggle to sustain a radical democratic network

Article Abstract:

Study is presented which explores how radical democratic practices get negotiated at the global IMC network level and whether it is sustainable and coherent in terms of the IMC's founding radical democratic principles, codified in what many IMC members consider to be their founding charter or constitution, the 'principles of unity'. Aided by the Internet, Indymedia network sustainability may require constant process-laden meetings to make such radical democracy work.
