Electronic Advocacy Research 

This page is intended for researchers in the field of electronic advocacy. It contains links to materials on researching the Internet and Internet related phenomenon. This is an exciting new area to do research. There are a lot of ideas and a lot of opinions about what works and what people are using in their advocacy work.  Unfortunately, most of this is not based on empirical evidence. My goal is to change that situation in the future.
