ABSTRACT
This chapter briefly identifies cultural vocabularies in the political Internet on the background of the data analysed for discussions across various chapters. It is an in-depth examination of certain identified vocabularies of interest to political Internet. Social science of Internet has recently produced many cultural vocabularies. Such vocabularies excavated in this book as part of the political Internet was born in relation to the power of Internet in dismantling the old social cleavages in our social architecture. Unfortunately such vocabularies did not figure out prominently in the social studies of Internet. Therefore, this chapter fills in the gap. A social study of Internet-related vocabularies and its linkages with social and political life of the nation is attempted in the chapter. Considering the possibilities of Internet-related vocabularies of interest to social studies of technology, it may be useful to revisit vocabularies of political Internet in a convenient manner. Primarily, what figures out at the outset is Internet of Things (IoT). What kind of changes IoT would bring into cultural vocabularies of activism and political engagement? Will new kinds of techno-rich resistance vocabularies reconfigure lived-in realities of underprivileged people. Can new resistance vocabularies of social media age do away with oppressive social system coming out of social structure? The following is an attempt to track them, though not substantively but literally.
