"Radical Democracy and the Internet "provides a systematic and
mutual interrogation of radical democratic theory and Internet
practice. Contributors critically examine a range of radical
democratic theories in relation to online communication, from
deliberative to agonistic to autonomist Marxist, and explore how
such communication may be advancing democracy beyond what is
conceptualized and practised within present liberal-capitalist
political contexts. The result is an important contribution to both
democratic theory and new media studies, and essential reading in
politics, media studies, communications, and sociology.
In the final years of the seventeenth century, Richard Traunter-an
experienced Indian trader fluent in three Indigenous languages-made
a number of trips into the interior of Virginia and the Carolina
colonies, keeping a record of his travels and the people he
encountered. This primary-source edition of Traunter's account
makes his crucial text, held in private collections for more than
three hundred years, widely available for the first time.
Traunter's journals shed light on colonial society, Indigenous
cultures, and evolving politics, offering a precious glimpse into a
world in dramatic transition. He describes rarely referenced Native
peoples, details diplomatic efforts, and relates the dreadful
impact of a smallpox epidemic then raging through the region. In
concert with Eno Will, the head man at Ajusher who accompanied
Traunter on both treks, Traunter also helped establish trade pacts
with eight Indigenous nations. Part natural history, part adventure
tale, all expertly contextualized by Sandra Dahlberg, Traunter's
narrative provides a unique vantage point through which to view one
of the most important periods in the colonial South and represents
an invaluable resource for students and specialists alike.
