AB - This paper explores the theory of the citizen model that has emerged in the 21st century Internet environment. The paper starts with a discussion of "mediatization" and "emotionalization," which are perceived as mechanisms to motivate new citizen participation. It then explains the need to replace the dominant model of the informed citizen by reviewing contemporary discussions of mass media, Internet, and emotion. It proposes instead the term "emotional monitorial citizen" as the citizen model for the Internet. This citizen model highlights the influence of emotions on various participatory activities, which are reinforced in the Internet environment. This model indicates that citizens willparticipate in political activities when they judge the situation to be critical or in a "crisis." The study uses the term "hot cognition" to refer to the ability of emotions such as anger to activate a situation, with the Internet playing a key role in helping to trigger citizen action.
