AB - We explore the issues on online political participation study in Korea compared with international one. More specifically, we characterize Korea’s study trends as focusing on “who”is participating while international studies center on what the new “forms”of online political participation are. In other words, domestic studies try to show that online media play a role as a factor promoting bottom-up model of civic participation. Moreover, this function of online media is stimulated by the rapid growing of civic participation during democratization and citizens’deep disapproval of political institutions since then. However, previous studies are more interested in the expansion of participants, in particular, ordinary people. Therefore, the themes on conceptualizing and categorizing the online political participation seem to have been treated lightly. In this perspective, we need to view online political participation in a more multidimensional manner. In addition, we should pay attention to“ those who do not participate”as well as“ those who participate”in politics. Because the current media environment more tends to provoke citizens’political indifference than ever before. If it comes to that, we will be likely to face the circumstances worrying the democratic divide beyond the digital divide.
