Abstract
Scholars researching the field of E-politics have been interested in the potential of the Internet to enable individual self-expression, as well as, to facilitate the linking of citizens and political institutions by creating a new space to discuss politics. The Internet has also been hailed for its ability to increase civil engagement by creating new forms of political participation. In conclusion, all these new conditions have been considered useful for strengthening democracies by strengthening political participation.
