The study of digital participation in culture. Towards an analytical proposal for the Cuban scenario
##plugins.themes.bootstrap3.article.details##
This work seeks to contribute to the understanding of the digital participation in the culture in the Cuban scenario. To do so, the main outcomes from a qualitative study on a concrete participation experience in Cuba are displayed and analyzed based on the Grounded Theory: a free software community. The research results allow to conceptualize the digital participation in the culture just in the way they occur in Cuba, i.e., a strongly contextualized process depending on the institutional environment where it is being developed. This digital participation enables a more comprehensive and productive understanding of the culture under a theoretical and conceptual view.
