Conclusion: the extraordinary ordinariness of Alto Hospicio -- Appendix 1. Social media questionnaire.Based on 15 months of ethnographic research in the city of Alto Hospicio in northern Chile, this book describes how the residents use social media, and the consequences of this use in their daily lives. Nell Haynes argues that social media is a place where Alto Hоѕрісіођ́ةs residents ђ́أ or Hospice©łos ђ́أ express their feelings of marginalisation that result from living in city far from the national capital, and with a notoriously low quality of life compared to other urban areas in Chile. In actively distancing themselves from residents in cities such as Santiago, Hospice©łos identify as marginalised citizens, and express a new kind of social norm. Yet Haynes finds that by contrasting their own lived experiences with those of people in metropolitan areas, Hospice©łos are strengthening their own sense of community and the sense of normativity that shapes their daily lives. This exciting conclusion is illustrated by the range of social media posts about personal relationships, politics and national citizenship, particularly on Facebook.Why we post.InternetSocial aspectsInformation societyEconomic aspectsInternetSocial aspects.Information societyEconomic aspects.303.4833Haynes Nell955223NjHacINjHaclBOOK9910669801603321Social media in northern Chile2160682UNINA
