Abstract On the basis of a comparative analysis of nine network movements which use the Internet as a central means of coordination and have emerged after the foundation of the Plurinational State of Bolivia, we identify common organizational characteristics in their structure, format and functions. These features display a new type of emergent organization, open and modular, which supports collective action and shows the nascent power of individual participation in networks in this country.
