Abstract: This work intends to support the thesis that netactivism can be read from three complementary concepts: 'Gift and Reciprocity', 'Against-State' and 'Commons'.We allege that it is the articulation between these three elements that allows for a broad understanding of politics in digital networks.In order to develop this idea, we propose a historical background of digital society.The methodology used in doing so is anchored in the principle of ecological affinities, which is used to discuss the historical context that brought us to this moment.We then divide netactivism into two distinct eras and, in conclusion, we present some expressions of politics and netactivism and what their repercussions on our daily lives are.
