TAMAYO, Camilo Andrés; DELGADO, Juan David  e  PENAGOS, Julián Enrique. Genesis of the Internet Field in Colombia: Setting up State-run Informational Relations. Signo pensam. [online]. 2009, vol.28, n.54, pp.238-264. ISSN 0120-4823.

The present article analyzes the social relations that allowed for the emergence of Internet in Colombia, following the theoretical proposal of the French sociologist Pierre Bourdieu. We look at the period 1986 - 2007, to show that the State was, in fact, the main agent in charge of dealing with a set of conditions that allowed for the competition among specific groups offering a service operating under the law of supply and demand. In other words, it was the most important actor to create the sort of conditions that made possible supply - and - demand interactions between agents. In the first part, we analyze the context of economic opening and market liberalization; in the second, the creation of the Comisión de Regulación de Telecomunicaciones and the Ministry of Communications; and finally, we examine more recent dynamics that have dissolved the internet field into the wider field of telecommunications field via the process of service convergence.

Palavras-chave : Internet; State; political capital; supply; demand; Bourdieu.
