Resumo: | This paper explores an issue rarely discussed in ciberculture studies: the use of mobile phones by low-income groups. Using the ethnographic method, I analyse the strategies employed by the dwellers of Morro São Jorge to exercise – rather precariously – their right to communication. I argue that such strategies engender new sociocultural practices that update older ones, especially regarding the use of public payphones and in the practice of making collect calls. |
