Abstract
Digital harassment supposes the emergence of a process aimed at the destruction of the digital village. In this scenario, the deregulation of the State envisions citizen participation through electronic devices in order to generate ideas for Human Development. However, in any of the scenarios, digital exclusion or inclusion, the differences between resources and groups exacerbate the asymmetries between Internet users. The present work proposes that, in both contexts, gap or digital village, electronic harassment inhibits Human Development. A review of the theoretical and conceptual frameworks, as well as the findings reported in the state of knowledge, warns that harassment is generated by perceptions of opportunity that, when associated with expectations of compatibility, usefulness and ease, generate asymmetric relationships between cyberusers . Therefore, a model is proposed for the study of the phenomenon in order to open the discussion about the relevance of electronic devices in the diffusion of equity.
