Representative democracy suffers a legitimacy crisis because there are not enough deliberative spaces where citizens can participate. Given this, the new media of Information and Communication (TIC) (blogs, Twitter, Facebook, Web 2.0 and 3.0) present the opportunity to excel certain communicative and politic limits and with this aid democracy. The objective of this investigation explores the opportunities by investigating: which limits of citizen participation can be exceeded with social networks? Which are the platforms or social networks appropriate for the different objectives and procedures of citizen participation? The answers are approached with a conceptual theoretical analysis of citizen participation and the meaning of governance, and also with a practical operative description about the evolution of communicative means facing the public agenda. As a result the differentiation and evaluation of social networking sites working on different public spaces. Finally, the impact that social networks have and it's rights and forms of political participation is discussed.
