dc.description.abstractThe
 emerging
 field
 of
 national
 web
 studies
 aims
 to
 offer
 new
 perspectives 
on 
studying 
the 
internet:
 it
 calls
 for
 framing
 the 
internet
 not 
as 
a 
global 
and
 virtual
 entity
 but
 one 
which
 comprises 
multiple
 heterogeneous
 layers
 embedded
 in
 social 
contexts. 
The 
national web
 as
 an
 object
 of
 study
 describes
 layers
 of
 this
 sort,
 focusing
 on
 web
 spaces 
that 
are 
demarcated 
by 
national 
lines. 
In 
this
 thesis,
 I
 propose
 an
 approach
 to
 analyse
 national
 webs
 as
 well
 as
 demonstrate
 this approach’s
 usefulness.
 I
 argue
 that
 national
 identity
 and
 other
 political
 beliefs
 and
 values
 have
 a
 considerable
 impact
 on
 the
 formation
 and
 workings
 of
 the
 national
 web,
 and
 therefore
 the
 political
 culture
 approach
 can
 be
 a
 great
 asset
 in
 investigating
 political
 activity
 online.
 After
 conceptualizing
 the
 role
 of
 political
 culture
 in 
the 
national 
web 
as 
well 
as 
the 
influence 
of 
the 
internet 
on
 different
 political
 beliefs,
 I
 show
 how 
Hungarian
 political
 culture 
in
 particular
 shapes 
and
 is 
shaped 
by 
political 
activity 
on 
Facebook.
