The Communimethod: Notes on Social Communication Engineering and Childhood. Constructing Social Life

This article presents notes on social communication engineering that elaborate on some elements of its diagnostic and action phases. During the diagnostic phase, cyberculture is emphasized, which is one of the five basic dimensions of social communication engineering; whereas, during the transition to the action phase, two of the proposal's basic components are presented: communiconomy and communimethodology. The synthetic presentation is focused on the methodological and technological heart of social communication engineering: the communimethod, a realm of action with constructive determining effects on social life based on the relationship between the stakeholders' experience and its systematic observation by the social engineer; the dialog between the social actor and the engineer is key throughout this process.
