Collaborative processes are present in our society everywhere. Digital networks throughout the communication field popularized collaborative actions, virtual communities being its more relevant fact. On the other hand, through the immaterial labour, we will find a strong plea for collaborative networks that became a kind of mantra within the organizational world. Since a decade ago the concept of collective intelligence has been seen as a synonym of this collaboration understanding, either in communicational or labouring field. But is it the only meaning of the concept of collective intelligence? The present article is a reflection about the dimensions of the concept of collective intelligence and its opening to another dimension, the micro politics, where it is understanding as a resistance to alienation process of cognitive capitalism.Downloads
