This book introduces four waves of upsurge in digital activism and cyberconflict. The rise of digital activism started in 1994, was transformed by the events of 9/11, culminated in 2011 with the Arab Spring uprisings, and entered a transformative phase of control and mainstreaming since 2013 with the Snowden affair.
Fifteen thought-provoking essays engage in an innovative dialogue between cultural studies of affect, feelings and emotions, and digital cultures, new media and technology. The volume provides a fascinating dialogue that cuts across disciplines, media platforms and geographic and linguistic boundaries.
Examines issues of organisation in resistance movements, discussing topics including the integration of the world system, the intersection of networks with discourses of identity, and the possibility of social transformation. This book is suitable for students and scholars looking for a fresh theorization of the forces at work in global politics.
Focuses on the implications that the phenomenon of cyberconflict (conflict in computer mediated environments and the internet) has on politics, society and culture. Hacking between ethnoreligious groups, and the use of the internet in events in China, this work covers the Israel-Palestine conflict, India-Pakistan conflict, and more.
