The Russian internet is a hotbed for memes and viral videos: the
political, satirical and simply absurd compete for attention in
Russia while the West turns to it for an endless reserve of
humorous content. But how did this powerful cyber community grow
out of the repressive media environment of the Soviet Union? What
does this viral content reveal about the country, its politics and
its culture? And why are the memes and videos of today's Russia so
popular, spreading so rapidly across the globe? Award-winning
author Eliot Borenstein explores the explosive online movement and
unpicks, for the first time, the role of mimetic content and
digital activism in modern Russian history up to the present day.
