Environmental Activism, Social Media, and Protest in China:
Becoming Activists over Wild Public Networks builds upon existing
social movement scholarship in communication studies, China
studies, and sociology by analyzing China's vibrant contemporary
environmental protests. Using news reports, social media feeds, and
conversations with witnesses and participants in the protests,
Elizabeth Brunner examines three important antiparaxylene (PX)
protests: the 2007 protests in Xiamen, the 2011 protests in Dalian,
and the 2014 protests in Maoming. Brunner argues for the treatment
of protests as forces majeure and asserts the legitimacy of wild
public networks. Brunner stresses that scholars must take a
networked approach to social movements as new media become valid
platforms for furthering social change, especially in areas where
censorship is common.
