Over the last five years, widespread concern about the effects of
social media on democracy has led to an explosion in research from
different disciplines and corners of academia. This book is the
first of its kind to take stock of this emerging multi-disciplinary
field by synthesizing what we know, identifying what we do not know
and obstacles to future research, and charting a course for the
future inquiry. Chapters by leading scholars cover major topics -
from disinformation to hate speech to political advertising - and
situate recent developments in the context of key policy questions.
In addition, the book canvasses existing reform proposals in order
to address widely perceived threats that social media poses to
democracy. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge
Core.
