Expressions of hate are words or actions that are discriminatory,
hostile, or violent to a person or group for racial, sexual,
ideological, ethnic, or identity reasons. Such expressions
contribute to an environment of prejudice and intolerance towards
those who are targeted. The spread of hate speech has been
exacerbated by the growth of social media networks, and
dissemination strategies (e.g., astroturfing) are becoming
increasingly complex. Although there has been an exponential
increase in the study of hate speech in recent years, most methods
have focused on the English language, limiting research of the
phenomenon in other languages such as Spanish, Italian, and
Portuguese. It is crucial to understand the role played by digital
media and journalism in the dissemination, detection, and control
of hate speech from current digital scenarios. News Media and Hate
Speech Promotion in Mediterranean Countries provides relevant
theoretical frameworks and the latest empirical research findings
about hate speech studies including into prejudice and intolerance.
Covering topics such as detecting hate speech, linguistic
challenges, and the taxonomy of hate speech, this book is ideal for
political decision makers, third-sector representatives,
journalists, digital media professionals, and researchers.
