This book looks into the role played by mediated communication,
particularly new and social media, in shaping various forms of
struggles around power, identity and religion at a time when the
Arab world is going through an unprecedented period of turmoil and
upheaval. The book provides unique and multifocal perspectives on
how new forms of communication remain at the centre of historical
transformations in the region. The key focus of this book is not to
ascertain the extent to which new communication technologies have
generated the Arab spring or led to its aftermaths, but instead
question how we can better understand many types of articulations
between communication technologies, on the one hand, and forms of
resistance, collective action, and modes of expression that have
contributed to the recent uprisings and continue to shape the
social and political upheavals in the region on the other. The book
presents original perspectives and rigorous analysis by specialists
and academics from around the world that will certainly enrich the
debate around major issues raised by recent historical events.
