Description

Explore how social media transformed American politics in New Media, Campaigning and the 2008 Facebook Election by Routledge. This book examines Barack Obama's groundbreaking use of Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, MySpace, Flickr and blogs to build a grassroots-style campaign that fundamentally changed how candidates engage with voters. Discover how the Obama campaign recognised that young voters are not passive information consumers but active conduits who share content through social networks, replacing traditional media filters with peer-driven ones. This political biography and leadership analysis reveals how social media enabled candidates to conduct electronic outreach that previously required door-to-door canvassing and telephone calls, reshaping the landscape of modern political campaigns.

Key Features

Examines Barack Obama's pioneering use of social media platforms including Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and MySpace during the 2008 presidential campaign.

Analyses how the Obama campaign leveraged blogs, Flickr and Digg to build a grassroots-style political movement with direct voter engagement.

Explores the shift from traditional media gatekeeping to social filtering, where young voters became active information conduits rather than passive consumers.

Published by Routledge, a leading academic publisher specialising in political leadership, biography and contemporary political analysis.
