Description

Explore the complex relationship between digital platforms and social movements in Social Media Materialities and Protest: Critical Reflections. Published by Routledge, this collection moves beyond viewing social media as a neutral tool. Instead, it examines how the physical and technical foundations of platforms like Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and WeChat influence how people resist and struggle. This book examines how wires, silicon, data streams, and algorithms shape modern engagement. It looks at how user interfaces, programming, and business models direct contentious practices. By studying these material characteristics, readers gain a deeper understanding of how technologies and economic models are handled and performed by users during protests. This text is an essential resource for understanding the technical and structural forces that steer digital activism and social change in the modern era.
