Klappentext zu „Civic Participation in Contentious Politics: The Digital Foreshadowing of Protest “
The book examines the highly dynamic political ecology ofrecent contentious politics and its expanding digital footprint. First, it
looks at the attainment of democratic citizenship through practice as street
protests attract substantial numbers of followers who narrate their involvement
or reflect on the claims and the implications of collective action on social
media. Secondly, it considers the
ramifications for contemporary democracy arising from the large-scale uptake of
social media by variegated protest networks, which no longer pivot on the
coordination capacity of bureaucratic movement organizations. The book ties
these aspects together to propose that contentious politics can be a fertile
ground for progressive civic participation.
