TAILIEUCHUNG - NEW MEDIA AND CONFLICT AFTER THE ARAB SPRING

The public’s relationship to their parliament has changed. Where traditionally the work of parliament might have been reported through media commentary, today members are tweeting and posting comments to social networks from the chamber and committee rooms as events unfold. The public can directly follow multiple points of view and different political perspectives on a debate and, in some cases, directly contribute, communicating with members in real time. The public increasingly expects these much more instant forms of communication and this extends the role of parliaments to provide information about and access to parliament across a range of digital channels | PEACEW RKS blogs and bullets ii NEW MEDIA AND CONFLICT AFTER THE ARAB SPRING Sean Aday Henry Farrell Marc Lynch John Sides Deen Freelon United States Institute of Peace PEACEW RKS About the Report In this report from the United States Institute of Peace s Centers of Innovation for Science Technology and Peacebuilding and Media Conflict and Peacebuilding a team of scholars from George Washington University and American University analyze the role of social media in the Arab Spring protests of 2011-12. It builds on a previous report published in 2010 by USIP Press titled Blogs and Bullets New Media in Contentious Politics and applies its five-level framework for studying and understanding the role of new media in political movements. The authors utilize a unique dataset from the URL shortener commonly associated with Twitter and used by other digital media such as Facebook. With these data the authors are able to test empirically the claims of cyberoptimists and cyberskeptics about the role of new media in bringing down autocratic regimes in Tunisia Egypt and Libya and in spurring protests in other parts of the Arab World such as Bahrain.
