- Double-weighted statement
- This book synthesizes more than a decade of the author’s research and provides a novel theoretical argument that covers extensive ground in relation to a fundamental topic: how the internet has changed the role of media in society. Original insight is provided via novel synthesis of research on two countries that receive little attention in the social science literature; China and India, plus two countries where much research exists, the US and Sweden. The book advances panoptic insights on several central debates and addresses specific urgent contemporary problems, including: how the rise of populism has been enabled by digital media.
