- The monograph is a pioneering investigation into the ways states, armies and civilians transform social networks into digital battlefields, while the Internet acts as a military theatre where political violence is excused and supported. Drawing on 8 years of slow research and three years of writing, the book was written in a period when militarisation of the Internet was relatively new. Prophetically, the book offers an innovative theoretical language to account for the everydayness of digital violence, paving the way for a decade of new scholarship that grapples with the phenomena of digital warfare, fake news and social media propaganda.
