From: Patrick McCurdy, Ph.D. <[email protected]> A group of us (Patrick McCurdy, David Brake & Zeynep Tufekci) have begun to compile academic resources (articles, special issues and podcasts) on the role of media and communication in the Arab Spring.The aim is to provide potentially relevant theoretical work (for example on the uses of ICTs for political action or on the media and activism) and/or parallel empirical studies that can be used for comparison (eg the use of twitter in Iran in 2009).
The list does not claim to be comprehensive, but is intended as an open resource for students and teachers interested in this topic. Please feel free to share and use this document for noncommercial purposes. The list is both a Google document: https://docs.google.com/**document/d/**1DU8AOlkTV6F0ZyoGcbk_** 060iBZG5tWKwj_n97EJPe9M/edit<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1DU8AOlkTV6F0ZyoGcbk_060iBZG5tWKwj_n97EJPe9M/edit> And, many of the readings have also been added to Zotero too: https://www.zotero.org/groups/**arabspringmedia/items<https://www.zotero.org/groups/arabspringmedia/items> If you know of an academic article that isn't listed below please email patrickmmccurdy [at] gmail.com or davidbrake [at] gmail.com. Also, this is an open source project thus If you want to help maintain this reading list, get in touch. ------------------------------**-------------- Patrick McCurdy, Ph.D. Professeur adjoint / Assistant Professor Département de communication / Department of Communication Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa [email protected] Web:http://www.communication.**uottawa.ca/eng/faculty/**mccurdy.html<http://www.communication.uottawa.ca/eng/faculty/mccurdy.html>
