Synopsis: |
The media have been clamouring to call the events of 2010-11 a social media revolution. However their snap judgements misconstrue the real history of the revolution which has unseated successive dictators around the Middle East and North Africa. In The Revolution Will Be Tweeted Chris Stokel-Walker investigates the complexity of the Middle East and North African revolutions and explores the multi-layered circumstances which so engaged the world. Heroism on the ground, rather than online, caused some of the most feared dictators in the region from their palaces and into exile. The media outlets who were so quick to ascribe credit to the internet were themselves responsible for carrying the revolutionary momentum and cause to an ever-wider global audience. |
