Abstract:
"This book documents the various dimensions of social media adoption, and especially the use of social media in citizen-enabled social advocacy campaigns. The book explores the reservations that have expressed by some commentators and researchers as to the actual influence and ramifications of this adoption both in advocacy campaigning and socio-political protests"-- Provided by publisher.
