Politics and the Twitter Revolution: How Tweets Influence the Relationship between Political Leaders and the Public by John H. Parmelee and Shannon L. Bichard is the first comprehensive examination of how Twitter is used politically. Surveys and in-depth interviews with political Twitter users answer several important questions, including: Who follows the political leaders on Twitter, and why? How persuasive are political tweets? Is political Twitter use good for democracy? These and other questions are answered from theoretical perspectives, such as uses and gratifications, word-of-mouth communication, selective exposure, innovation characteristics, and the continuity-discontinuity framework. In addition, content analysis and frame analysis illustrate how political leaders' tweets frame their policies and personalities. The findings in Politics and the Twitter Revolution show Twitter to be surprisingly influential on political discourse. Twitter has caused major changes in how people engage politically. Followers regularly take actions that are requested in leaders' tweets, and, in many cases, leaders' tweets shape followers' political views more than friends and family. Other findings raise concerns. For some, Twitter use contributes to political polarization, and there is frequently a disconnect between what followers expect from leaders on Twitter and what those leaders are giving them.

Master's Thesis from the year 2012 in the subject Communications - Multimedia, Internet, New Technologies, grade: 72% (Distinction), City University London (School of Informatics and School of Arts and Social Sciences), course: MSc Information, Communication and Society, language: English, abstract: This dissertation examines tweet content from key periods of the uprisings in Egypt and Syria of 2011 and 2012, generally known as the “Arab Spring”. Some authors and the main-stream media have suggested that these uprisings were significantly influenced and organised by Twitter and subsequently referred to them as “Twitter Revolution”. Other authors have strongly opposed this idea and attributed it to self-deception in the light of marvellous inventions of the Western World. They have suggested Twitter was predominantly used as an information-sharing network. In an effort to contribute data to this debate, this dissertation analyses tweet content from three different observation periods; two tweet datasets were collected from other academics and third one was crawled from the Twitter API; this process made use of the crawling tool cURL and the database software mongoDB. The combined tweet dataset contained about 1.9 million tweets out of which a sample of 1945 tweets was drawn. This sample was then evaluated in a quantitative content analysis according to a coding manual. These codes were entered into the statistical analysis software SPSS, in which they were also processed. This study found that in the context of these uprisings, Twitter was indeed used more as an information-sharing tool and only to a relatively small fraction for organisational purposes. This result does not negate the possibility of a mobilising effect of that small fraction. A further, central result is that almost every second tweet contained a hyperlink and that most of these lead to visual stimuli.

Seminar paper from the year 2013 in the subject Earth Science / Geography - Geopolitics, grade: 1,0, Charles University in Prague (Faculty of Social Sciences), language: English, abstract: When the people in the Arab world started to go out on the streets in December 2010 for the very first time for years, no one of the demonstrators and protesters who were fighting for their rights to live in a better world, in peace, freedom and democracy expected that level of change as a result of their behaviour. Those inconceivable aftermaths did not exist neither in the minds of the people in Tunisia, the nucleus of the Arab Spring, nor in the minds of the people who were joining that wave of protest country by country afterwards. Before that uprising arrived Libya, which is in the focus of attention here, in February 2011, the revolt expanded over the Middle East and North Africa. Never before mass media, including radio, television and, especially the internet (with Facebook, Twitter and YouTube), was taken such a significant role during uprisings since the end of the year 2010. No one of the participants, who were involved in this uprising, no one of the politicians, no one of the citizens in the Western world, no one of the former leader of those regimes and no one of the media companies could count on this great measure of transformation in the Arab world. States were dissolved, former inhuman leaders of a regime were captured or killed and new fundaments of a modern, democratic and liberalized nation were created by the people or the opposition of those long lasting dictatorial and authoritarian leaders.

Essay from the year 2011 in the subject Economics - Case Scenarios, grade: A., The American University in Cairo, language: English, abstract: Let’s get one thing straight, The Egyptian revolution was not a Facebook revolution. Was Facebook immensely important? Yes. Was it the catalyst? Maybe. But that is as far as those assumptions can go. Social media today has no longer become just another pastime. Websites like twitter and facebook have now become a way of living rather than a hobby or interest. Ask yourself this, why was the government’s first plan of defense to shut down the internet connection and phone lines? Why was a people’s revolution unprecedented in the past given the simple term of a “Facebook Revolution”? To answer these questions one must look at the power and momentum of social media in Egypt, the transformation of social media like facebook and twitter from places of expression to sites of political organizing. To understand this revolution one must engage the political situation that bloggers and mass public alike have been surviving for so long.

In this fascinating, terrifying, instructive and often hilarious book, Bob Garfield of NPR and Ad Age, chronicles the disintegration of traditional media and marketing but also travels five continents to discover how business can survive--and thrive--in a digitally connected, Post-Media Age.

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2011 im Fachbereich Medien / Kommunikation - Journalismus, Publizistik, Note: 1,0, Freie Universität Berlin (Institut für Publizistik- und Kommunikationswissenschaft), Veranstaltung: Civic Journalism 2.0 in demokratischen und autoritären Staaten, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Der sogenannte "arabische Frühling" ist zum Inbegriff einer Bewegung von Protesten und Aufständen in der arabischen Welt geworden, die sich gegen die autoritären Diktaturen in Nordafrika und dem Nahen Osten richtet. Den Präzedenzfall schuf die tunesische Bevölkerung mit den Aufständen rund um den Jahreswechsel 2010/11, die das Staatsoberhaupt Zine el-Abidine Ben Ali in die Flucht geschlagen haben. Medien in den westlichen Ländern würdigten den Beitrag neuer Medien im Internet am Erfolg der Tunesier und tauften diese Bewegung mit markigen Begriffen wie "Facebook-Revolution" oder "twitter-Revolution". Es stellt sich daran anknüpfend die Frage, wie und warum solche Gegenöffentlichkeiten in autoritären Staaten wie Tunesien entstehen konnten. Welche Möglichkeiten der freien Meinungsäußerung inner- und außerhalb klassischer Massenmedien gab es im vorrevolutionären Tunesien? Diese Arbeit soll die Rolle von alternativen Medien vor und während der tunesi-schen Jasmin-Revolution analysieren, um eine Antwort auf die Frage zu wagen, inwiefern partizipative Medienformate im Internet die Demokratiebewegung beeinflusst haben. Welche Leistungen erbringen sie für die Bewegung und welche Effekte haben sie in deren nationalen und internationalen Umfeld? Als theoretischen Hintergrund werden im ersten Teil wichtige Begriffe geklärt. Öffentlichkeit und Gegenöffentlichkeit sind zentrale Konzepte für diese Arbeit. Vor ihrem Hintergrund wird eine Definition von Civic Journalism 2.0 vorgeschlagen. Daran wird sich im zweiten Teil die Einordnung der politischen Verhältnisse und des Mediensystems in Tunesien anschließen. Daraus zeigt sich die Notwendigkeit von alternativen Medien, die es in Tunesi

Bachelorarbeit aus dem Jahr 2014 im Fachbereich Ethnologie / Volkskunde, Note: 2,0, Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg (Institut für Ethnologie), Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Einleitung “There is now a menace which is called Twitter. The best examples of lies can be found there. To me, social media is the worst menace to society.” (Yaman 2014: 21) Der türkische Premierminister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan äußerte sich in diesem Zitat über die Nutzung sozialer Medien von Protestierenden während der anhaltenden Gezi-Proteste. Dies geschah am 5. Juni 2013, inmitten von zunehmend scharfen Bemerkungen, die von Seiten der Regierung gegen Online-Aktivisten gerichtet wurden. Sichtbar wurde diese negative Haltung während der Proteste zudem durch die Gerichtsverhandlungen gegen Online-Aktivisten, die Sperrung von sozialen Medien (Yaman 2013: 21) und das neue Internetgesetz in der Türkei (Krüger 2014). Die Proteste um den Gezi-Park in der Türkei begannen in Istanbul am 28. Mai 2013 mit einer gewaltlosen Demonstration von Umweltschützern, die sich gegen ein geplantes Bauprojekt von Ministerpräsident Erdoğan richtete. Auf dem Gelände des Gezi-Parks, der direkt an den zentralen Taksim-Platz in Istanbul angrenzt, sollte ein Einkaufszentrum gebaut werden. Die Protestierenden übernachteten dort in Zelten, um den Park zu besetzen und den Abriss zu stoppen. Der Park wurde am 31. Mai von der Polizei gewaltsam geräumt. Es kam zu einem massiven Gebrauch von Tränengas und Wasserwerfern gegen die sich im Park befindenden Menschen und Zelte der Demonstranten wurden in Brand gesetzt. Nach diesem Einsatz extremer Polizeigewalt gegen friedliche Demonstranten breiteten sich Demonstrationen in mehreren türkischen Großstädten aus, die sich zu einem landesweiten Protest entwickelten. Protestiert wurde gegen die autoritäre Politik von Premierminister Erdoğan und seiner Partei. Die offiziellen Medien unterlagen während der Gezi-Proteste größtenteils der Zensur durch staatliche Repressionen. Aus diesem Grund nutzten Protestierende die sogenannten sozialen Medien wie Facebook, Twitter, Youtube und weitere, um die fehlende Berichterstattung der lokalen Medien zu ersetzen (Gündüz 2013: 13). Die Relevanz des Themas ergibt sich aus der oft in Zusammenhang mit den Ereignissen um den Gezi-Park erwähnten Nutzung sozialer Medien. In dieser Bachelorarbeit wurde der Frage nachgegangen, welche Bedeutungen soziale Medien für Protestierende der Gezi-Proteste in der Türkei hatten.
