Produktinformationen zu „Networks of Outrage and Hope (ePub)“
Networks of Outrage and Hope is an exploration of the new
forms of social movements and protests that are erupting in the
world today, from the Arab uprisings to the indignadas movement in
Spain, from the Occupy Wall Street movement to the social protests
in Turkey, Brazil and elsewhere. While these and similar social
movements differ in many important ways, there is one thing they
share in common: they are all interwoven inextricably with the
creation of autonomous communication networks supported by the
Internet and wireless communication.
In this new edition of his timely and important book, Manuel
Castells examines the social, cultural and political roots of these
new social movements, studies their innovative forms of
self-organization, assesses the precise role of technology in the
dynamics of the movements, suggests the reasons for the support
they have found in large segments of society, and probes their
capacity to induce political change by influencing people's
minds. Two new chapters bring the analysis up-to-date and draw out
the implications of these social movements and protests for
understanding the new forms of social change and political
democracy in the global network society.
