To understand a thwarted Turkish coup, an anti–Wall Street encampment, and a packed Tahrir Square, we must first comprehend the power and the weaknesses of using new technologies to mobilize large numbers of people. An incisive observer, writer, and participant in today’s social movements, Zeynep Tufekci explains in this accessible and compelling book the nuanced trajectories of modern protests—how they form, how they operate differently from past protests, and why they have difficulty persisting in their long-term quests for change.
Tufekci speaks from direct experience, combining on-the-ground interviews with insightful analysis. She describes how the internet helped the Zapatista uprisings in Mexico, the necessity of remote Twitter users to organize medical supplies during Arab Spring, the refusal to use bullhorns in the Occupy Movement that started in New York, and the empowering effect of tear gas in Istanbul’s Gezi Park. These details from life inside social movements complete a moving investigation of authority, technology, and culture—and offer essential insights into the future of governance.
通俗易懂,例证充足。C7:MacMaster的骗局让我觉得在匿名世界搞臭一个群体真容易。水军/钓鱼等现实中搞了N年的老手段依旧可以大力出奇迹,虽然现在一刀切的老办法已经不合时宜了。
评分1. 最强的地方是洞察力,例如censorship不仅是捂住你的嘴,遮住你的眼,还要让你猪油蒙心,真假难辨。2. 民族志的写法engaging&lively, 不过也就散了些。3. 网络民族志并不意味着田野就是cyberspace。4. 对technology 的讨论也许可以回到马克思和法兰克福学派。
评分Tufekci现在也算是美国新媒体研究的红人了。书中有很多关于作为technological affordance的互联网社交平台的有趣观点,以及有关新媒体与社会运动动员/持续之间的关系的洞见。
评分大概一年前的此时读了这本书,甚至带到过movement现场。时光飞逝,平和与希望也飞逝。
评分行文太琐碎冗余,一半篇幅足以说明白观点。观点有些还行,既有洞见也有原创力,比如社媒的affordance, signal, 网络运动易于发动,但缺乏组织和缺乏领导使其在后期面临tactic-freezing, 难以调整,难以善始善终。网络运动追求leaderless, 但没有lead就难以形成实际的组织,而产生leader除了它们反对的代议制选举,其他途径都无法为领导赋予足够的合法性。这是网络运动产生与发展的内在矛盾。她还认为虚拟社会并不是真的虚拟,而是一种现实的扩大。此外,对于政府来说,除了传统的censorship, 还有假新闻、distraction(信息过载,混淆视听等)和对公民家人朋友的监控等。如果不是太啰嗦,章节区分度一般,该书会更好。
