Through comprehensive analysis, it establishes a strong connection between these phenomena and the socio-political contexts, values, and behaviors of social media platform users. The argument progresses from a theoretical exploration of sectarian hatred to a methodological evaluation of quantitative and qualitative studies, culminating in four qualitative case studies of social media hate in India, Brazil, Myanmar, and the UK. The book highlights the technical, ideological, and networked similarities and connections between social media hate targeting individuals of African and Asian descent, indigenous communities, Muslims, Dalits, dissidents, feminists, LGBTQIA communities, Rohingya, and immigrants across these contexts, emphasizing the urgent need for a coordinated political response. This insightful text is a valuable resource for scholars and academics specializing in Cultural Studies, Community Psychology, Education, Journalism, Media and Communication Studies, Political Science, Social Anthropology, Social Psychology, and Sociology.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 298g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 143 x 223 x 15 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780367537272\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shakuntala Banaji,Ramnath Bhat","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44103778500858,"sku":"9780367537272","price":52.35,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1646320269054_book.jpg?v=1646946384","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/social-media-and-hate-9780367537272","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
