About the Book:
Social Media and Hate investigates the intersection of misinformation and social media hate, examining how these phenomena contribute to extreme violence and discrimination in contemporary societies. Through expert interviews, focus groups, and case studies, the authors explore the socio-political contexts, values, and behaviors of social media users on platforms like Facebook, TikTok, ShareChat, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The book provides a theoretical framework, evaluates both quantitative and qualitative studies, and presents case studies from India, Brazil, Myanmar, and the UK.
The text highlights the technical, ideological, and networked connections between social media hate targeting various marginalized communities, including people of African and Asian descent, indigenous groups, Muslims, Dalits, dissenters, feminists, LGBTQIA communities, Rohingya, and immigrants. It stresses the need for a systematic political response to address this global issue.
