Digital Militarism: Israel's Occupation in the Social Media age (Stanford Studies in Middle Eastern and Islamic Societies and Cultures)
Adi Kuntsman; Rebecca L. Stein
Synopsis "Digital Militarism: Israel's Occupation in the Social Media age (Stanford Studies in Middle Eastern and Islamic Societies and Cultures) "
Israel's occupation has been transformed in the social media age. Over the last decade, military rule in the Palestinian territories grew more bloody and entrenched. In the same period, Israelis became some of the world's most active social media users. In Israel today, violent politics are interwoven with global networking practices, protocols, and aesthetics. Israeli soldiers carry smartphones into the field of military operations, sharing mobile uploads in real-time. Official Israeli military spokesmen announce wars on Twitter. And civilians encounter state violence first on their newsfeeds and mobile screens. Across the globe, the ordinary tools of social networking have become indispensable instruments of warfare and violent conflict. This book traces the rise of Israeli digital militarism in this global context―both the reach of social media into Israeli military theaters and the occupation's impact on everyday Israeli social media culture. Today, social media functions as a crucial theater in which the Israeli military occupation is supported and sustained.
