Overview
The Encyclopedia of Social Media and Politics will explore how the rise of social media is altering politics both in the United States and in key moments, movement, and places around the world. Its scope encompasses the disruptive technologies and activities that are changing basic patterns in American politics, and the amazing transformations that social media use is rendering in other political systems heretofore resistant to democratization and change. This two-volume A to Z encyclopedia set will serve as a general, non-technical resource for students and researchers to understand the importance of how changes in social networking through social media are affecting politics, both in the United States and in selected countries or regions.
