Reviews

""This timely volume breaks new ground by bringing into conversation media studies and war studies to explore the complexities and ambiguities of digital warfare. Training their sights on the Russia-Ukraine War, the contributors investigate the many ways in which digital war challenges our ability to draw neat boundaries between military and civilians, participation and observation, technology and humanity. The result is a collection of empirically rich and theoretically diverse analyses of a conflict that is both intractable and constantly evolving."" (Nadia Kaneva, Professor, Department of Media, Film and Journalism Studies at University of Denver, USA)--Nadia Kaneva, Professor, Department of Media, Film and Journalism Studies at University of Denver, USA ""This volume illuminates a crucial but understudied front in Ukraine's struggle against Russian aggression - how communications technologies and digital output shapes the information environment and narratives within the states at war. Through fascinating original research, the contributions reveal how Russian information operations seek to exploit different platforms and user communities and how Ukraine has resisted this through its own inventive use of the digital domain. This is a significant collection for scholars and policy-makers wishing to understand both modern digital conflict and the importance of social resilience against Russian propaganda."" (Roy Allison, Professor of Russia and Eurasian International Relations at St Antony's College, University of Oxford, UK)--Roy Allison, Professor of Russia and Eurasian International Relations at St Antony's College University of Oxford, UK ""Whatever the label - Digital Warfare, Information War, Political Technology, Political Warfare - this is a ground-breaking study of Russian aggression against Ukraine in all of its forms. And of Ukrainian digital resistance in response."" (Andrew Wilson, Professor of Ukrainian Studies, School of Slavonic and East European Studies at University College London, UK)--Andrew Wilson, Professor of Ukrainian Studies, School of Slavonic and East European Studies at University College London, UK ""Digital Warfare: Media and Technologies in the Russo-Ukrainian War is a much-welcomed new volume. It provides insight into how technology is once again changing warfare. Brought together in this volume are scholars from around the world presenting their cutting-edge research on topics that many are interested in but lack expertise to fully understand. This book explains both Russia - Ukraine and war in new ways.""
