Reviews

"[breaks] valuable ground by offering a detailed exploration of activism, media, and information warfare in relation to the ""Arab Spring."" He complicates straightforward accounts of the Internet empowering revolutionaries across the Middle East and bridgesmultiple lines of intellectual inquiry, including narratives and counter-narratives, digital dissent and surveillance, revolutionary and counter-revolutionary currents. Greenberg's writing, moreover, is engaging.[...] the book is well written and would make an excellent addition to courses on journalism, media, and the ""ArabSpring.""--Andrew Simon, Dartmouth College ""International Journal of Middle East Studies (2020), 1-2"" Like all good stories, his book makes the events of the Arab Spring come alive once again, in all their human drama and unpredictability.--Robyn Creswell, Yale University ""Journal of Arabic Literature 51 (2020)"" Remarkable in its deft use of various strands of scholarship, its engaging style and its command of the subject... it is intellectually alert and uncompromising, yet it remains empathetic to the human dimension of the Arab Spring.-- ""Philippe-Joseph Salazar, Distinguished Professor in Rhetoric, Faculty of Law, Cape Town"""
