It traces the emergence of social media discourse in Southeast Asia, and its potential as a 'liberation technology' in both democratizing and authoritarian states. It explains the growing decline in internet freedom and increasingly repressive and manipulative use of social media tools by governments, and argues that social media is now an essential platform for control. The contributors detail the increasing role of 'disinformation' and 'fake news' production in Southeast Asia, and how national governments are creating laws which attempt to address this trend, but which often exacerbate the situation of state control. From Grassroots Activism to Disinformation explores three main questions: How did social media begin as a vibrant space for grassroots activism to becoming a tool for disinformation? Who were the main actors in this transition: governments, citizens or the platforms themselves? Can reformists 'reclaim' the digital public sphere? And if so, how? 606 $aCommunication$xPolitical aspects$zSoutheast Asia 606 $aCommunication in politics$zSoutheast Asia 606 $aDisinformation$xPolitical aspects$zSoutheast Asia 606 $aSocial media$xPolitical aspects$zSoutheast Asia 607 $aSoutheast Asia$xPolitics and government$y21st century 615 0$aCommunication$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aCommunication in politics 615 0$aDisinformation$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aSocial media$xPolitical aspects 676 $a320.959 702 $aSinpeng$b Aim$f1983- 702 $aTapsell$b Ross 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910511483103321 996 $aFrom grassroots activism to disinformation$92549845 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01212oam 2200421zu 450 001 9910141145703321 005 20241212220048.0 010 $a9781612840567 010 $a1612840566 035 $a(CKB)2670000000083010 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000669732 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)12267484 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000669732 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10707920 035 $a(PQKB)10327292 035 $a(NjHacI)992670000000083010 035 $a(EXLCZ)992670000000083010 100 $a20160829d2011 uy 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$a2011 IEEE Rural Electric Power Conference 210 31$a[Place of publication not identified]$cIEEE$d2011 215 $a1 online resource (110 pages) $cillustrations 300 $aBibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph 311 08$a9781612840574 311 08$a1612840574 606 $aRural electrification 615 0$aRural electrification. 676 $a333.7932 702 $aIEEE Staff 801 0$bPQKB 906 $aPROCEEDING 912 $a9910141145703321 996 $a2011 IEEE Rural Electric Power Conference$92510179 997 $aUNINA
