Social Media and Hate argues that these phenomena, and the extreme violence and discrimination they initiate against targeted groups, are connected to the socio-political contexts, values and behaviours of users of social media platforms such as Facebook, TikTok, ShareChat, Instagram and WhatsApp. The argument moves from a theoretical discussion of the practices and consequences of sectarian hatred, through a methodological evaluation of quantitative and qualitative studies on this topic, to four qualitative case studies of social media hate, and its effects on groups, individuals and wider politics in India, Brazil, Myanmar and the UK. The technical, ideological and networked similarities and connections between social media hate against Muslims, Dalits, dissenters, feminists, LGBTQi groups, Rohingya and immigrants in all four contexts is highlighted, stressing the need for an equally systematic political response. This is an insightful text for scholars and academics in the fields of Cultural Studies, Community Psychology, Education, Journalism, Media and Communication Studies, Political Science, Social Anthropology, Social Psychology, and Sociology. 410 0$aRoutledge focus on communication and society. 606 $aOnline hate speech 606 $aSocial media$xReligious aspects 615 0$aOnline hate speech. 615 0$aSocial media$xReligious aspects. 676 $a302.30285 700 $aBanaji$b Shakuntala$0627077 702 $aBhat$b Ramnath 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910774749203321 996 $aSocial Media and Hate$93662604 997 $aUNINA
