The Blogging Revolution by Antony Loewenstein Book Summary

E-Book edition with fully updated new introduction, charting the recent uprisings in the Middle East and the impact social media and internet censorship are having on the fledging democracy movements in Egypt, Syria, Saudi Arabia, Iran and beyond

The Blogging Revolution is a colourful and revelatory account of bloggers around the globe who live and write under repressive regimes—many of them risking their lives in doing so.
Antony Loewenstein’s travels take him to private parties in Iran and Egypt, internet cafes in Saudi Arabia and Damascus, to the homes of Cuban dissidents and into newspaper offices in Beijing, where he discovers the ways in which the internet is threatening the rule of governments.
Through first-hand investigations, he reveals the complicity of Western multinationals in assisting the restriction of information in these countries and how bloggers are leading the charge for change.
This fully updated new edition of the book reveals some of the key players of the Arab Spring and how years of organising, web dissent and bravery led to momentous changes in US-backed dictatorships across the Middle East.
The Blogging Revolution is a superb examination about the nature of repression in the twenty-first century and the power of brave individuals to overcome it.
