Proto-State Media Systems
The Digital Rise of Al-Qaeda and ISIS
Contenu
Utilizing constitutive and online networking theories, this book explores how militant proto-states create lasting, adaptable, identity-based systems that work to attract and sustain the attention of followers. This book showcases how standard media systems theory fails to fully explain the media systems of these organizations as a basis for building a revised theoretical lens that comprehends these emergent systems in the 21st century global media context.
