" Tufekci's] personal experience in the squares and streets, melded with her scholarly insights on technology and communication platforms, makes this] such an unusual and illuminating work."--Carlos Lozada, Washington Post "Twitter and Tear Gas is packed with evidence on how social media has changed social movements, based on rigorous research and placed in historical context."--Hannah Kuchler, Financial Times To understand a thwarted Turkish coup, an anti-Wall Street encampment, and a packed Tahrir Square, we must first comprehend the power and the weaknesses of using new technologies to mobilize large numbers of people. An incisive observer, writer, and participant in today's social movements, Zeynep Tufekci explains in this accessible and compelling book the nuanced trajectories of modern protests--how they form, how they operate differently from past protests, and why they have difficulty persisting in their long-term quests for change. Tufekci speaks from direct experience, combining on-the-ground interviews with insightful analysis. She describes how the internet helped the Zapatista uprisings in Mexico, the necessity of remote Twitter users to organize medical supplies during Arab Spring, the refusal to use bullhorns in the Occupy Movement that started in New York, and the empowering effect of tear gas in Istanbul's Gezi Park. These details from life inside social movements complete a moving investigation of authority, technology, and culture--and offer essential insights into the future of governance.Binding Type: Paperback

Comfortable and stylish
This has been wonderful. My son is a game show host and has to wear a blazer to work on game days. He throws this in the back of his car when he’s done and it’s went through a lot and still holds its shape. The colors look great and it’s comfortable. He says it doesn’t feel heavy on and is easy to take care of.

What a great fun purchase!
How fun this jacket was!! Fit true to size. (XL pictured). Made well. Sequins help up well-they didn’t fall off. Bright color. Nice covered buttons with extras! Would definitely buy again. Got tons of compliments at event we attended. Paired great with dress shirt, bow tie, black jeans and gold light up shoes we also found on Amazon. Price point was great compared to others. Husband wears XL and this was very comfortable when sitting and also when buttoned standing up.

Jazzy!
Looked fine and fit just right. Sequins do rub the neck a little, if the shirt collar isn't high enough. Really got a jazzy feel to it.

Fit great, good price, and fast shipping for a last minute NYE dinner
Let me start by saying that I had very low expectations, all I truly cared about was getting something “blingy” as fast as possible for a last minute New Years Eve dinner. I was impressed by the speed of arrival, price & floored by the quality. Now of course, this is NOT a tailored $300 jacket, but it was great for our evening. Did not shed any sequins, no problems with wrinkles, and didn’t have any weird smells. My husband said it was comfortable, and he plans to wear it again should the need arise.
