Within Tweeting Distance: How States Use Twitter Diplomacy (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781680532838)

One of the most peculiar byproducts of media globalization is the creation of audiences close by but out of reach, and far away but within reach. Within Tweeting Distance is a study of one of the most compelling emerging subfields at the crossroads of the fields of international relations and communications: Twitter Diplomacy. Noor Suwwan's groundbreaking new book proposes a new theoretical classification framework for Twitter Diplomacy and then applies it to four Arab state-actors. Within Tweeting Distance is the first book to engage with the creative transformation that the emergence of Twitter Diplomacy has imposed on approaches to international relations.
