Extreme Speech and Global Digital Media brings together leading anthropologists and communication scholars to offer a much needed global critical perspective on vitriolic exchange and aggressive speech enabled by the Internet. Moving beyond Euro-American concerns around “fake news” and “echo chambers”, the contributions in the volume draw attention to local idioms, practices and tensions that have made online extreme speech a daily reality of everyday politics, with profound implications for how belonging is imagined, enacted and brutally enforced in different parts of the world. Drawing on cutting-edge case studies from around the world—from China, India, Philippines, Denmark and Kenya to Chile, Turkey, US, Pakistan and Indonesia, the book investigates online extreme speech with a global approach nuanced by ethnography and field-based research.
