This book looks at protest aesthetics, which we consider to be the visual and performative elements of protest, such as images, symbols, graffiti, art, as well as the choreography of protest actions in public spaces. Through the use of social media, protestors have been able to create an alternative space for people to engage with politics that is more inclusive and participatory than traditional politics. This volume focuses on the role of visual culture in a highly mediated environment and draws on case studies from Europe, Thailand, South Africa, USA, Argentina, and the Middle East in order to demonstrate how protestors use aesthetics to communicate their demands and ideas. It examines how digital media is harnessed by protestors and argues that all protest aesthetics are performative and communicative. 588 0 Print version record. 650 0 Protest movements. 650 0 Aesthetics|xPolitical aspects. 700 1 McGarry, Aidan,|eeditor. 700 1 Erhart, Itir,|eeditor. 700 1 Eslen-Ziya, Hande,|eeditor. 700 1 Jenzen, Olu,|eeditor. 700 1 Korkut, Umut,|eeditor. 776 08 |iPrint version:|tAESTHETICS OF GLOBAL PROTEST.|d[Place of publication not identified] : AMSTERDAM UNIVERSITY PR, 2019|z9463724915|w(OCoLC)1112891982 830 0 Protest and social movements. 914 on1132291300 994 92|bCKE
