Popis: |
Brantmeier et al. articulate social media as a “liminal space” between the mind and embodied action. They address questions about social media’s pedagogical potential for consciousness-raising and political mobilization in collective community efforts at change, reconciliation, and renewal. The authors point to digital diplomacy initiatives in Kosovo that promote a positive national identity in the aftermath of violence to demonstrate how social media can be used to erode tensions and build interfaith harmony in post-conflict environments by illuminating ideas to diverse audiences, thereby mobilizing communities to challenge historical power dynamics and hierarchies. Authors conclude that in post-conflict zones, where community voices have been systemically undermined, the accessibility and democracy of knowledge production and consumption on social media is critical to civic engagement and collaborative peacebuilding. |
