Online Discourse in the Arab World: Dispelling the Myths

In an event titled ‘Online Discourse in the Arab World: Dispelling the Myths,’ the US Institute of Peace’s Center of Innovation for Science, Technology, and Peacebuilding, in collaboration with Harvard University’s Berkman Center for Internet & Society, presented findings from an unprecedented, comprehensive mapping of the Arabic-language blogosphere. Researchers from the Berkman Center unveiled for the first time a new report on the Arabic-language blogosphere, which applied cutting-edge social network mapping analysis to more than 35,000 blogs from 18 countries.
