The role of communal advertising in the happenings of the Arab Planting season and its aftermath in the Muslim world has stimulated much debate, yet little in the form of useful perception. Now Haroon Ullah, a scholar and diplomat with profound knowledge of politics and societies in the centre East, South Asia, and Southeast Asia, pulls the first clear picture of the unprecedented impact of Twitter, Facebook, and other method of online communication on the recent revolutions that blazed across Muslim countries. The author carefully analyzes the growth of social advertising throughout the Muslim world, tracing how various organizations learned to employ such digital tools to expand sites, recruit volunteers, and disseminate messages. In Egypt, where teenagers rose up against the plan; in Pakistan, where in fact the youth struggled the intellect and military institutions; and in Syria, where underground Islamists got to change alliances, digital communications played key functions. Ullah shows how social advertising have profoundly changed associations between regimes and voters, though not always for the better. Excited he identifies styles over the Muslim world and the implications of these for local and international politics.
