Philip N. Howard is an associate professor in the Department of Communication at the University of Washington, with adjunct appointments at the Jackson School of International Studies and the Information School. His book New Media Campaigns and the Managed Citizen won the American Sociological Association's Communication and Information Technologies Section Best Book Award and the International Communication Association's Outstanding Book Award.
Around the developing world, political leaders face a dilemma: the very information and communication technologies that boost economic fortunes also undermine power structures. Globally, one in ten internet users is a Muslim living in a populous Muslim community. In these countries, young people are developing political identities online, and digital technologies are helping civil society build systems of political communication independent of the state and beyond easy manipulation by cultural or religious elites.
With unique data on patterns of media ownership and technology use, The Digital Origins of Dictatorship and Democracy demonstrates how, since the mid-1990s, information technologies have had a role in political transformation. Democratic revolutions are not caused by new information technologies. But in the Muslim world, democratization is no longer possible without them.

New ICTs are used for debates over the interpretation of Islamic texts, gender, and security issues. While there is certainly a strong presence of radical Islamic sects and terrorist
评分“Technology is neither good nor bad, nor is it neutral.” ICTs have provided means of democratization for some Muslim countries. Howard begins with the premise that freedom of information potentially leads to revolution which he qualifies as being “different per case” and “evolution”.
评分作者对ICT对民主进程的作用诠释得很到位,发现很多论文只是证明了其中一种可能。每个国家的民主进程都是不一样的,没有那一条道路是可以复制照搬的。
