SoSe 23: Role of Twitter in 2022 Iran Uprising
Pourang Zarif Karimi
Kommentar
The 2022 - 2023 protests in Iran have been a series of widespread protests revolving around freedom and gender equality. The Iranian regime response has been brutal. Many have been killed, imprisoned, or sentenced to death. Despite being blocked in Iran, Twitter has been used by the Iranians to draw the attention and support of the international community, especially the West.
In our course, we will examine how the users have affected the political agenda in countries such as Germany in order to align the European agenda with their cause. After a brief introduction to the underlying causes of protests and the actors involved, and an introduction to the Agenda Setting Theory, students will choose a domain of interest such as engagement with politicians or the Western media, and will perform basic qualitative content analysis of the Tweets in English and/or German.
There is no prerequisite to this seminar. We will use Twitter Advanced Search to gather data and employ the easy-to-use content analysis tool MAXQDA, both of which will be introduced and explained during the course. Schließen
