Internet Politics by Andrew Chadwick
States, Citizens, and New Communication Technologies
The book examines how digital networks have transformed political communication and engagement, showing that the internet both expands opportunities for citizen participation and advocacy and reshapes the power of states, parties, and media institutions. It analyzes how new communication technologies alter information flows, campaign strategies, public-sphere dynamics, and protest mobilization, emphasizing the hybrid and uneven nature of online politics—where participatory potential coexists with inequalities, surveillance, and institutional adaptation. Drawing on empirical cases and theoretical analysis, it highlights the disruptive possibilities of digital media while stressing the persistent constraints and governance challenges they create for democratic processes.
