  • Violent Protest and Heterogeneous Diffusion
    BRITAIN FIRST AND THE UK INDEPENDENCE PARTY: SOCIAL MEDIA AND MOVEMENT-PARTY DYNAMICS1 Thomas Davidson and Mabel Berezin2 FORTHCOMING IN DECEMBER 2018 ISSUE OF MOBILIZATION. PLEASE CITE THE PUBLISHED VERSION. Social movement scholars have recently turned their attention to the interactions between political parties and social movements, but little is known about how social media have impacted these relationships, despite widespread adoption of these technologies. We present a case study of the relationship between Britain First, a far-right anti-Muslim social movement, and the U.K. Independence Party, the Eurosceptic political party that spearheaded the Brexit campaign. The movement appeared marginal in the press but it dominated social media, using this presence to support to the party. We examine the dynamics of the relationship between these groups from 2013 until 2017, drawing upon data from social media, newspapers, and other online sources, and focusing on interactions between elites and rank-and-file supporters. Our findings illustrate how far-right groups have used new technologies to generate an unprecedented amount of popular support and to attempt to influence the political mainstream. A number of western democracies have recently experienced a resurgence of right-wing political activity in both the parliamentary and extra-parliamentary sphere (Akkerman, de Lange, and Rooduijn 2016; Mudde 2016; Muis and Immerzeel 2017). In Germany, the unprecedented electoral performance of the anti-immigrant Alternative for Germany (AfD) party

Reviewed by: Kioko Ireri, United States International University–Africa, Nairobi, Kenya DOI: 10.1177/1077699017734210 “Social media inject turbulence into political life. They facilitate a non-normal distri- bution of mobilizations, where most fail and a few succeed dramatically, oiled by social information and visibility and propelled forward by individual thresholds and tipping points” write Helen Margetts, Peter John, Scott Hale, and Taha Yasseri in Political Turbulence: How Social Media Shape Collective Action, a statement that encapsulates the book’s theme—the relationship between social media and contempo- rary collective action. The authors strongly demonstrate how Internet-based social media reshape the context within which citizens operate and influence their decisions on political engagements.

How can I express my gratitude in so few words? What specifically should I thank everyone for? But it turns out my concerns were misplaced. Although many people have been incredibly helpful, writing these acknowledgments has been very easy. I would like to express genuine gratitude to my supervisors, Dr. Taha Yasseri and Prof. Helen Margetts OBE, for your help, support and insights, and for your roles in my academic development. It has been a privilege working with you, and through your supervision I have learnt more than I ever anticipated when I started my PhD. Taha, you have provided incredible and incisive input across all of the methods, analysis and interpretation – the computational aspect of this work would simply not be possible without you. Helen, you have helped to mould this PhD and drive the theoretical arguments. Your critical insights and ability to identify the real value in any analysis are second to none. I appreciate all of the time you have each put in to this project, and I sincerely look forward to working with both of you in the future.

  • Investigating Political Participation and Social Information Using Big Data and a Natural Experiment
    Investigating Political Participation and Social Information Using Big Data and a Natural Experiment Scott A. Hale1, Peter John2, Helen Margetts1 and Taha Yasseri1* 1 Oxford Internet Institute, University of Oxford, Oxford, UK 2 School of Public Policy, University College London, London, UK Prepared for delivery at the 2014 Annual Meeting of the American Political Science Association, August 28-31, 2014. Abstract Social information is particularly prominent in digital settings where the design of platforms can more easily give real-time information about the behaviour of peers and reference groups and thereby stimulate political activity. Changes to these platforms can generate natural experiments allowing an assessment of the impact of changes in social information and design on participation. This paper investigates the impact of the introduction of trending information on the homepage of the UK government petitions platform. Using interrupted time series and a regression discontinuity design, we find that the introduction of the trending feature had no statistically significant effect on the overall number of signatures per day, but that the distribution of signatures across petitions changes—the most popular petitions gain even more signatures at the expense of those with less signatories. We find significant differences between petitions trending at different ranks, even after controlling for each petition’s individual growth prior to trending. The findings suggest a non-negligible group of individuals visit the homepage of the site looking for petitions to sign and therefore see the list of trending petitions, and a significant proportion of this group responds to the social information that it provides. These findings contribute to our understanding of how social information, and the form in which it is presented, affects individual political behaviour in digital settings.

  • Government As a Platform: What Can Estonia Show the World?
    GOVERNMENT AS A PLATFORM: WHAT CAN ESTONIA SHOW THE WORLD? Helen Margetts and Andre Naumann Oxford Internet Institute, University of Oxford ABSTRACT The concept of Government as a Platform (GaaP) is based on a digital foundation for government to share data, software and services, and has been proposed as an efficient, effective and innovative model for government, particularly in the UK. But it has come nearest to being realised in Estonia, where underlying layers of data registries, information exchange, secure identification and front-end portals form a platform upon which digital services have been built, earning a global reputation for digital government. This paper looks at the Estonian case across the seven principles of GaaP put forward by its original architect, Tim O’Reilly: openness, simplicity, participation, ‘learning from hackers’, data mining, experimentation, and ‘leading by example’. It finds that openness, simplicity, participation and leading by example – have been core to the design – and to the success - of the Estonian digital government, prioritised over the more ‘bottom-up’ principles, such as experimentation, leading to a centrally driven, rational, data efficient model that has benefitted from sustained leadership. In contrast, the UK government and (from 2011) the Government Digital Service has embraced the more informal principles of experimentation, a ‘hacking’ culture and data mining, but has struggled with openness, simplicity and participation, and is now challenged in its central leadership role. This comparative analysis provides some possible lessons for good government (for example, in terms of citizen focus and flexibility) in both countries, and for the GaaP model itself. Digital technologies have long been heralded as having the potential to revolutionise public administration.
