Hi all
I have been reading an interesting article on the civil rights movement by Kenneth T. Andrews and Michael Biggs, "The Dynamics of Protest Diffusion: Movement Organizations, Social Networks, and News Media in the 1960 Sit-Ins" (ASR, 2006) which maps protest diffusion in Southern cities according to the three different factors in the title (presence of SMOs, personal connections, distance from daily papers). All things being equal and opposite, I was wondering if anyone could point me to (a) paper(s) adopting a similar kind of multi-factor, comparative approach to Internet-based protest diffusion?
Thanks in advance,
Mathieu
