[Air-L] Qualitative analysis of Twitter data

[Osman Ahmed]

Hi Satarupa, 

Our work wasnt related to social/protest movements, but we conducted a study looking at tweets related to concussion in sport and used basic content analysis on the tweets we retrieved:

Hope that helps! 

Best wishes,

Subject: [Air-L] Qualitative analysis of Twitter data

Dear Scholars,

I am conducting research on the social media (Twitter) discourses of the
Anna Hazare anti-corruption movement in India. I have a corpus of tweets
collected during five days that are significant for the movement. I would
highly appreciate any recommendations for literature on qualitative
(thematic/discourse/content) analysis of Twitter data, especially in the
context of a social/protest movement.

Please feel free to write to me off the list if you have any questions.

Thanks a lot in advance!
