Hi Sukaina,

You may be interested in the work of Paolo Gerbaudo, who is working on very similar topics... http://www.tweetsandthestreets.org/ and http://www.kcl.ac.uk/artshums/depts/cmci/people/academic/gerbaudo/index.aspx

Hi all,
Are there any theories/models related to social media use or political
communication?

I am doing a research in relation to social media use in Libyan revolution
context. My main objectives are:
-To find out how social media has been used among Libyans during the
revolutionary and post-revolutionary period, through conducting
semi-structured interviews and doing content analysis of sample of public
Facebook pages.

-To explore young Libyans’ perception regarding the impact of social media
on their views and attitudes in relation to the revolution and
post-revolutionary period.

Do you have any suggestions? Will be helpful for me if you share your
knowledge.

Thanks,
