Reviews

Dahlgren reflects with great clarity and insight upon forms of 'alternative' - or 'extra-parliamentary' - online political action. This is an under-studied theme and this book will contribute to the literature in ways that previous studies of the Internet and political democracy have not. - Stephen Coleman, University of Leeds, UK
