We are happy to share with you the publication of a new book Media Representations of Anti-Austerity Protests in the EU: Grievances, Identities and Agency <https://www.routledge.com/Media-Representations-of-Anti-Austerity-Protests-in-the-EU-Grievances/Papaioannou-Gupta/p/book/9781138685932>, edited by Tao Papaioannou and Suman Gupta (Routledge, 2018).

*Description*

This book analyzes constructions of injustice, group identification and participation in news and social media in anti-austerity protests within the European Union (EU). Since 2008, EU member-states have witnessed waves of protests and demonstrations against the adoption of austerity measures and alignment of domestic economies with the prevailing global neoliberal order. Understanding how the media represents dissent and how it influences public deliberation is of critical importance. It is accordingly necessary to explore the strategies deployed and role played by news and social media in representing and perhaps acting upon anti-austerity protests in the Eurozone crisis. This volume undertakes such a critical exploration.
