The volume outlines the history of alternative media use and the ways in 
which it has become a tool for the critics of the neoliberal economic 
system in Turkey. The collection concentrates on social media use within 
social movements and applies interdisciplinary approaches and research 
methods, ranging from cinema and visual arts to sociology, political 
science, content analysis and ethnographic study.
