Is a cyber-attack a message? New chapter on communication and cyber-security

June 3, 2020 Administrator
If you wanted to undermine Boris Johnson, would you make a speech about his weaknesses or stop Netflix and Amazon Prime working?

If you wanted to undermine Boris Johnson, would you make a speech about his weaknesses or stop Netflix and Amazon Prime working?

NPCU’s Ben O’Loughlin and recent PhD Alexi Drew have published a chapter in Bill Dutton’s new volume, A Research Agenda for Digital Politics. They explore how security acts — like taking down a country’s bank services — can serve as a direct tool of communication. This shows that strategic narratives often only count if they follow decisive action and attribution of responsibility.

This is Alexi’s first published book chapter! Congratulations!

In the book, experts from several fields consider how digital politics is working. It is a great collection by Bill and features many former NPCU staff and guests. If you need an overview of the big questions experts are raising now, take a look.
