Meanwhile, in Russia...: Russian Internet Memes and Viral Video de Professor Eliot Borenstein

Meanwhile, in Russia...: Russian Internet Memes and Viral Video: Russian Shorts

Autor Professor Eliot Borenstein
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 23 feb 2022
The Russian internet is a hotbed for memes and viral videos: the political, satirical and simply absurd compete for attention in Russia while the West turns to it for an endless reserve of humorous content. But how did this powerful cyber community grow out of the repressive media environment of the Soviet Union? What does this viral content reveal about the country, its politics and its culture? And why are the memes and videos of today's Russia so popular, spreading so rapidly across the globe? Award-winning author Eliot Borenstein explores the explosive online movement and unpicks, for the first time, the role of mimetic content and digital activism in modern Russian history up to the present day.

Recenzii

Eliot Borenstein's portrait of online creativity in Russia is deft, witty, and thought-provoking, it makes you laugh and it makes you learn. A short book with a big impact.
By plunging into the world of Russian internet memes, Eliot Borenstein offers a visually exciting, highly readable, humorous and, at the same time, truly original and profound history of Russian culture in the first decades of the 21st century. A pleasure for anyone interested in contemporary Russia, this book has unique educational value - any course based on it will be a hit.
The author has conducted an in-depth analysis of the CSTO as a case study of post-Soviet integration. He relies on a clear methodological approach, using a wide range of factual data obtained from relevant sources. and theoretical research. The book will be of interest to a wide range of readers, from researchers and students to everyone interested in regional integration issues, security cooperation and functional organisations.
