Abstract "This book problematizes the relationship between politics and communication in the Middle East and North Africa region, paying attention to the diversity of communicative forms and political practices outside formal institutions and structures while remaining conscious of the power dynamics within institutional practices. Examining political communication in Palestine, Lebanon, Egypt, Morocco, Iraq, Syria, the Gulf, Turkey and Iran, the book's chapters challenge Western-centric theories and methodologies within the broad field of political communication that continue to focus on democracy or its absence and are primarily concerned with elites, focusing on the marginal or the peripheral, the informal, and the grassroots"-- Provided by publisher.
