"This is a timely book, when authoritarian regimes are tightening the noose around opposing forces and critical media. The Internet, if heavily stifled, remains the environment where critics can make their voice heard. The study casts light on the amazing "digital resistance" of Alexey Navalny, a world-known Russian anti-establishment political outsider. The author's scholarly analysis of the dissident's "communication project" provides also valuable insights on the chances of a democratization of the Russian public sphere." -Gianpietro Mazzoleni, professor at the University of Milan, Italy "Sofya Glazunova has written an excellent study of the digital strategies used by Alexey Navalny in his role as an opposition politician in Russia. By placing his digital activism within the context of the Russian media scene, this book constitutes an innovative study of oppositional politics in an authoritarian regime. Anyone who wants to understand the Navalny phenomenon in contemporary Russia or the digital prospects for opposition in an authoritarian regime should read this book." -Graeme Gill, Professor Emeritus, University of Sydney, Australia This book provides an in-depth investigation of Russian online anti-establishment resistances in 2016-2019. Grounded in qualitative content analysis of the YouTube videos and social media data of opposition activist Alexey Navalny and his associates, the research covers the history of these communications, their tactics, and the impact on the Russian public sphere and peripheral electorates. Drawing from populism, journalism and digital media studies, Glazunova skilfully shows Russia's digital public sphere to be a multi-faceted site with its own struggles, challenges, and unique communication strategies for political survival. An important and original work, Digital Activism in Russia reflects on the past, present, and future of such resistances in Russia, the central role played by digital media, and its relevance for the political activists struggling for democracy around the world. Dr Sofya Glazunova is a postdoctoral research fellow at the Digital Media Research Centre, in the Queensland University of Technology, Brisbane, Australia. Her research focuses on political communication, digital resistance, authoritarianism, Russian media, 'fake news', and propaganda. In her postdoctoral research, Dr Glazunova uses a mixed-method approach to unveil digital propaganda strategies, assesses their implications for the digital publics, and elaborates a series of recommendations to combat disinformation in the Russian, Australian, and global context.

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

A Library Journal Best Book of 2015 A NPR Great Read of 2015 The Internet in Russia is either the most efficient totalitarian tool or the device by which totalitarianism will be overthrown. Perhaps both. On the eighth floor of an ordinary-looking building in an otherwise residential district of southwest Moscow, in a room occupied by the Federal Security Service (FSB), is a box the size of a VHS player marked SORM. The Russian government's front line in the battle for the future of the Internet, SORM is the world's most intrusive listening device, monitoring e-mails, Internet usage, Skype, and all social networks. But for every hacker subcontracted by the FSB to interfere with Russia's antagonists abroad -- such as those who, in a massive denial-of-service attack, overwhelmed the entire Internet in neighboring Estonia -- there is a radical or an opportunist who is using the web to chip away at the power of the state at home. Drawing from scores of interviews personally conducted with numerous prominent officials in the Ministry of Communications and web-savvy activists challenging the state, Andrei Soldatov and Irina Borogan peel back the history of advanced surveillance systems in Russia. From research laboratories in Soviet-era labor camps, to the legalization of government monitoring of all telephone and Internet communications in the 1990s, to the present day, their incisive and alarming investigation into the Kremlin's massive online-surveillance state exposes just how easily a free global exchange can be coerced into becoming a tool of repression and geopolitical warfare. Dissidents, oligarchs, and some of the world's most dangerous hackers collide in the uniquely Russian virtual world of The Red Web.

This open access handbook presents a multidisciplinary and multifaceted perspective on how the ‘digital’ is simultaneously changing Russia and the research methods scholars use to study Russia. It provides a critical update on how Russian society, politics, economy, and culture are reconfigured in the context of ubiquitous connectivity and accounts for the political and societal responses to digitalization. In addition, it answers practical and methodological questions in handling Russian data and a wide array of digital methods. The volume makes a timely intervention in our understanding of the changing field of Russian Studies and is an essential guide for scholars, advanced undergraduate and graduate students studying Russia today.
