As the world of technological communication has exponentially grown, the world has become interconnected in a way it never has before. While the vast social and economic developments cannot be overlooked, experts across various fields have identified negative externalities resulting from this technological boom. One negative externality that has gained attention in recent years relates to the hateful, divisive rhetoric and incitement over mobile texts, social media, and closed messaging apps that are increasingly associated with social polarization and political violence. Editors Babak Bahador, Rachel Brown, Craig Hammer, and Laura Livingston aim to use Countering Online Hate and its Offline Consequences in Conflict-Fragile Settings as a resource for academics, NGOs, and other professionals seeking to understand and develop communication responsibly, as well as explore how communication technology has already contributed to global conflict dynamics.
