Mobilization for Change
The role of the networked public sphere in advancing civic
participation and collective action in the Arab region 
March 9, 2016 
“Mobilization for Change” is a series of reports examining the role of
the networked public sphere in advancing civic participation and
collective action in the Arab region. The online space in Egypt,
Tunisia, and Bahrain reflects a growingly polarized and contentious off
line political environment, with less consensus than existed five years
ago. Fieldwork corroborates insights from social network mapping in this
regard and confirms the continued importance of traditional political
powerhouses as well as off line networks in mobilization. Yet digital
media still offer a comparatively open venue for competing perspectives,
providing more freedom for individual expression than traditional media
in these countries.
