lara [203]

"<em>The role of Social Media on the Arab uprisings</em>" is a study that analyzes the level of  influence that the use of Internet and social media served as effective tools for organizing and planning the protests, while providing awareness to the outside world regarding what was really happening during the Arab Spring, a movement that started in late 2010 as a response to oppressive regimes.

The Options that sustain the claim are the following:  

  1. “Networks formed on line were crucial in organizing a core group of activists, specifically in Egypt.”
  2. “Civil society leaders in Arab countries emphasized the role of ‘the Internet, mobile phones, and social media’ in the protests.”

When can the way we look at things lead to growth and when can it hold it back?
pav-90 [236]

<u>Answer:</u>

It is very important how we look at things.

<u>Explanation:</u>
