Social media and polarisation: what (else) do we see in environmental debates online?
With Rina Tsubaki und Rahel Könen
How do social media and journalistic practices on these platforms contribute to the polarisation of public debates on issues like forest fires, wildlife protection, and rewilding? Do social media polarise debates, or do they bring different communities of actors together? Most importantly, what do our online mapping analyses tell us about the media's role when climate-linked events unfold? This workshop will explore the materials from our research to close-read, co-interpret, and collectively reflect on “what happens” on social media platforms at different levels of engagement.
