我们使用大约25,000名ISIS同情者在Twitter上发布的超过190万条消息的数据集,探索ISIS如何利用社交媒体传播其宣传并从阿拉伯世界和地球仪招募武装分子。通过区分暴力驱动的,神学和宗派内容,我们跟踪网络言论和地面上的关键事件之间的联系。据我们所知,我们的研究是最早关注阿拉伯文内容的研究之一,而大多数文献都关注英文内容。我们的研究结果产生了新的重要见解,即激进激进组织如何利用社交媒体来针对阿拉伯语世界,并揭示了他们宣传工作的重要模式。
Using a dataset of over 1.9 million messages posted on Twitter by about 25,000 ISIS sympathizers, we explore how ISIS makes use of social media to spread its propaganda and recruit militants from the Arab world and across the globe. By distinguishing between violence-driven, theological, and sectarian content, we trace the connection between online rhetoric and key events on the ground. To the best of our knowledge, ours is one of the first studies to focus on Arabic content, while most literature focuses on English content. Our findings yield new important insights about how social media is used by radical militant groups to target the Arab-speaking world, and reveal important patterns in their propaganda efforts.
