MISIR DEVRİMİ’NDE SOSYAL MEDYANIN ROLÜ

Sosyal medya, toplumsal örgütlenme modellerinde son dönemde önemi giderek artan bir rol üstlenmiştir. Sosyal medyanın uzun yıllar otoriter rejimler altında yaşayan insanların demokrasi ve sosyal adalet taleplerinin ateşlenmesinde nasıl bir işlevi olduğu farklı disiplinler için inceleme konusu olmuştur. 2011 yılının ilk yarısında Orta Doğu, pek çok isyan ve ayaklanmaya sahne oldu. Bu isyanlar çoğu zaman “Facebook Devrimi” ya da “Twitter Devrimi” olarak adlandırılmıştır. Bu çalışmada Mısır’da 2011’in ilk döneminde patlak veren isyanı hazırlayan koşulların neler olduğu ortaya konup sosyal medyanın süreci nasıl etkilediği sorularına cevap aranacaktır. Bu amaçla 25 Ocak 2011’de başlayan ve 11 Şubat’ta Mübarek’in istifa etmesine neden olan gösteriler ve bu gösterilerin örgütlenmesi sürecinde sosyal medyanın rolü ele alınacaktır.

Mısır Devrimi’nde Sosyal Medyanın Rolü

The importance of the new media is increasing day-by-day. Social media, which is one of the most common tools of the new media, has ignited the demands for democracy and justice from people who lived under the pressure of authoritarian regimes for many years. These functions of social media have become a prominent research subject for different disciplines. The Middle East has witnessed many uprisings in 2011. These uprisings have often been anointed as “Facebook Revolution” or “Twitter Revolution.” In this study, the circumstances that have caused the rebellion that cropped up in Egypt will be revealed and the question of how social media has affected this process will be answered. With these aims, the protests that began on January 25th 2011, eventuallyforcing Hosni Mubarak to resign on February 11th 2011, and the role of social media on the organizing process of these protests, is going to be discussed.
