About this book

Eylaf Bader Eddin studies language as a marker of Syrian society and traces how political, economic, cultural and social upheaval transformed it during the Arab Spring and the Syrian uprising. Focusing on collective slogans, expressions and new forms of speech, the book shows how language emerged from protest locations and spread through globalised communication. It offers a cultural history of revolution at the level of words, revealing how public language both records and produces political change.
