Looking for your creative help for an online harassment research fellowship
Hi all, I am an undergraduate student in the U.S. studying free expression and digital rights. I am developing a proposal for a year-long fellowship that would allow me to travel to several countries (e.g. Russia, South Korea) to study cross-cultural differences in online harassment and trolling. I’m looking for region specific suggestions of factors to study and who to interview. For instance, were I to go to Russia, I could conduct a journalistic investigation of troll factory employees. If anyone could point me to relevant literature examining cultural differences in online harassment (e.g. based on platform use like Facebook vs Weibo or differences in access like cell phones vs internet cafés) or researchers to contact, I would be very appreciative.
