Contributors comprise an interdisciplinary and international group of scholars grounded predominantly in anthropology and media studies. Their diverse studies in the global north and south approach extreme speech online as a cultural practice situated within wider social struggles. The collection reveals the dynamics of exclusionary politics that paradoxically thrive in the age of digital connectivity.\"—Victoria Bernal, author of Nation as Network: Diaspora, Cyberspace, and Citizenship, Professor of Anthropology, University of California, Irvine\u003cbr\u003e \"This superb collection contains a number of stimulating contributions by authors from around the world. The introduction lays out the book's unique intellectual re-reading of online extreme speech, civility, and rationality. It offers insightful and innovative ways of understanding these issues from decolonial and ethnographically grounded approaches. This is the only book to connect history, colonial formations, and coloniality in the study of extreme speech in the digital age.\"—Sarah Chiumbu, Associate Professor, Department of Communication \u0026amp; Media, University of Johannesburg\u003cbr\u003e \"How is the term 'hate speech' mobilized to further specific political ends, so deepening rather than alleviating inequalities in the public domain? This is the question that this highly sophisticated collection of essays addresses, drawing on a wide range of cases from Kenya to Chile, the Philippines to Germany. These deeply contextualized studies constitute a huge step forward in our understanding of the cultural and technological underpinnings of extreme speech on a global scale—a landmark study.\"—Nick Couldry, London School of Economics and Political Science\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe euphoria that has accompanied the birth and expansion of the internet as a \"liberation technology\" is increasingly eclipsed by an explosion of vitriolic language on a global scale.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eDigital Hate: The Global Conjuncture of Extreme Speech\u003c\/i\u003e provides the first distinctly global and interdisciplinary perspective on hateful language online.
