Digital Protest and Activism in Public Education: Reactions to Neoliberal Restructuring in Israel
This book addresses this gap and employs an empirical exploration of the way in which online-based protest activity concerning public education issues is constructed, mobilised, and carried out. The authors highlight three cases of online-based mobilisations in Israel, in which teachers and parents successfully affected public education policy.
