Read excerpt
One of the main findings of my decade-long research on social media and Arab identity, with a focus on Oman, is that social media has created new opportunities for Omanis to participate in civic engagement and to communicate directly with officials. Public participation in decision-making had been a long-standing wish among many Omanis.
