With this book, Hall intends to illustrate and analyze Facebook's effect on the Brexit campaign. Her book concentrates on Facebook users active during the period after the referendum (2017–19) who were born before 1980. Hall chooses this age group to capture those who have had the experience of “adapting to a rapidly changing world” (p. 9). The work also stands out because Hall complements quantitative work on social media, including interviews and "immersive observational research," with methodologies designed to understand users' intent and affect, along with the context of norms and rules surrounding particular behaviors in Facebook's milieu. Hall concludes that Facebook provided the agency for its users' grievances and an opportunity for Euroskeptic, right-wing Populism to take shape. Brexit, Facebook, and Transnational Right-Wing Populism is appropriate for general readers and scholars in political science, journalism and communication, and sociology, among other disciplines. Recommended. General readers through faculty.
