Unpacking “Expat”
While terms like “immigrant” and “migrant” have become commonplace in our globalized world, the term “expatriate” is used much less frequently, even though self‐described “expat” communities abound within many countries. The main difference between immigrants and expats has frequently defined simply as whether people are moving to another country permanently or with no definite timeline. Yet colloquially, the term expat often involves preconcepti…

Diversity and Inclusion in Data Activism
Contentious issues around data politics can often involve complex technical aspects that are difficult for everyday people to understand. This can impede how well the frames of social movements dealing with such issues are able to resonate with different segments of society, which can in turn shape the diversity and inclusiveness of their activist culture. To understand this effect, this study comparatively analyzes two prominent data activist gr…
The future of the internet hangs in the balance
Opportunities are often conceptualized as ‘openings’ in a social movement’s external environment which can reduce the cost of collective action, while threat is a force which increases the cost of inaction. These concepts were originally formulated to describe the political contexts of traditional offline movements, therefore how are they perceived and framed by activists in the digital environment of data? This study utilizes qualitative themati…

Bringing together scholars from psychology, sociology, communications, and political science, this cutting-edge volume uses social science theory to investigate aspects of QAnon. Following an introduction to the 'who, what, and why' of QAnon, Part I focuses on the psychological characteristics of QAnon…
Drive-By Solidarity
This article offers a theoretical and empirical exploration of a form of solidarity in which one group spontaneously mobilizes in support of another, unrelated group. It is a fleeting solidarity based not on shared identity but on temporarily aligned goals, one aimed less at persistence and more at short-term impact. We call this drive-by solidarity because of its spontaneous, unilateral, and unsolicited nature. We argue that it is a “thinner” fo…
Active Solidarity
While solidarity lies at the heart of collective action, it is not easily achieved. Social movements are characterized not only by difference within activist ranks but also by power asymmetries that reflect broader domination and distrust. The concept of intersectional solidarity is central to contemporary social justice movements’ efforts to negotiate these divisions, but how can it be achieved? To answer this question, we offer some guidelines …
