Course: Online Communication and Religious Nationalism
Recent events such as the success of right wing politics in
an atmosphere of vitriol- and anger-induced social media
communication have led to critical engagement with online
politics and citizen participation worldwide. But when we zoom

trolling work the same way everywhere? What role do South
Asian languages such as Hindi, Urdu, and English play to
establish ways of communicating via online platforms?
