Organisational Responses to Social Media Storms “Written in a clear and lively style, this book examines the breadth and depth of social media storms across a series of carefully crafted case studies. It offers a compelling analysis of how a new risk culture is transforming social relations and advances our critical understanding of a changing, digital world. Based on original empirical research and thought-provoking argument—this is an important and timely book.” —Professor Eamonn Carrabine, University of Essex and Editor Crime, Media, Culture “A very interesting analysis of the changing face of online safeguarding, how social media storms can create moral panics, and how organisations can respond. For anyone working in online safeguarding, this is an essential book to read.” —David Wright, Director of the UK Safer Internet Centre “This book is the fore-runner when considering new aspects of online media activity and its impact on those charged with safeguarding children and adults. It offers a topical and compelling discourse on the impact of social media storms on educational establishments and their responses to such phenomena. The authors highlight the need for safeguarding professionals to develop a far more critical approach to digital literacy through their examination of four real-life scenarios. They get you thinking “what would I do in those circumstances?” which leads to the very purpose of this book—to open up debate in an endeavour to ensure that best practice is achieved in all our dealings relating to the protection of children and adults. Well worth reading.” —Tink Palmer, MBE—CEO Marie Collins
