“…In IR and social movements studies, the Arab Spring, including the expansion of the revolts, has been studied through various perspectives. These perspectives are as follows; the role of social media (Axford, 2011;Dajani, 2012;Khondker, 2011;Lynch, 2014;Tufekci & Wilson, 2012), the analysis about the role of regional and international geopolitics with a particular focus on political and economic grievances (Hollis, 2012;Ryan, 2014;Solomon 2018) and rational frameworks of diffusion and mobilization of revolts in the Arab region inspired by various models of mobilizations in social movements studies including the general role of emotions in different theoretical perspectives looking at empirical examples (Aminzade & McAdam, 2001;Calhoun, 2001;Goodwin, Jasper, & Polletta, 2000Goodwin & Pfaff, 2001;Hale, 2013;Jasper, 1998;Kemper, 2001;McAdam, 1982;Patel, Valerie, & Sharon, 2014;Tilly, 1978;Walsh, 1981;Weyland, 2012). Various novel analyses have been assessed on insurrectional politics, cosmopolitan aspects of the Arab Spring, the concept of 'the Global Street', the impact of globalization on movements in the Arab region, women's role in the Arab Spring, and microfoundational analysis of emotions from a neurosciences perspective in the Arab Spring (Agathangelou & Soguk, 2011;Carreon & Moghadam, 2015;Moghadam, 2013;Pearlman, 2013;Sassen, 2011;Soguk, 2015).…”
