Description
Summary:Social media has revolutionised social interactions thereby influencing day to day economic, social, political and also the security and stability in United Arab Emirates and the world in general. A number of theories, including the cute cat theory, have been proposed for management of uprising through social media as experienced in MENA a few years ago. The primary aim of the study is to investigate the threat of social media usage to public behavioural propensities in the UAE and how these threats may be moderated by building on the social impact theory forces of number, strength and immediacy.
