Zusammenfassung: | In recent years, the Middle East's information and communication landscape has changed dramatically. Increasingly, states, businesses, and citizens are capitalising on the opportunities offered by new technologies, the fast pace of digitisation, and enhanced connectivity. These changes are far from turning Middle Eastern nations into network societies, but their impact is significant. The growing adoption of a wide variety of technologies in everyday life has given rise to complex dynamics that beg for a better understanding. 'Digital Middle East' sheds a critical light on the continuing changes closely intertwined with the adoption of information and communication technologies in the region. Drawing on case studies from throughout the Middle East, the contributors explore how these digital transformations are playing out in the social, cultural, political, and economic spheres, exposing the various disjunctions and discordances that have marked the advent of the digital Middle East |

In recentyears, the Middle East s information
and communications landscape has changed
dramatically. Increasingly, states, businesses,
and citizens are capitalizing on the oppor-
tunities offered by new information
technologies, the fast pace of digitization,
and enhanced connectivity. These changes
are far from turning Middle Eastern nations
into network societies, but their impact is
significant. The growing adoption of a wide
variety of information technologies and new
media platforms in everyday life has given
rise to complex dynamics that beg for a
better understanding.
Digital Middle Eastsheds a critical light on
the continuing changes closely intertwined
with the adoption of information and
communication technologies in the region.
Drawing on case studies from throughout
the Middle East, the contributors explore
how these digital transformations are
playing out in the social, cultural, political,
and economic spheres, exposing the various
disjunctions and discordances that have
marked the advent of the digital Middle East.
