New article just out: a review of government social media communication literature + suggestions for future research

www.cogitatiopress.com/mediaandcomm...
Government Communication on Social Media: Research Foci, Domains, and Future Directions. By Sten Hansson & Nic DePaula. The aim of this review essay is to draw attention to the diversity of work done in the field of government social media communication research. It is a rapidly developing area of study that has been approached from multiple disciplinary perspectives and a variety of research traditions. We suggest that studies of government social media communication may be broadly classified based on two characteristics: (a) whether their focus is mainly on the senders, messages, media, audiences, or effects of communication; and (b) the domains of government policy and public administration that they address. We review existing literature along this classification and conclude by suggesting fruitful directions for future research.
