Title
The Role of Social Media Sites on Social Movements against Policy Changes.
Abstract
Social1 media sites have become a very important part of the life of many individuals, and they have become the tool to express ideas freely, which can influence the opinions of others, and help to organize people to protest policy changes. Such could have been the case of the protests and plundering resulting from the release of fuel prices in Mexico. We hope to better understand this phenomenon by analyzing tweets posted within the dates that preceded and followed the increase of fuel price, by applying techniques of topic extraction and automatic text analysis. This research can be useful to governments to understand their citizens' reactions and needs.
