From Maidan to Myanmar. The Colour Revolution Show
<p>Why has a three-finger salute been adopted by protesters from Thailand to Myanmar? Why did rioters in Hong Kong carry bows and arrows as part of their lethal arsenal and famously declared “If we burn, you burn with us”? And why did the slogan “Hunger Games since 1994. Death to the regime” appear on banners in Belarus?</p>
<p>To answer these questions we need to look at how colour revolutions and the global media industry feed on each other to create mutually reinforcing spirals within the context of cultural imperialism, that systematic dissemination of cultural products, values, behaviors that conform with the interests of the hegemonic centre.It is also useful to consider how the reiteration of particular narratives across different media influences the construction of social and political identities.</p>
