London – “Not only sentiment, but also reasons!” Is the leitmotif of the last research carried out by the spin-off start-up of the University of Milan, echoed by The Guardian. The British newspaper published a social map depicting support to ISIS across the Arab world, made from the Milan observatory Sentiment della Rete through the analysis of 2 million post in Arabic posted on social networks between July and October 2014. The new research “draws” a map of the consensus shared by Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi across the region, analyzing not only the data collected, but also the arguments expressed by users. (9Colonne)
