This book addresses these questions by focusing on the most digitally embedded segment of Chinese population - university students. Using survey evidence from more than 1200 observations, data confirm that Internet exposure to information generated by fellow netizens promotes democratic orientation, enhances political resistance to indoctrination, and boosts popular nationalism. However, exposure to government-managed websites encourages regime support and, at a less significance level, decreases democratic orientation, and elevates official patriotism. Building upon quantitative evidence, this book draws a nuanced picture of Internet exposure and its political implications.
