The social phenomenon of trolling: understanding the discourse and social practices of online provocation

Vlad Demsar et al.

Summary: Despite the benefits of the online environment, it also facilitates darker consumer behaviors such as conflict, revenge, and aggression. The term 'trolling' has become a catch-all to describe almost any online misbehavior, but limited by a lack of empirical research and a focus on undiscernible 'trolls' and their behaviors. This research provides a comprehensive understanding of trolling as a social phenomenon, the social practices that constitute it, and how trolling is enacted within consumer-brand interactions, through a combination of Foucauldian archaeology and marketing practitioner interviews.
