Geomedia Studies : Spaces and Mobilities in Mediatized Worlds PDF
Edited by Karin Fast, Andre Jansson, Johan Lindell, Linda Ryan Bengtsson, Mekonnen Tesfahuney
Part of the Routledge Research in Cultural and Media Studies series
Description
This book introduces and develops the concept of geomedia studies as the name of a particular subfield of communication geography. Despite the accelerating societal relevance of 'geomedia' technologies for the production of various spaces, mobilities, and power-relations, and the unquestionable emergence of a vibrant research field that deals with questions pertaining to such topics, the term geomedia studies remains surprisingly unestablished. By addressing imperative questions about the implications of geomedia technologies for organizations, social groups and individuals (e.g. businesses profiting from geo-surveillance, refugees or migrants moving across national borders, or artists claiming their rights to public space) the book also aims to contribute to ongoing academic and societal debates in our increasingly mediatized world.
