Communicative Figurations : Transforming Communications in Times of Deep Mediatization, Hardback Book

Communicative Figurations : Transforming Communications in Times of Deep Mediatization Hardback

Edited by Andreas Hepp, Andreas Breiter, Uwe Hasebrink

Part of the Transforming Communications - Studies in Cross-Media Research series

Hardback

Description

This open access volume assesses the influence of our changing media environment.

Today, there is not one single medium that is the driving force of change.

With the spread of various technical communication media such as mobile phones and internet platforms, we are confronted with a media manifold of deep mediatization.

But how can we investigate its transformative capability?

This book answers this question by taking a non-media-centric perspective, researching the various figurations of collectivities and organizations humans are involved in.

The first part of the book outlines a fundamental understanding of the changing media environment of deep mediatization and its transformative capacity.

The second part focuses on collectivities and movements: communities in the city, critical social movements, maker, online gaming groups and networked groups of young people.

The third part moves institutions and organizations into the foreground, discussing the transformation of journalism, religion, politics, and education, whilst the fourth and final part is dedicated to methodologies and perspectives.
