Blogging in Beirut - An Ethnography of a Digital Media Practice, Paperback / softback Book

Blogging in Beirut - An Ethnography of a Digital Media Practice Paperback / softback

Part of the Culture and Social Practice series

Paperback / softback

Description

Unlike previous media-analytic research, Sarah Jurkiewicz's anthropological study understands blogging as a social field and a domain of practice.

This approach underlines the significance of blogging in practitioners' daily lives and for their self-understanding.

In this context, the notion of publicness enables a consideration of publics not as static "spheres" that actors merely enter, but as produced and constituted by social practices.

The vibrant media landscape of Beirut serves as a selection of samples for an ethnographic exploration of blogging.
