Timely and original, Rethinking Communication Geographies explores
the human condition under digital capitalism, depicting an
environment in which digital logistics have taken centre stage in
day-to-day life. The book responds to a pressing need to address
the key questions of human autonomy and security, as well as the
social power relations of the platform economy, in a world in which
media and space have become increasingly entangled. Establishing a
framework for understanding 'geomedia' as an environmental regime
that shapes human subjectivity, Andre Jansson advances a humanistic
and interdisciplinary approach to the study of communication
geographies, arguing that human activities are accommodated to
sustain the circulation of digital data. The book examines concrete
examples related to audio-streaming, transmedia tourism, and
platform urbanism, ultimately demonstrating how digital skills and
logistical expertise have become forms of capital in contemporary
society. Mapping ongoing transitions related to how digitalization
affects spatial processes, the unique perspectives explored in this
book will be of equal interest to postgraduates and researchers in
the fields of human geography and media and communication studies.
The innovative concepts and approaches to the study of digital
geography introduced throughout will also enhance the dialogue
between a vast range of disciplines across the humanities and
social sciences.
