Recent years have seen a proliferation of speculation about the
impact of new digital technologies in virtually all areas of
society. The fields of entertainment, leisure, media and
communications, work, education and culture are all undergoing
radical transformation, and technological change is clearly a vital
feature of these transformations. Young people are central to the
debate in a number of ways - as privileged users of new cultural
and entertainment forms, as uncritical consumers, and as the future
citizenry of the new digital age but also as objects of anxiety.
This work explores the diverse ways in which young people are
active social agents in the production of youth culture in the
digital age. It collects an international range of empirical
accounts describing the ways in which young people utilize and
appropriate new technology. The contributors draw on a range of
theoretical perspectives including cultural studies, social
anthropology and feminism.
