Sponsored by the Communication, Information Technologies, and Media
Sociology section of the American Sociological Association
(CITAMS),this volume in Emerald Studies in Media and Communications
features social science research on criminality, policing, and mass
media in the digital age. Chapters offer empirically supported
studies that expand on knowledge about new possibilities for crime
and policing, representations of criminality via digital media, and
methodological considerations for contemporary studies of crime and
media. Criminality, policing, and mass media are enduring topics in
studies of the social world, and scholarly advances in these areas
are particularly pertinent in times of social and cultural change.
The digital revolution that began in post-industrial societies has
affected, to varying extents, most nations in the world,
introducing new opportunities for crime commission and law
enforcement, transforming social structures and organization, and
altering norms and practices of social interaction. Each chapter
offers empirically supported insights into the new and evolving
landscape of criminality and policing. Scholars address emerging
patterns and practices such as technologically mediated intimate
partner violence, digitally altered pornography and its
consequences, and algorithm-supported methods of policing;
representations of criminals and law enforcement in international
news and entertainment media; and research methods for studying
crime and media in a changing world.
