What can flame-throwing squirrels tell us about human emotion? Can
social media empower political activism? How has the internet
changed the way we form our identities? Do algorithms have a social
role? What is digital society? In the early 21st century, digital
media and the social have become irreversibly intertwined. In this
cutting-edge introduction, author Simon Lindgren explores what it
means to live in a digital society. Neatly divided into three
sections, Digital Media and Society expertly leads students
through: Theories: from social media and cyber-optimism, to online
social interaction and social change Topics: from emotion,
participation and the public sphere, to the impact of data,
software and mobile technology Tools: from digital ethnography,
social network analysis and text-mining, to guidance on digital
ethics and mixing methods With succinct explanations of key
concepts and theories, practical exercises to aid understanding and
application, and suggested further reading sections to guide
students through the literature and enhance their own research,
this is a must-have resource for all students of the digital
society. Digital Media and Society is essential reading for
undergraduate and postgraduate courses exploring digital media,
social media, media and society, media sociology, and the Internet.
