This book explores the relationship of the media and politics to
America's largest generational group, the millennial generation. As
the group has become voting eligible since the 2008 election, the
traditional news media has been largely critical of youth
behaviors, civic engagement, and political participation. Novak
addresses how this primarily negative coverage has significantly
influenced the generation's views of politics and news media, and
has contributed to their adoption of digital technologies in the
search of more equitable and trustworthy political information.
Media, Millennials, and Politics explores how this relationship has
unfolded across the 2008, 2010, 2012, and 2014 American elections
and provides insight into what political participation in the
millennial generation may look like in the future.

Since the popularization of Internet technologies in the mid-1990s,
human identity and collective culture has been dramatically shaped
by our continued use of digital communication platforms and
engagement with the digital world. Despite a plethora of
scholarship on digital technology, questions remain regarding how
these technologies impact personal identity and perceptions of
global culture. Defining Identity and the Changing Scope of Culture
in the Digital Age explores a multitude of topics pertaining to
self-hood, self-expression, human interaction, and perceptions of
civilization and culture in an age where technology has become
integrated into every facet of our everyday lives. Highlighting
issues of race, ethnicity, and gender in digital culture,
interpersonal and computer-mediated communication, pop culture,
social media, and the digitization of knowledge, this pivotal
reference publication is designed for use by scholars,
psychologists, sociologists, and graduate-level students interested
in the fluid and rapidly evolving norms of identity and culture
through digital media.
