Author: Gaurav Desai

Category : Political Science
Languages : en

Book Description
This book explores how new media technologies such as e-mails, online forums, blogs and social networking sites have helped shape new forms of public spheres.

Beginning with philosophical approaches to the subject, the book goes on to explore the innovative deployment of new media in areas as diverse as politics, social activism, piracy, sexuality, ethnic identity and education. The book will immensely interest those in media, culture and gender studies, philosophy, political science, sociology and anthropology.
