Produktbeschreibung
Building on the momentum of the recent "historical turn" in digital media and Internet studies, this volume explores how digital journalism has developed from a historical perspective. With contributions from established and emerging scholars from Europe, Asia, South and North America, the book investigates not only how established journalistic systems transformed in the early days of digital but how the structural, technological, and cultural changes induced by digitization have reconfigured the trajectory of journalism.

The book argues in support of three main claims. The first is that emphasis should be given to the plurality of histories instead of one single digital journalism history, thereby acknowledging the complexities, interactions of social relations, cultural traditions, power configurations, and technological changes that have shaped journalism and digitization. The second is the decentralization and decolonization of digital journalism histories. The third refers to the need to highlight and demonstrate the idea that the evolution of digital journalism should be viewed as the co-construction of the social and technological realms.

With theoretical and methodological reflections on historicizing digital journalism along with original case studies or comparative inquiries into the phenomena over the decades-long digital revolution of journalism, this volume will shape the nascent field of digital journalism history and start a global critical exchange of various approaches to and aspects of historicizing digital journalism. As such, it will interest scholars and students of digital journalism, journalism history, digital media, Internet studies, and technology studies.

Rezensionen
"In this theoretically rich work, Tamas Tofalvy and Igor Vobic provide an essential guide to not just describe, but also understand the neither linear nor inevitable historical transformation of journalism around the world."

Mark Deuze, Professor of Media Studies, University of Amsterdam

"The field of journalism studies has boomed in the last decades, especially after the digital turn. There is a need for historicizing the field and reflecting on old and new practices, as this book does. It is a great exercise in reconstructing the intellectual history of journalism, theorizing and periodizing what is new and old in journalism, de-westernizing changes (and continuities) in the sector. A must-read for media and journalism historians, but also for scholars in journalism who don't want to fall into a newness ideology."

Gabriele Balbi, Full Professor in Media Studies, USI Università della Svizzera italiana (Switzerland), author of The Digital Revolution. A Short History of an Ideology (2023).

"Histories of Digital Journalism provides a much-needed corrective to the scarcity of historical perspectives in journalism studies. A truly global collection, the book offers a rich tapestry of case studies, methodological and theoretical approaches, and geographical contexts for understanding the profound transformations wrought by the digital era."

Karin Wahl-Jorgensen, Professor, School of Journalism, Media and Culture, Cardiff University, UK.
