Connected Cultures of the Network Society

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book addresses how practices contained within contemporary networked publics fit into a larger genealogy of the public sphere. Here Tierney explores concepts of public space linked to theories of communal identity, civitas and democracy, the fete, and self-expression. Through empirical research she describes the actual social practices of the participants of networked publics.
