Dynamics Of Mediatization

This volume sheds light on the underlying dynamics of mediatization, disentangling the actual unfolding of mediatization processes. The wide adoption and deep embedding of digital media and technology brings new questions to mediatization studies: how can we grasp this 'deep mediatization'? In which way should we develop existing approaches of mediatization to analyse such dynamics? What are the consequences of this for theorising and empirically studying mediatization? By using these questions as a starting point, this book presents an innovative and original collection that is dedicated to both the underlying dynamics of mediatization and recent dynamics related to digital media.

The outcome of the discussions in the Mediatization Section of the European Communications Research and Education Association (ECREA) Aims to give the field of mediatization research a new direction and push Focusses on the underlying dynamics of mediatization
