New Noise

A Cultural Sociology of Digital Disruption

Beschreibung

This book is about online subcultures thriving in the border zones between pop cultural and political engagement. Combining classic theories of space, power and resistance with current case studies of digital piracy, online activism and remix culture, the book develops a cultural theory of social movements in the digital age.

Simon Lindgren is Professor of Sociology at Umeå University, Sweden. He researches digital culture with a focus on how new media audiences navigate the border landscape between the new potentials for participation and activism on the one hand, and the risks for exclusion and exploitation on the other.

He has published internationally on themes like hacktivism, digital piracy, citizen journalism, subcultural creativity, popular culture, and visual politics.
