  • As digital media come to saturate more and more of our societies, what benefits and challenges do they bring?
  • Who holds power in contemporary media industries, and do they have our best interests at heart?
  • What role do media play in our cultural identities and the relations between communities?
  • How much control do media users have over the role of platforms, algorithms and data in their lives?

Media increasingly dominate our social and cultural worlds, affecting issues of power, politics, knowledge, identity, and everyday life.  But what are the implications of the mediatisation of contemporary life, and how should we make sense of it?
