商品描述

How maturing digital media and network technologies are transforming place, culture, politics, and infrastructure in our everyday life.

Digital media and network technologies are now part of everyday life. The Internet has become the backbone of communication, commerce, and media; the ubiquitous mobile phone connects us with others as it removes us from any stable sense of location. Networked Publics examines the ways that the social and cultural shifts created by these technologies have transformed our relationships to (and definitions of) place, culture, politics, and infrastructure.

Four chapters--each by an interdisciplinary team of scholars using collaborative software--provide a synoptic overview along with illustrative case studies. The chapter on place describes how digital networks enable us to be present in physical and networked places simultaneously--often at the expense of nondigital commitments. The chapter on culture explores the growth and impact of amateur-produced and remixed content online. The chapter on politics examines the new networked modes of bottom-up political expression and mobilization. And finally, the chapter on infrastructure notes the tension between openness and control in the flow of information, as seen in the current controversy over net neutrality.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

數位媒體和網路技術的成熟如何改變我們日常生活中的地點、文化、政治和基礎設施。

數位媒體和網路技術如今已成為日常生活的一部分。網際網路已成為溝通、商業和媒體的支柱;無處不在的手機使我們能夠與他人連接,同時也使我們失去了對任何穩定地點的感知。網路公共領域探討了這些技術所帶來的社會和文化變遷如何改變我們對地點、文化、政治和基礎設施的關係(及其定義)。

四個章節——每個章節由一個跨學科的學者團隊使用協作軟體撰寫——提供了綜合概述以及具體案例研究。關於地點的章節描述了數位網路如何使我們能夠同時存在於實體和網路場所——這往往以非數位承諾為代價。關於文化的章節探討了業餘創作和重混內容在線上的增長與影響。關於政治的章節檢視了新的網路化自下而上的政治表達和動員方式。最後,關於基礎設施的章節指出了在資訊流通中開放性與控制之間的緊張關係,這在當前的網路中立性爭議中得以體現。
