5(1) 2019: Inequalities and Divides in Digital Cultures
Permanent URI for this collectionhttps://mediarep.org/handle/doc/16615
This issue presents empirical studies as well as theoretical and methodological reflections on inequalities and divides in digital cultures. From various (inter-)disciplinary perspectives, the authors examine three main themes – inequality of access, inequality by design and discursive divides, and inequality by algorithms – while suggesting ways for research to move beyond these.
