This collection brings together new research on contemporary media, politics and power. It explores ways and means through which media can and do empower or dis-empower citizens at the margins that is, how they act as vehicles of, or obstacles to, civic agency and social change.
“Media, Margins and Civic Agency explores the extent to which media serve as catalysts or obstacles to civic activism and social transformation. … this is an engaging book on the challenges and opportunities in framing the groups at the margins afforded by social media and sometimes mainstream media.” (Weiwu Zhang, Communication Booknotes Quarterly, Vol. 47 (1), 2016)
