Once a specialised and niche field within internet and digital media studies, internet governance has in recent years moved to the forefront of policy debate. In the wake of scandals such as Cambridge Analytica and the global 'techlash' against digital monopolies, platform studies are undergoing a critical turn, but there is a greater need to connect such analysis to questions of public policy. This volume does just that, through a rich array of chapters exploring the operation and influence of digital platforms and their related policy concerns. A wide array of digital communication platforms are explored, including social media, content portals, search engines and app stores."-- Taken from back cover.Item type | Current library | Class number | Status | Date due | Barcode | |
