Using a combination of case study materials, theoretical reflection, and critical analysis, New Media Worlds explores four central issues for the study of new media and their impact on user communities:



· The Impact of Convergence on Traditional Media: The text explores the implications of media convergence for everyday media use and for the policy context.



· Activism: Case studies investigate how user communities with special access needs are ensuring they are not denied access to the emerging world of media.



· Access: Overviews of controversial issues introduce the debate as to which social and cultural groups most benefit from new media policies.



· Participation: The text examines how media modifications structure audience perception.

Features
