[ecrea] Media, Power and Revolution INVITE 2,3,4 APRIL 2012

Media, Power&  Revolution: Making the 21st Century
Senate House, London
2,3,4 April 2012

Save the date for the landmark media conference hosted by the Goldsmiths Leverhulme Media Research Centre.

From Twitter and Facebook revolutions to phone hacking and the power of the
Murdoch empire, Wiki-leaks, and the Abu-Ghraib photographs -- a new
intensity links power, revolution, and the media in the twenty-first
century. The new media do make a difference, but what exactly is the nature
of that difference? What are the crucial questions of technological form,
usage, and control that shape the political and cultural agency of
governments, corporations, political uprisings, and individuals?

Confirmed speakers to date include:

Hugh Grant
Anne Alexander
Rod Benson
Nick Couldry

Natalie Fenton
Scott Lash
Robert McChesney
