Intellect Books will launch its ‘Mediated Cities’ book series with three volumes at the conference ‘Digital-Cultural Ecology and the Medium-Sized City’, April 2016. Bristol, UK.

Themes include how can the medium sized city resist the hegemony of capital cities through the use of new technologies; how do new medias facilitate engagement in city wide debates from community activists; does the digital age alter the economy and or culture of how cities are managed.

Papers submitted to this conference will form the backbone of the fourth book in the series. To submit, visit:
