[ecrea] New Book Series: Call for prospective authors

***

We are happy to announce the launch of the Routledge Book Series 
*Critical Perspectives on Citizen Media* and invite prospective authors 
to consider the book series for their next book length study, reference 
work, or edited volume.

Aims and Scope of the Series

This new series seeks to define and advance understanding of citizen 
media, understood here as the physical artefacts, digital content, 
performative interventions and discursive formations of affective 
sociality that ordinary citizens produce as they participate in public 
life to effect aesthetic or socio-political change.

Critical Perspectives on Citizen Media welcomes studies on citizen media 
content produced in both virtual and physical, as well as hybrid media 
environments. It acknowledges the important role that embodied forms of 
citizen media continue to play as influential sites of investment of 
aesthetic affectivity and/or political affinity, particularly in 
communities where digital infrastructures remain underdeveloped and 
literacy rates – digital or otherwise – are still low. At the same time, 
it aims to advance knowledge on the dialectic between citizen media and 
digital technologies, whether this is underlain by a relationship of 
empowering synergy or driven by dynamics of regulative tension – in 
those cases where the technologization of citizen media effectively 
restricts the transformative power of citizenship practices. As part of 
this second strand, the series seeks to publish studies that engage with 
the empowering or constraining impact of social networking platforms and 
other hyperlinked environments on the production, circulation and 
reception of citizen media content.

The series publishes research on the interface between citizen media and 
a range of intertwined themes, including participation, immaterial work, 
witnessing, resistance and performance. Read more about these themes on 
the series website.

Format of the Series

The series aims to publish high-quality and original studies in the form of:

Research titles that advance interdisciplinary understanding of the 
various means and practices of citizenship representation and expression 
in a range of media environments; both monographs and edited collections 
(conference proceedings are not considered for publication as part of 
this series).

Student orientated titles; either textbooks or other single authored or 
edited books aimed at undergraduate or postgraduate courses. Titles must 
fall under the umbrella of citizen media as outlined above, for which 
there is a viable or emerging market.

Website and Digital Supplements

The series is supported by an innovative web presence and the series 
editors welcome submissions for electronic supplements to book projects 
and other non-traditional forms of publishing which may be hosted on the 
site. Non-traditional forms of publishing may include, but are not 
limited to, interviews with and audio/video presentations by the authors 
of specific volumes, 3D visualizations, photo and video galleries and 
other data sets that may be produced by some of the research published 
as part of the series.
