Oxford Studies in Digital Politics: New Titles in 2018 - and a Call for 
Proposals in News and Journalism

Colleagues,

My book series with Oxford University Press will publish five new titles 
in 2018.

Francis L. F. Lee and Joseph M. Chan's fascinating, empirically-grounded 
account of the Umbrella Movement: Media and Protest Logics in the 
Digital Era: The Umbrella Movement in Hong Kong.
Ben Epstein's sweeping and beautifully-written evolutionary analysis of 
300 years U.S. political development, revealing the technological, 
behavioural, and political factors that lead to political communication 
change: The Only Constant Is Change
Technology, Political Communication, and Innovation Over Time.

Taina Bucher's hugely rich conceptual take on the role of algorithms in 
shaping sociality and connectivity: If...Then: Algorithmic Power and 
Politics.

Chris Anderson's strikingly original analysis of journalism, which 
examines "how data has been mobilized, as a form of factual evidence, 
over the course of American journalism's history":  Apostles of 
Certainty: Data Journalism and the Politics of Doubt. (Available for 
pre-order soon).

Florian Schneider's highly novel take on a previously neglected aspect 
of the internet in China-its role in constructing and projecting 
national identity: China's Digital Nationalism. (Available for pre-order 
soon).

I'd also like to take this opportunity to issue a call for book 
proposals in the area of news and journalism. If you're working on an 
authored book (not an edited collection) in this area, drop me a line.
