[Commlist] Call for chapters. Digital Inequalities in Multicultural Contexts: A Global Perspective

The co-editors are glad to announce CFP to the new book /Digital 
Inequalities in Multicultural Contexts: A Global Perspective/ edited by 
Elena Vartanova (Lomonosov Moscow State University), Anna Gladkova 
(Lomonosov Moscow State University) and Shi-xu (Hangzhou Normal University).

The book will be submitted to Routledge, and if everything goes well 
will be published as part of the Cultural Discourse Studies Series:
https://www.routledge.com/Cultural-Discourse-Studies-Series/book-series/CDSS

The book will discuss digital inequalities minor ethnic and cultural 
groups across the world face today – in regard to access, skills, and 
benefits from using ICTs, i. e. three levels of the digital divide that 
have been previously identified by scholars. Using specific case studies 
from different multicultural societies around the world, we will show 
how these inequalities affect cross-cultural communication from a 
cultural discourse studies perspective, as well as what impact digital 
divide can have upon people’s identities, languages and cultures.

We will show in this book that regardless of national specifics and 
current peculiarities of communication systems, there are challenges all 
multicultural/multi-ethnic societies are facing nowadays under ongoing 
digitalization process. The primary aim of the book therefore is to show 
how multicultural societies across the globe are developing under the 
challenges brought by digitalization (digital exclusion, new forms, 
levels and domains of the digital divide, new professional and personal 
demands in terms of digital engagement, etc.), and how multicultural 
discourses are developing in this new context.

If you are interesting in proposing a chapter to the book, please send 
us a short abstract (500-750 words) before May 10th.
