Part of the book series: Global Transformations in Media and 
Communication Research - A Palgrave and IAMCR Series (GTMCR)

This book explores the ways in which adolescents in Nigeria domesticate 
technology and the role of digital gatekeepers such as parents, 
guardians, and teachers in their digital lifeworlds. Using a 
child-centred framework, what emerges is a rounded and textured analysis 
of how technology fits into pivotal aspects of the lives of teenagers. 
Here, teens are understood as ‘actors’ rather than just users of media 
and technology. The digital lifeworlds of young people in advanced 
economies of the Minority World are well-researched. In contrast, 
research focusing on pre-teens’ and teenagers’ digital practices and 
participation in Majority World such as Africa, is still fundamentally 
narrow. The book is relevant to fields like sociology, media studies, 
youth studies, mobile media studies, African studies, and global media 
studies.
