Review "An excellent contribution to the growing literature on alternative forms of political participation, at a time when too many see young people especially as apathetic and uninvolved."--David Marsh, University of Canberra, Australia"In contrasting traditional with new, everyday forms of digital participation, this book engagingly raises challenging questions about whose experiences and identities are included, and also who is increasingly excluded or disengaging from both new and old politics."--Ariadne Vromen, University of Sydney, Australia"This is a very important book which both reminds us of ways of thinking about politics that have been submerged in recent decades and urges us to think more imaginatively about new ways of being political. Anyone interested in the revitalization of democratic politics should read this book."--Stephen Coleman, University of Leeds, UK Long Description In what ways is the meaning and practice of politics changing?
