The starting point is the thesis that the Internet is both heritage and future: postmodern spaces of freedom and neoliberal fixations of the electronic age unfold in the ubiquitous cultural space that digital media span. At the same time, the Internet restructures social spaces in the 'analog world', digitalizes self\/world relations or forms digital cultures, which in turn form ourselves. For dealing with the ambivalence of the Internet between postmodern diversity and neoliberal subjectification, an understanding of media education based on educational theory is proposed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book is a translation of the original German 1st edition \u003ci\u003eKulturen des Digitalen\u003c\/i\u003e by David Kergel, published by Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden GmbH, part of Springer Nature in 2018. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation. Springer Nature works continuously to further the development of tools for the production of books and on the related technologies to support the authors.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe Content\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003ePostmodern Cyberspace\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe SNS universe of the control society\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe university in the digital age as a site of postmodern media education\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe target groups\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eLecturers and students of cultural, social and educational sciences, media education with a focus on media and educational theory\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMedia educators and media pedagogues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDr. David Kergel is Professor for Social Work at the International University of Applied Sciences, Duisburg, Germany.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45274367721623,"sku":"9783658352493","price":6610.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9783658352493.webp?v=1769279713","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/digital-cultures-postmodern-media-education-subversive-diversity-and-neoliberal-subjectivation-9783658352493","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
