It explores how varieties of activism are mediated through communication technologies, how activists deploy strategies for changing the structures of media systems, and how governments and corporations seek to police media activism. From memes to zines, hacktivism to artivism, this volume considers activist practices involving both older kinds of media and newer digital, social, and network-based forms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMedia Activism in the Digital Age provides a useful cross-section of this growing field for both students and researchers. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVictor Pickard\u003c\/strong\u003e is an Associate Professor at the University of Pennsylvania's Annenberg School for Communication.
