About the Book

Digital Dialogue and Community 2.0: After avatars, trolls and puppets explores the communities that use digital platforms, portals, and applications from daily life to build relationships beyond geographical locality and family links. The book provides detailed analyses of how technology realigns the boundaries between connection, consciousness and community. This book reveals that alongside every engaged, nurturing and supportive group are those who are excluded, marginalised, ridiculed, or forgotten. It explores the argument that community is not an inevitable result of communication. Following an introduction from the Editor, the book is then divided into four sections exploring communities and resistance, structures of sharing, professional communication and fandom and consumption. Digital Dialogues and Community 2.0 combines ethnographic methods and professional expertise to open new spaces for thinking about language, identity, and social connections.

About the Author :
Tara Brabazon is Professor of Creative Media and Head of Photography and Creative Media at the University of Bolton, UK. Having written eleven books and over 150 academic articles and chapters, she is best known for Digital Hemlock and The University of Google. Tara remains interested in the sparks and innovations that emerge when digitization encounters popular culture. A multi-awarded teacher, her research operates in the space between the evangelical optimism of the online environment and the dystopic depression of cyberbullying and credit card fraud. For Digital Dialogues and Community 2.0, she has assembled a group of innovative scholars who temper their online lives and scholarship with the difficult questions of injustice, inequality, fragmentation and ambiguity that cannot be captured within the phrase digital divide. Contributors include: Vanessa Paech; Aziz Douai; Mike Kent; Mick Winter; Amanda Evans; Faracy Grouse; Katie Ellis; Nazlin Bhimani; Matthew Ingram; Laura Kinsella; Alex Cameron; and Leanne McRae.
