What does it mean that we can be reached on our mobile phones wherever we are and at all times? What are the cultural consequences if we are informed about âeverything and anything importantâ via television? How are our political, religious and ethnic belongings impacted through being increasingly connected by digital media? And what is the significance of all this for our everyday lives?
Drawing on Heppâs fifteen-year research expertise on media change, this book deals with questions like these in a refreshingly straightforward and readable way. âCultures of mediatizationâ are described as cultures whose main resources are mediated by technical media. Therefore, everyday life in cultures of mediatization is âmouldedâ by the media.
