Digital Citizenship in a Datafied Society

by Arne Hintz, Karin Wahl-Jorgensen, Lina Dencik

Book Overview

Digitization has transformed the way we interact with our social, political and economic environments. While it has enhanced the potential for citizen agency, it has also enabled the collection and analysis of unprecedented amounts of personal data. This requires us to fundamentally rethink our understanding of digital citizenship, based on an awareness of the ways in which citizens are increasingly monitored, categorized, sorted and profiled.
