Communication for Social Change: Context, Social Movements and the Digital

By Pradip Ninan Thomas

Book Overview

Communication for Social Change: Context, Social Movements and the Digital is a critical introduction to communication and social change (CSC) theory. The book presents refreshingly new perspectives and specifically makes the case for CSC theory to factor in context, learnings from social movements and a critique of the digital technology. This book offers perspectives on the historical continuities within this field of study along with the departures that have been hastened and shaped by confluences between ideas and practice as well as by digital technology and social movements. It introduces readers to a raft of new theorists of CSC and puts forth new thinking, new ideas, and a new basis for theorisation of communication for social change discourse.
