Given the interdisciplinary nature of digital journalism studies and
the increasingly blurred boundaries of journalism, there is a need
within the field of journalism studies to widen the scope of
theoretical perspectives and approaches. Theories of Journalism in a
Digital Age discusses new avenues in theorising journalism, and
reassesses established theories. Contributors to this volume describe
fresh concepts such as de-differentiation, circulation, news networks,
and spatiality to explain journalism in a digital age, and provide
concepts which further theorise technology as a fundamental part of
journalism, such as actants and materiality. Several chapters discuss
the latitude of user positions in the digitalised domain of
journalism, exploring maximal–minimal participation,
routines–interpretation–agency, and
mobility–cross-mediality–participation. Finally, the book provides
theoretical tools with which to understand, in different social and
cultural contexts, the evolving practices of journalism, including
innovation, dispersed gatekeeping, and mediatized interdependency. The
chapters in this book were originally published in special issues of
Digital Journalism and Journalism Practice.
