This book explores the most recent developments regarding youth and media in a global perspective. With interdisciplinary contributions from international experts, this collection shows that the differentiation between an offline world and an online world is inapplicable to the lives of most young people. It examines which new anthropological, and cultural-historical conditions and changes arise in connection with the widespread presence of digital media in the lives of the networked teens. The volume demonstrates the pedagogic potential of digital media to achieve inclusive and quality education for all. However it also analyses the digital productions and virtual communication of young people in the context of economic crisis, showing the great political potential of digital culture. This collection also represents an innovative contribution to virtual research methods, introducing research carried out using methods which traverse the boundaries between youth life online and youth life offline, so as to examine how digital and mobile technologies mediate young people's communication with each other and with the world.
