Connectivity justice
This theoretical commentary introduces the concept of connectivity justice and discusses how it can be utilized in research on mobile, digitally reliant lives. Connectivity justice reframes questions of mobility and data justice for a post-digital world in which digital connections have become both indispensable and intrusive. The concept extends recent work on digital disconnection by examining the institutional and sociotechnical drivers of con…
Making place for disconnection
This study examines how coworking hospitality is produced in times of digitalization critique. • The study illuminates the socio-material impact of the post-digital condition. • “Post-digital hospitality” and “post-digital urbanism” represent key theoretical contributions. • Coworking spaces are identified as prototypical of the post-digital city. • As touristic sites, coworking spaces play a role in social stratification and gentrification
The touristification of work in the post-digital city
This article introduces a special issue on “The touristification of work in the post-digital city”. It outlines how contemporary cities are being reshaped by two intertwined dynamics: the touristification of work and the rise of post-digital urbanism. As mobile technologies and flexible labor practices enable people to blend work with travel, new forms of “touristified work” emerge, including phenomena like “workation”, digital nomadism, and cowo…
From representation to entanglement
Forty years after its publication, Geography, the Media and Popular Culture (1985) by Burgess and Gold remains a seminal text for media geography scholars. In this reflective essay, we revisit the book's significance through autobiographical reflections and re-readings from the perspectives of geography and media studies. Drawing on our personal encounters with the text and the current discussion of future trends in media geography at the 2025 AA…
The Romantic Workplace
Society and culture are increasingly marked by post-digital developments where the normalization of digital connectivity is challenged both through critical resistance, e.g., digital disconnection practices, and in commercial discourses on, e.g., “digital wellbeing” and “digital detox.” This article seeks to understand such post-digital trends in working life through the lens of romantic ideals. In modern history, the Romantic ethic implied an es…
The coming of the post-digital workplace? A survey of how white-collar workers experience and cope with digital media reliance
The coming of the post-digital workplace? A survey of how white-collar workers experience and cope with digital media reliance. New media technology can both hamper and amplify workers' agency. Much research shows that the ambiguities of digital reliance are accentuated among office workers, especially knowledge workers, who spend most of their working time handling different types of information and data. Thus, in times of constant connectivity,…
The symbolic space of smartphone use
This study presents an exploratory approach to the analysis of social differences in smartphone use. Previous research has predominantly focused on problematic smartphone use and addiction. By contrast, this study turns to the research program of Pierre Bourdieu to forward a sociological study on social differences in how people use their smartphones. Using multiple correspondence analysis of Swedish survey data ( n = 2,401), the study explores t…
From citizen identity to datafied life
Whereas media reliance is one of the classical concepts in media and communication studies, this article argues that deep mediatization imposes a renewed relevance of the term, as well as a need to develop a more nuanced framework for studying its social implications. Traditionally, media reliance was used to explain how people develop a citizen identity. Today, while connective media, datafication and AI have transformed what it means to be reli…
Smartphone morality
Escalating smartphone reliance is a debated issue, especially when it comes to the digital wellbeing of young people. Hence, this article addresses smartphone use as a morally contested activity among young adults. We first analyse the existence of moral dissonance pertaining to one’s own smartphone use – whether one uses the device according to internalised norms or not. Second, we explore moral distancing – to what extent morally problematic sm…
Mapping Geomedia Studies
This article explores the formation of and future avenues for geomedia studies. Drawing on a citation network analysis, we map the development of the interdisciplinary research terrain from its origins and identify central citation clusters. The term “geomedia” has been used in the humanities and social sciences since at least the early 2010s. Subsequently, geomedia studies have been advanced through an interdisciplinary scholarship from human ge…
Working in the comfort zone
Coworking spaces are contradictory places. Typically, they are constructed as connected, domestic-like places for hard work and as recreational, aestheticized destinations for individuals in search of work-life balance and opportunities for partial disconnection. This article contributes an immanent critique of coworking spaces through the overarching notion of “coworking space territoriality”. Our point of departure is the concept of post-digita…
The Uneven Costs of Connection
The COVID-19 pandemic caused what we might think of as a “natural experiment in deep mediatization” as people were more or less forced to alter their lives from one day to the other. This report presents the results from a representative Swedish survey conducted in 2021 that mapped how the COVID-19 pandemic affected people’s usage of media and digital tools. The analysis deploys factor analysis to construct five types of mediatization that took p…
Postdigital Territoriality
People adopt geographical strategies to distance themselves from digital sociality. Rather than merely turning off devices, they engage in a broader, more durable project of disentangling. This effort responds to the homogenizing, standardizing forces of connective media and their coercive entanglements: socially normalized routines of personal media use, hybridizations of human agency with communication technologies, and digitally mediated activ…
I’m here! Conspicuous geomedia practices and the reproduction of social positions on social media
‘Checking in’ at or ‘tagging’ oneself to various places on social media constitute online representations that contribute to the classification, or ‘making’, of places. At the same time, users are also classified based on what they (show that they) do where. In this paper, we deploy Bourdieusian cultural sociology to the realm of place-exposing geomedia practices to understand social reproduction on social media. The study uses multiple correspon…
Rethinking Communication Geographies
Timely and original, Rethinking Communication Geographies explores the human condition under digital capitalism, depicting an environment in which digital logistics have taken centre stage in day-to-day life and culture. The book responds to a pressing need to address questions of human autonomy and security, as well as the social power relations of the platform economy, in a world in which media and space have become increasingly entangled
Guided by data
Logistics is a relatively hidden subject in tourism studies. This theoretical article advances a logistical approach to the study of tourism in the platform economy. It is argued that the platform economy rests on logistical accumulation, which means that human practices are not just predicted but ultimately steered in order to generate profitable digital data streams. At the same time, “smart”, mobile media platforms provide unprecedented logist…
Gentrification and the Right to the Geomedia City
This article introduces the special issue “Gentrification and the right to the geomedia city.” The aim of the special issue is to make up for the lack of research on how gentrification is shaped and underpinned by the normalization of various media platforms that currently define urban life—and what these media mean to the resistance to gentrification. Building on the seven contributions that make up the special issue, this article introduces the…
Disentangling
Beyond the platform
Research on music streaming has so far tended to normalize a view of streaming as an individual activity solely oriented towards the platform. However, as streaming media have become integral to everyday life and a key metaphor for digital society, we should pay attention to how streaming activities are embedded into social power relations. Furthermore, due to the complexity of streaming infrastructures, we should consider the social implications…
The transmedia tourist
This article elaborates the post-tourist de-differentiation thesis in the light of digitalization and the coming of transmedia as the dominant mode of cultural circulation. It is argued that transmedia extends and provides new facets to the de-differentiation of tourism and social life. Based on an overview of previous research, three versions of the ‘transmedia tourist’ are theorized – the ubiquitous transmedia tourist, the decapsulated transmed…
Mediatization from Within
Based on a literature review, this article shows that current mediatization scholarship is characterized by what Pike (1967) refers to as etic accounts. These accounts forward theoretical categories on media-related social change to conclude that our age is characterized by deepened and expanded media reliance. However, such theoretical extrapolation takes place not from, but at the expense of, people’s lived experiences, that is, emic accounts o…
Transmedia Work
In Transmedia Work Karin Fast and Andrae Jansson explore several key questions that frame the study of the social and cultural implications of a digital, connected workforce. How might we understand 'privilege' and 'precariousness' in today's digitalized work market? What does it mean to be a privileged worker under the so-called connectivity imperative? What are the social and cultural forces that normalize the appropriation of new media in, and…
The mutual shaping of geomedia and gentrification
While the ‘media city’ has gained academic attention for over a decade, the role of the media in urban gentrification processes has been an overlooked issue. Due to the rapid expansion of geomedia technologies, for example, app-based social media and location-based services on mobile platforms, there is a growing need to address this area from a critical perspective. The article develops and tries out an analytical framework for studying the mutu…
Media Studies for a Mediatized World
This editorial introduces a thematic issue on “Rethinking Media and Social Space”. By critically rethinking the relationship between media and social space this issue takes initial steps towards ensuring that media studies is appropriate for a mediatized world. Contemporary societies are permeated by media that play important roles in how people maneuver and position themselves in the social world. Yet, analyses of media-related social change too…
Mediatization as a Framework for Social Design
Through the appropriation of new media people can extend their capabilities as autonomous human beings. At the same time, however, mediatization means that new forms of social and technological dependence emerge, accompanied by experiences of frustration, stress, and anxiety. Such experiences can be identified above all within the realm of mediatized work/life – an increasingly blurred social terrain where the prospects of media-enhanced, flexibl…
A sense of tourism
The efficiency and lightness of new media problematize the experiential division between being at home and going away. This article presents an approach for studying these conditions. The dialectic of encapsulation/decapsulation is introduced as a framework for understanding how the liminal (encapsulated) sense of tourism is always haunted by its double (decapsulation). It is also shown that the mediatized threat of decapsulation in itself genera…
Communication Geography
We call for a fundamental restruc turing of research paradigms in geography and media/communication studies to form a bridge between core concerns of the 2 disciplines. This endeavor responds to contemporary historical changes: mediated/mediatized mobility, technological convergence, interactivity, new communication interfaces, and the automation of surveillance. Long-standing concern with a set of issues we call representations, textures, struct…

The Mediatization of Consumption
Although the concepts of ‘media culture’ and ‘consumer culture’ have been commonly used as labels for contemporary society, they have rarely been explicitly compared. Nor have there been any serious attempts to clarify whether, or how, socio-cultural change is fusing them together. In this article it is argued that transitory processes such as culturalization, mediatization and simulation - which may all be compiled within the notion of reflexive…
Spatial Phantasmagoria
It is often argued that media culture involves a state of constant virtual mobility. Thus, it is important to discuss the relationship between media practices and touristic practices — in particular, whether the mediatization of tourism may signify an era of `post-tourism', or the `end of tourism'. In this article media consumption and touristic consumption are regarded as two contexts of spatial appropriation. Distinguishing three principal mode…
The Future Gaze
In this article, we show how the abstract city — media representations of city panoramas and the factual physical silhouette standing in for the city itself in the distance — is constituted as an emotive geography and how the production of such vistas is a political project, whose aim is to activate a future gaze . Through analysing two cities — Montreal in 1967 and contemporary Shanghai — we demonstrate how the mediatized production of urban pan…
Rethinking post-tourism in the age of social media
News Media Consumption in the Transmedia Age
Technological convergence and altered dynamics of content circulation, what is here referred to as “transmedia textures”, change the ways in which news is consumed. This is in regard to both how individuals navigate and orient themselves through representational spaces and flows, and how their media practices amalgamate with other activities in everyday life. The aim of this study is to explore how altered dynamics of amalgamation are related to …
Using Bourdieu in Critical Mediatization Research
This article develops a Bourdieusian approach to mediatization. It is argued that the Bourdieusian theories of doxa and fields can make valuable contributions to a critical perspective on mediatization, one that moves beyond the divides between institutionalist, social-constructivist and materialist understandings (e.g., Bourdieu, 1972/1977). Mediatization is here seen as the historically growing dependence on media technologies and institutions …

Complicit surveillance, interveillance, and the question of cosmopolitanism
The institutional and meta-processual dimensions of surveillance have been scrutinized extensively in literature. In these accounts, the subjective, individual level has often been invoked in relation to subject–object, surveillor–surveilled dualities and in terms of the kinds of subjectivity modern and late-modern institutions engender. The experiential, ontological realm of the “mediatized everyday” vis-a-vis surveillance remains less explored,…
Three tasks for mediatization research
Based on the interdisciplinary experience of a Swedish research committee, this article discusses critical conceptual issues raised by the current debate on mediatization – a concept that holds great potential to constitute a space for synthesized understandings of media-related social transformations. In contrast to other, more metaphorical constructions, mediatization can be studied empirically in systematic ways through various sub-processes t…
Texture
The article outlines the contours of an emerging sub-field within media and cultural studies — communication geography. It is argued that post-industrial society nurtures a regime of hyperspace-biased communication, which generates spatial ambiguities tied to mobility, convergence and interactivity. These ambiguities call for a spatial turn within media studies — a turn which implies a problematization of the space—communication nexus, through wh…
The Negotiated City Image
The article presents an analysis of how consumption contributes to the continuous negotiation between locality, market dynamics and image-creation in a metropolitan area. Approaching consumption in terms of encoding and decoding processes, the aim is to stress both how the city is objectively created and how it is interpreted. Focusing upon the principal distinctions between dominant, oppositional and negotiated modes of consumption, the article …
Mobile elites
This article introduces the Special Issue Mobile Elites: Sojourners, Dwellers and Homecomers, in which five articles look into the hidden frictions and social and emotional costs involved in privileged forms of mobility. Such existentially oriented aspects of globalization are still relatively underresearched. It is argued that cultural studies hold a responsibility to carry out ethnographically oriented analyses of mobile elite groups in order t…
The Hegemony of the Urban/Rural Divide
The urban/rural divide constitutes a socially pervasive lived space, corresponding to what Cresswell calls a moral geography. In modern society, the symbolic association of urbanism, globalism, and mediatization defines the dominant metaphysics of flow, which can be distinguished from the more sedentarist metaphysics of fixity, largely representing rural values and life conditions. This article provides an empirically based account (survey data a…
Re-encoding the Spectacle
This article presents an empirical study of the public re-encoding processes occurring after the spectacular BoOl Housing Fair, the City of Tomorrow, hosted in Malmo, Sweden, in 2001. The fair initiated the reconstruction of a former shipyard and harbour area, creating a new post-industrial district. Due to economic and political scandals, however, the image of the new neighbourhood was seriously wounded. The fair was turned into a symbol of the …

How to become an ‘elite cosmopolitan’
This article provides a Bourdieusian analysis of the mediatized lifeworlds of so-called elite cosmopolitans. Based on interviews with Nordic expatriates employed by United Nations organizations in Geneva, the study looks at how the increasing dependence on new media influences the field of United Nations organizations and the trajectories of cosmopolitan subjects. Theoretically, the analysis builds on two key concepts: communicational doxa, which…
Emotions, power and space in the discourse of ‘People of the Real World’
The article investigates the discursive trope of ‘People of the Real World’ (PRW) as it was launched by the leader of the Swedish Christian Democrats, Göran Hägglund, during a political campaign week on the Island of Gotland in 2009. Sociological and cultural theories of local vs. cosmopolitan identity, of emotions, and of space, are used to analyse the speech and a selection of newspaper articles from 2009. The PRW discourse defends local, seden…

Encapsulations
This article outlines how the visual and spatial structure of Montreal's Expo 67, its texture, encapsulated a “future gaze” and how this encapsulation project was related to the overarching transformations of Montreal. Expo 67 was a sight, an experience-scape, and a mediator of Montreal as a future world metropolis. The article discusses how different “means of encapsulation,” such as transit systems, multiscreen cinema, and surveillance systems,…

Beyond “Other Spaces
This article introduces the themed issue on “Communication and Space.” Beginning with Michel Foucault's concept of heterotopia and Ulrich Beck's theory of cosmopolitan society the article discusses the analytical potential of a spatial approach within media and communication studies. Through the spatial approach, which regards communication as a multidimensional process of spatial production, media and communication studies are better equipped to…

Mediatization, Spatial Coherence and Social Sustainability
What does the implementation of new communication networks mean for the spatial coherence and social sustainability of rural communities? This paper takes its key from Wittel's discussion of network sociality, understood as the opposite of Gemeinschaft. Wittel's argument may inform our understanding of how communicative patterns in rural communities are partly reembedded through ongoing media transitions. But it must also be problematized. Relati…
Cultural citizenship and the communicative space of mediated sexual expressivity
The role of pornography in contemporary media societies constitutes one of the under-researched areas in media and communication studies. The purpose of this article is to explore the potentiality latent in the user-porn-related Internet domains, blogs and forums – as extensions of offline agency and sociality – for motivating communicative action and engagement with civic practice in various forms. In this study, we utilize an interdisciplinary …
A second birth? Cosmopolitan media ethnography and Bourdieu’s reflexive sociology
What does it take to carry out media ethnography in times and spaces of cosmopolitanization? How can ethnography reach beyond nationally or otherwise territorially bounded theories and methodologies, towards a new set of cosmopolitan approaches that manage to account for globalized logics of symbolic power? This article explores whether and how cosmopolitan media ethnography could be built around the epistemology of Bourdieu’s reflexive sociology…

Perceptions of surveillance
Even though the field of surveillance studies has expanded during the last decade, there is still a need for studies that empirically explain and contextualize people’s perceptions of the increasingly mediatized ‘surveillance society’. This article provides a ‘middle range’ social theorization, following Giddens, as well as an updated empirical account, based on a nationwide Swedish survey, of how various forms of surveillance are perceived as so…

Social media
With the current saturation of digital devices in contemporary society, the boundaries between humans and machines have become increasingly blurred. This digitalization of everyday life both obscures and reminds us of the fact that identity, agency and power cannot be attributed to the individual or the machine alone: rather, they are the outcome of interactions and negotiations within a network of actors. Social media, such as Facebook, blogs, T…

Interveillance
The everyday uses of networked media technologies, especially social media, have revolutionized the classical model of top-down surveillance. This article sketches the contours of an emerging culture of interveillance where non-hierarchical and non-systematic monitoring practices are part of everyday life. It also introduces a critical perspective on how the industrial logics of dominant social media, through which interveillance practices are no…
