Abstract

One of the most prolific and respected scholars today, Manuel Castells has given us a new language for understanding the impact of information and communication technologies on social life. Politicians can no longer run for office without a digital media strategy, new communication technologies are a fundamental infrastructure for the economy, and the internet has become an invaluable tool for cultural production and consumption. Yet as more of our political, economic, and cultural interaction occurs over digital media, the ability to create and manipulate both content and networks becomes real power. Castells and the Media introduces a great thinker, presents original theories about the network society, and encourages readers to use these theories to help them understand the importance of digital media and social networks in their own lives.-- Publisher description.

Abstract

Manuel Castells revient dans ces entretiens sur les éléments marquants de sa vie de chercheur. Il brosse un portrait sans complaisance du milieu académique et détaille sa méthodologie (en relevant ses succès et ses errements). Le dialogue entretenu par Géraldine Pflieger permet d'aprécier l'approche d'une société en mutation, confrontée à la montée des contradictions entre espace des lieux et espaces des flux, globalisation et revendications identitaires.
