Since the popularization of Internet technologies in the mid-1990s,
human identity and collective culture has been dramatically shaped by
our continued use of digital communication platforms and engagement with
the digital world. Despite a plethora of scholarship on digital
technology, questions remain regarding how these media impact personal
identity and perceptions of global culture.

'Defining Identity and the Changing Scope of Culture in the Digital Age'
explores a multitude of topics pertaining to self-hood, self-expression,
human interaction, and perceptions of civilization and culture in an age
where technology has become integrated into every facet of our everyday
lives. Highlighting issues of race, ethnicity, and gender in digital
culture, interpersonal and computer-mediated communication, pop culture,
social media, and the digitization of knowledge, this pivotal reference
publication is designed for use by communication scholars,
psychologists, sociologists, and graduate-level students interested in
the fluid and rapidly evolving norms of identity and culture through
digital media.
