[Air-L] Latour/ANT on social media?

Dear Evelina.


I would definitely recommend José Van Dijck's book The Culture of Connectivity from 2013, which draws on Latour in combination with Castells to analyse social network sites.


I can also point to my own work on this issue:

Schou, J. & Farkas, J. (2016). Algorithms, Interfaces, and the Circulation of Information: Interrogating the Epistemological Challenges of Facebook. KOME − An International Journal of Pure Communication Inquiry, 4(1), p. 36-49. https://doi.org/10.17646/KOME.2016.13


Hope this can be helpful.


Sincerely,
- Johan Farkas

Evelina,

You might check out Liza Potts' Social Media in Disaster Response. She uses
Latourean ANT to analyze social media responses to 3 different disaster
cases.
http://attw.org/publications/book-series/social-media-disaster-response I've
taught it several times at the graduate level, and students respond really
well to it, in part because the treatment of ANT is so accessible.
