Aims & Scope

 

The Journal of Digital Media & Policy (formerly known as International Journal of Digital Television) aims to analyse and explain the sociocultural, political, economic and technological questions surrounding digital media and address the policy issues facing regulators globally. This double-blind-peer-reviewed journal brings together and shares the work of academics, policy-makers and practitioners, offering lessons from one another’s experience. Content is broad and varied, ranging from a mixture of critical work on  technology, industry and regulatory convergence, to the emerging wider socio-cultural and political questions such as the application of online networks, the rise of cloud computing and the Internet of Things. We intend to examine critically emerging wider questions such as the role of ‘digital citizens’, the regulatory environment for the new platform industry and the role of state regulation in an increasingly global media industry.
