Globalization, individualization, and most specifically Mediatization, are all meta processes that can be observed in everyday life today. These meta-processes are sometimes not very simple to research or observe, due to their ongoing and intertwining practices. Nevertheless, online communities, which are the manifestations of digital cultures (also known as the routines, habits and languages people form around various mediums, media and other pop-culture artifacts) can serve as concrete, empirical example of these meta-processes. In these online communities, scientists are able to observe specific changes, practices and behaviors that indicate processes such as globalization, mediatization or individualization. In this seminar, students will investigate their own online community of interest, conducting case studies of a digital culture and attempting to observe the ongoing processes of mediatization, globalization, commercialization, etc.through observing specific practices in their communities of choice.
