From the Communication and Information Technologies Section of the American Sociological Association, this volume contains nine studies of digital citizenship, focusing on political engagement, participation networks, and content production. Communications, sociology, and other researchers from North America, Israel, and France address relationships between new media and political efficacy, YouTube and young voters, and political interest and online news; participation in social, scholarly, familial, and support networks; and unequal production in terms of gendered digital production inequalities and the various responses of microbloggers to different kinds of media events and issues.
