Research Abstract |
I am currently working on the history of communications, and in particular on electronically mediated communications and their theoretical implications for the discipline of history. This involves an examination of theories of language and communication systems of the twentieth century from the perspective of critical theory. I am interested in the ways social communications have changed through the introduction of new technologies and how these may reinforce hegemonic culture or destabilize it. | |
