Wissenskluft und Digital Divide

Authors:
Publisher:
 2026

Summary

The second, comprehensively updated and expanded edition offers an introduction to the fundamentals, methods and social contexts of knowledge gap and digital divide research. These approaches are based on growing inequalities resulting from the spread of (digital) media, especially in the age of algorithmic decision-making systems and AI. From the thesis of the growing knowledge gap that emerged in the 1970s to the beginning of digital divide research in the 1990s to the current analysis of digital inequalities, the development history of the approach is outlined based on relevant research results. The volume is aimed at students and teachers of communication and social sciences.
