Summary

In contemporary media cultures, media are part of the most important sites where collective

representations and narrations of a post‐migrant civic culture are (re‐)negotiated. At the

same time, they offer powerful resources and instruments for civic participation and collaboration.

Media and Participation in Post‐Migrant Societies addresses an important shortcoming in

the research on participation in media cultures by introducing a special focus on post-migrant

conditions to the discussion – both as conceptual refinements and as empirical studies.

The contributions of this book provide diverse analyses of the conditions, possibilities,

but also constraints for participation and the role of media communication in the reshaping

of civic culture in post‐migrant societies.
