Media and participation signals the merging of ideas around democracy, power and politics, and producers, audiences and publics. Media and participation includes a broad understanding of our involvement, engagement and interaction with politics and civic cultures. Media and participation also considers the individual, audience and public as an agent of change, engaged in dynamic practices. This range of ideas across the public and popular makes this topic a rich site for analysis. To understand media and participation today involves historical, social, political and cultural perspectives on such issues as live events, social networking, political communication, museums and galleries, sports, talkshows and reality TV.
