The book is based on five years of participatory research with intersectional media activist projects. Mapping out the rich and varied textures of the political economy of media activist projects from small to large and from simple to complex, the book considers structures, funding models, media labour, and intersectional power, foregrounding the voices of global media activists. It reflects on the changes wrought by shifts to digital media ecologies and economies in the contemporary alternative new media space.
This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of Politics and Communication Studies interested in the political economy of media, social movements, digital media, alternative media, radical media, critical media, and alternative journalism. It will also appeal to media activists and journalists, providing a roadmap for crucial considerations when developing organizational structures in new independent media projects.
