500 _aCommunication for Social Change book that offers refreshingly new perspectives on communication and social change theory. Communication for Social Change: Context, Social Movements, and the Digital is a critical introduction to communication for social change (CSC) theory. The book presents refreshingly new perspectives and makes a case for CSC theory explicitly to factor in context, leanings from social movements, and a critique of the digital technology. This book offers perspectives on the historical continuities within this field of study along with the departures that have been hastened and shaped by confluences between ideas and practice as well as by digital technology and social movements. It introduces readers to a raft of new theorists of CSC and puts forth new thinking, new ideas, and a new basis for the theorization of communication for social change.
