| Summary / Zusammenfassung | This crossnational project investigates the diffusion and significance of media and information technologies among young people aged 6-17 years old living in 12 European countries - Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Israel, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. The project has brought together multidisciplinary teams to develop a common conceptual and methodological framework with which to explore cultural variations in media use. This framework stresses the importance of, first, contextualizing new media in relation to both pre-existing media practices and the broader contexts of young people's lives; second, of drawing on and contributing to the integration of childhood, youth and media studies; and third, of theorizing contexts of media use in relation to processes of modernization. Thus we link young people's media uses to the shifting boundary between public and private, the changing relation between social determination and individualization of the life world, and processes of globalization and consumerism. The project is coordinated by the Media Research Group at the London School of Economics. The Swiss contribution ist coordinated by the IPMZ at the University of Zurich. | ||||||
