Information, Communication & Society (ICS)

Drawing together leading work upon the social, political, economic, and cultural impact of evolving information and communication technologies (ICTs), this journal positions itself at the centre of contemporary debates about the information age. Information, Communication & Society (iCS) transcends cultural and geographical boundaries as it explores a diverse range of issues relating to the development and application of these technologies, asking such questions as: How are existing and developing forms of communication combining individual, social and machine inputs and what are the consequences of their intersections for culture, politics, the economy or society? What direction will these forms take? As ICT usage is scaling rapidly and widely, underlying technologies operate predominately under a logic of segmentation and specialisation for the advancement of commercial aims. How might this development affect conceptions of identity, belonging, culture or society? How are ICTs, and processes in which they are implicated such as the automation of routine tasks, affecting daily life and social structures such as the family, friendships, work and organization, commerce and business, education, health care, and leisure activities? To what extent are ICTs enabling an age of electronic surveillance and social control? What are the implications for citizen privacy, social equity, public expression, economic and political participation or policing criminal activity? What are the consequences of using ICTs for material objects, spaces, and entities with which people interact and on which they rely?
