Global Media and Digital Cultures (Online) SOAS University of London

Overview

The Global Media and Digital Cultures (Online) course from SOAS University of London  tackles urgent debates about digital power, participation, and inequality in contemporary societies. Blending critical theory with grounded, interdisciplinary research, it challenges both utopian and dystopian narratives of digital transformation. 

You will explore how power and resistance operate in an increasingly mediated world, examining exclusion, marginalisation, and grassroots empowerment. Graduates leave with advanced critical and research skills to interrogate one of the defining forces of our time.
