Introduction to Postcolonial Publics: Art and Citizen Media

Abstract

In this volume, we will engage in a dialogue with and explore the underpinnings of the shifting relationship of power between citizen activist art, story-telling, and (social) media that produce Europe’s postcolonial publics. Citizen media arguably become a platform for postcolonial intellectuals as the studies pursued in this volume investigate the different ways in which previously excluded social groups regain public voice. We want to understand the different articulations of migrants’, refugees’, and citizens’ struggle against increasingly harsh European politics that allow them to achieve and empower political subjectivity in a mediated and creative space.
