PhD

I’m currently researching a PhD with Royal Holloway, University of London’s New Political Communication Unit supervised by Dr Andrew Chadwick.

I’m interested in understanding how the increasing socialisation of communications by the social web is changing the way the media operate and what impact this has on politics, power, democracy and organisational communications strategy.

Specific areas I’m currently researching include:

• Theories of power
• Assemblage Theory
• Political communication
• Framing theory
• the Social Web and social media
• ‘hybrid media systems’

I’ll be updating this page as the PhD develops as well as blogging more specific iterations of my research.

I’m using Tumblr to collect useful content for my research. You can follow me over here.

More to come…
