Book notes: Dismantling Cultural Borders Through Social Media and Digital Communications: How Networked Communities Compromise Identity

Abstract

countries navigate outside threats? How did the involvement of Nordic actors in interand post-war international institutions such as theUnitedNations andNATO impact the use of communicative strategies in the Nordic countries? In what way did media from other parts of the world contribute to Nordic citizens’ self-understanding?’ (p. 20). The final part, ‘Internationalism and Environmentalism’, consists of five chapters exploring how ‘landscapes, landmarks and machines function to articulate a mediated notion of, for instance, long-lasting social democratic-oriented projects to domestic and foreign publics in different media? How did different actors collaborate on public information campaigns related to cross-border issues like economic growth and environmental challenges? How did Nordic foreign aid organizations convey their work to domestic audiences, and how did this contribute to the image of the Nordic region as internationalist?’ (p. 21). All in all, this is a rich and coherent volume.
