This symposium gathers together leading scholars working on a critical and salient theme in communication studies--namely, social media and citizenship. We are interested in work that deals with a broad range of related questions. How are social media changing the nature of participation, debate, and political protest? How do the affordances of social media platforms affect engagement and interaction? How are identities, and senses of belonging and citizenship, shaped by social media? How are social media changing the nature of political journalism? These as critical questions in the field.
