MedieKultur: Journal of media and communication research

Since early 2020, global society has been swept by the effects of Covid-19 itself, but certainly also by numerous side effects to the efforts that have been made to suppress contagion. Closures of schools and workplaces have led to practices of remote work and education, and routines of everyday life have become subject to several new limitations and moral decisions. The role of digital media in society has been foregrounded through this process, and with this special issue of MedieKultur we wish to explore how this process has led to new discoveries, experiences, potentials, decisions, and shortcomings.
