Play, Mediatization, Online Communities, Children, ChildhoodAbstract
In contemporary society, there seems to be a conception that children’s play has dramatically changed or that it has been deployed by the massive influence of digital media and technology. Yet, within a framework of mediatization and practice theory, and based on extensive ethnographies in everyday contexts of children, different narratives, genres and communicative patterns occur. In this article, the author draws a broader picture of the current state of play in the lives of children and young people, pointing to relevant dilemmas and nuances in the field.
