Theorizing the mediated construction of reality, the authors sketch the new contours of 'a space where order is at stake.' Mandatory reading for everyone who seriously reflects on the implications of contemporary media systems and practices on society." Jos van Dijck, University of Amsterdam, The Netherlands "A profound and illuminating attempt to bring core traditions of social theory into the study of media in the digital age. An excellent and pathbreaking book." Anthony Giddens, member of the House of Lords, former director of the London School of Economics and Political Science "In this wide-ranging, ambitious volume, Couldry and Hepp revisit Berger & Luckmann's classic work on social construction. Their theory of 'deep mediatization' resituates digital media systems and networked "figurations" of communicative action as interdependent, constitutive phenomena in contemporary sociality and social worlds. Mediated Construction is an indispensable contribution to social theory in communication research and media sociology." Leah Lievrouw, University of California, Los Angeles "This is not a book about media, but a book about the world shaped by media. And it is not just about that empirical reality, but about how to understand it. Couldry and Hepp develop insights from phenomenology and integrate these with critical theory in an exciting combination." Craig Calhoun, London School of Economics and Political Science "The Mediated Construction of Reality is simply an important book for sociology and for media and communication studies alike maybe as important as The Social Construction of Reality became half a century ago." Soziopolis "It might seem overly ambitious for communication studies to develop, rather than just draw upon, social theories that may have an enduring cross-disciplinary impact. Yet, as media sociologists Nick Couldry (London School of Economics and Political Science) and Andreas Hepp (University of Bremen) show in The Mediated Construction of Reality, it is time to do just that.... Scholars of interpersonal, organizational, and political communicationor anyone who is concerned about the implications of the digital agewill find insights in this book." Meng Li, Journalism & Mass Communication Quarterly "This book is written by a formidable team.... Couldry and Hepp argue convincingly that big data, artificial intelligence and automation intensify the complexity of the social, and its degrees of interdependence... [They] engage in a Herculean struggle to describe the social meaning of data processing in the human lifeworld, and the book is full of sharp observations. I am really glad they took the trouble to write it." Lars Nyre, New Media & Society "[T]he bookshines with a solid sociological framework, a comprehensive grasp of the relevant literature, and an insightful understanding of the most urgent issues surrounding new media and society. It is simply a must-read for students of the field who seek inspiration for thinking about these issues." Elaine Yuan, Global Media and Communication
