Nasl-i Dījītāl: Persiska (Farsi) 1401

Our hypermedia society would have killed childhood. Faced with the omnipresence of the Internet, video games and television, it would no longer be possible to build oneself normally, to cultivate one's own universe and its secret gardens. From now on, from birth, the child would be exposed, without filters or controls, to the violence and consumerism of our society. The boundary between adults and children would no longer exist. Translated for the first time into French, this work constitutes the finest and most documented investigation into the relationship between childhood and the media. David Buckingham highlights the challenges to face in confronting the proliferation of new technologies, the privatization of the media and public space. For him, it is no longer time to seek to exclude children from the adult world, but to design new rules to protect them and strengthen their rights as young citizens and consumers. The fruit of numerous investigations, this work revisits, freshly again, without optimism or nostalgia, a crucial problem for the future of our societies.
