This open access book considers the stories of adolescents and young adults from different regions of the world who use digital media as instruments and stages for storytelling, or who make the media the subject of story telling. These narratives discuss interconnectedness, self-staging, and managing boundaries. From the perspective of media and cultural research, they can be read as responses to the challenges of contemporary society. Providing empirical evidence and thought-provoking explanations, this book will be useful to students and scholars who wish to uncover how ongoing processes of cultural transformation are reflected in the thoughts and feelings of the internet generation. 

Christina Schachtner is Professor of Media and Communications at the University of Klagenfurt, Austria. Her research focuses on network communication, virtual publics, social movements in the age of the internet, and digital media and psychoanalysis.
