Data activism and social change[electronic resource] /by Miren Gutierrez. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2018. - xix, 178 p. :ill., digital ;22 cm. - Palgrave studies in communication for social change. - Palgrave studies in communication for social change..

Chapter 1: Mapping a Better World, a Journey -- Chapter 2: The Many Faces of the Data Infrastructure -- Chapter 3: Proactive Data Activism -- Chapter 4: Crowdsourcing and Mapping Data for Humanitarianism -- Chapter 5: Conclusions and Areas for Further Research.

This book efficiently contributes to our understanding of the interplay between data, technology and communicative practice on the one hand, and democratic participation on the other. It addresses the emergence of proactive data activism, a new sociotechnical phenomenon in the field of action that arises as a reaction to massive datafication, and makes affirmative use of data for advocacy and social change. By blending empirical observation and in-depth qualitative interviews, Gutierrez brings to the fore a debate about the social uses of the data infrastructure and examines precisely how people employ it, in combination with other technologies, to collaborate and act for social change.
