Yet the story of global media is not one of seamless connection or cultural homogenization. \u003ci\u003ePlanet Digital\u003c\/i\u003e challenges the myth of a \"global village,\" revealing instead how regional histories, infrastructures, economies, and power relations shape the uneven terrains of our digital world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEdited by the series editors of \u003ci\u003eCritical Cultural Communication\u003c\/i\u003e, this field-defining anthology gathers leading scholars to examine the texts, genres, platforms, and industries that define today's global entertainment landscape. From TikTok to \u003ci\u003eSquid Game\u003c\/i\u003e, K-Pop to Marvel, \u003ci\u003eBluey\u003c\/i\u003e to Nollywood, each chapter offers a focused case study that illuminates how digital media both reflect and remake global cultural life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSpanning influencer culture, streaming platforms, esports, and beyond, \u003ci\u003ePlanet Digital\u003c\/i\u003e shows how digital technologies and global media flows continually reshape one another, producing hybrid forms of creativity, circulation, and control.
