This book rethinks the public, public communication and public action in a globalising and mediated world. It looks at how publics are brought into being and how to develop research agendas into their formation, offering a rich set of methodological resources on which other researchers can draw and foregrounding the need to interrogate the boundaries between theory, research and politics.
