Title: chapter 7 The Politics of Women’s Digital Archives and Its Significance for the History of Journalism
Description: "This book showcases various ways in which digital archives allow for new approaches to
journalism history. The chapters in this book were selected based on three overall objectives:
1) research that highlights specific concerns within journalism history through digital
archives; 2) discussions
of digital methodologies, as well as specific applications, that are
accessible for journalism scholars with no prior experiences with such approaches; and
3) that journalism history and digital archives are connected in other ways than through
specific methods, i.e., that the connection raises larger questions of historiography and
power.
The contributions address cases and developments in Asia, South and North America
and Europe; and range from long-range, big-data, machine-leaning and topic modelling
studies of journalistic characteristics and meta-journalistic discourses to critiques of
archival
practices and access in relation to gender, social movements and poverty.
The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of Digital Journalism."
