- This book (220pp), the outcome of a three-year AHRC-funded project exploring creative citizenship (2012-2015), is the first detailed examination of hyperlocal journalism: a form of alternative community journalism that sits outside of the mainstream. It draws together a wide range of extended primary research material: a content analysis of 1,941 articles, a survey of 183 journalists, semi-structured interviews with a further 34 journalists, and three detailed case studies. Harte was responsible for authorship of the introduction, chapter one (theoretical framing), chapters five, six, seven (on hyperlocal journalism practice, case studies and economic sustainability, respectively) and the conclusion.
