- Double-weighted statement
- This 250-page book is the result of 6 years of fieldwork focusing on how digital communications technologies shape young working-class men’s self-understandings and aspirations in Delhi, India. This output merits double weighting because of the scope and depth of the inquiry into the digitally mediated worlds of these young men. Considerable energy was spent developing long-term relationships, conducting research in often hard to access pockets of the city, developing a method for doing ethical research in online worlds, and finding a way to synthesize findings in a theoretically sophisticated but accessible format.
