The book deals with precarity within the digital age and focuses on media change and social
insecurity. Change arising from digital developments takes place on micro- meso- and
meta-levels and have always social implications. Concepts such as Social Media eHealth and
Digital Capitalism Informational Capitalism and Social Exclusion Digital Globalization and
Motility frame the social dynamics and implications of changes in digital media. These changes
evoke a double precarity or stable unstability: Social practices throughout the diverse
societal fields are questioned through the media change which leads to a digital age. The
ongoing media change requires new social practices - what evokes precarity as an ongoing
insecurity how to face the `new digital world´.As a socio-economic phenomenon and effect of
neoliberal policy precarity changes life planning and self-narrations of the affected
individuals. Precarity and neoliberal subjection-processes manifest in the digital age and are
performatively re-produced by the way new media are used.
