Abstract

This chapter discusses the concept of cultural policy in relation to digital media, digital communication and digital culture. It sets out to account for the different definitions and roles that traditionally have been ascribed to cultural policy and for some of the challenges when “the digital” enters these conceptual and definitional frameworks. When cultural policy is framed on the premises of digital media and digital communications, the notion of participation and online participatory cultures is prominent. The chapter, therefore, engages in discussion on the cultural policies of participation, and how digital platforms such as Instagram, Facebook and Spotify facilitate and condition participative patterns and agency of citizens.
