Audience Transformations
The concept of the audience is changing. In the twenty-first century there are novel configurations of user practices and technological capabilities that are altering the way we understand and trust media organizations and representations, how we participate in society, and how we construct our social relations. This book embeds these transformations in a societal, cultural, technological, ideological, economic and historical context, avoiding a naive privileging of technology as the main societal driving force, but also avoiding the media-centric reduction of society to the audiences that are situated within.

Temporal Love
This book deals with personal, social and cultural time perceptions and their impact on love and romantic relationships. By focusing on time orientation and its representation in romantic relationships, this book reveals the latent links between temporality and love.

Identität, Orientierung und Lebenswelt
Privatheit steht im unmittelbaren Zusammenhang mit Identität und Kommunikation – der Band geht diesem Zusammenhang offline im Alltag und besonders im Social Web nach. Dazu wird ein mehrdimensionales handlungstheoretisches Konzept vorgelegt, dessen Nutzen anhand mehrerer empirischer Teilstudien illustriert wird. Dabei zeigen sich unterschiedliche Konzepte von Privatheit und, damit zusammenhängend, differenzierte Handlungsstrategien bei der Selbstpräsentation und Kommunikation auf Social Network Sites. Auch Motive von Nicht-Nutzerinnen werden beleuchtet. Ein Schwerpunkt wird dabei auf die Bedeutung von und den Umgang mit Fotos gelegt. Um tiefergehende Ergebnisse zu erhalten und den Mehrwert einer Mehrebenen-Perspektive aufzuzeigen, wird eine quantitative Fragebogenerhebung mit Leitfaden-Interviews, dem Bewerten und Sortieren von Fotos und einer Inhaltsanalyse kombiniert.
