My book series is looking to publish a number of new titles. The books <br>
are published as affordable paperbacks and in digital versions open <br>
access. Publishing is free of charge to authors. The digital versions <br>
are free of charge to readers.<br>
<br>
An overview of titles published thus far is available here:<br>

<br>
There is a preference for the submission of proposals for books whose <br>
writing can be finished and that can be submitted to UWP within the next <br>
6-15 months. Any prior queries may be sent by e-mail to Andrew Lockett <br>
(University of Westminster Press Manager) A.Lockett [A//T//] <br>
<a href="http://westminster.ac.uk" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">westminster.ac.uk</a>. Submissions will no longer be accepted by email. All <br>
proposals for consideration have to be presented via <a href="https://uwp.rua.re" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://uwp.rua.re</a>.<br>
<br>
The open access book series “Critical Digital and Social Media Studies” <br>
publishes books that critically study the role of the Internet, digital <br>
and social media in society and make critical interventions. Titles <br>
analyse how power structures, digital capitalism, ideology and social <br>
struggles shape and are shaped by digital and social media. They use and <br>
develop critical theory discussing the political relevance and <br>
implications of studied topics. The series is a theoretical forum for <br>
Internet and social media research for books using methods and theories <br>
that challenge digital positivism. It also seeks to explore digital <br>
media ethics grounded in critical social theories and philosophy. The <br>
book series’ understanding of critical theory and critique is grounded <br>
in approaches such as critical political economy and Frankfurt School <br>
critical theory.<br>
