Andrew Chadwick explores how the internet and digital media are implicated in social and political power in four broad areas: political mobilisation, political engagement, deception and dis/misinformation, and news and journalism. He invented the concepts of the “ ” and “ ” that blend older and newer media logics and introduced these into social science research, where they have become influential in a wide range of fields including political communication, communication and media theory, social movement studies, social media analysis, public opinion research, journalism studies, algorithm studies, party and election campaign research, social theory, dis-/misinformation research, media audience/reception studies, and analyses of populism.

Andrew’s work takes a broadly interdisciplinary, sociotechnical, and social scientific approach inspired by key concepts and methods from communication, political science, sociology, psychology, and science and technology studies.
Recently his work has turned to consider how social and technological forces have converged in ways that produce norms of distrust, enmity, dis/misinformation, and vulnerability in key areas of social and political life, and how a deeper, relational understanding of people’s everyday norms in relation to digital media technologies should inform the important ethical and regulatory questions we face in the near future.
