https://newmodels.substack.com Situated amid political
communication theory, social media information economics, and the
vanguard of social science methodology, Kevin Munger (Assistant
Professor of Political Science and Social Data Analytics at Penn
State University) visits NM to share his post-2010s framework for
understanding the future of networked culture.
 Kevin is the author
of Generation Gap: Why the Baby Boomers Still Dominate American
Politics and Culture (Columbia U. Press, 2022). And on this new ep,
he discusses media technology’s role in the migration of big
organizing concepts such as conservative, liberal, autonomy, and
progress; as well as how technological change, which is inevitable,
impacts the very foundations of literate/liberal culture.
