Hello! A reminder about our event coming up at the end of this month: We are thrilled to invite you to the first Content Creator Scholars Network (CCSN) event for 2026, a roundtable discussion about the new book Global South Creator Cultures (Routledge, 2026). We'll be joined by editors Tugce Bidav and Smith Mehta, as well as several of the contributing authors, to talk about creators cultures and economies around the world. When: Monday 30th March, 8am EST/1pm BST/11pm AEDT Where: on zoom Book a (free) ticket HERE: https://tinyurl.com/4mun5a73 ABOUT THE BOOK Global South Creator Cultures situates creator labour within the geographic specificities of nation-states and examines the working conditions of social media creators and the geographical challenges of their work, offering a four-part conceptual framework for studying creator cultures. Rather than placing creator cultures in the Global South against those in the Global North to produce a series of binaries, it prioritises expanding our frames of reference for studying creator labour. It does so by examining creator cultures in India, Turkey, Brazil, Chile, Pakistan, Nigeria, Hong Kong, and China through approaches from media, communication, and cultural studies, as well as internet, platform, and creator studies. Rich with grounded subjective experiences of Global South creators, this collection is essential reading for students and academics of media, communication, and cultural studies, and appeals to anyone interested in understanding the complex relationship between nation-states, social media platforms, and creators. Looking forward to seeing some of you there!
