| The theme of the 11th Child and Teen Consumption Conference is Playing with Borders. The borders and boundaries of young people’s cultural worlds are messy and in flux, especially in the spaces of consumer culture, digital culture and media culture. From the borders between the analog and the digital, the authentic and the branded, the global and the local, play and labour to, food and fun, young people contest, resist, negotiate, push and play with the boundaries in the between. We invite research and approaches that interrogate the concepts and definition of children’s and teen’s “play”, and how young people themselves “play” in mediated and digitized spaces. |
