Doktorgradsprosjekt/Ph D project

Globalization, Media and Youth culture: Young high school students in Vennesla, Norway, between the local and global. 

The research project was to examine the communication pattern of young students in Vennesla, Norway, and how they communicated locally and globally, and what the communication was all about.

Among the findings was a great difference between the extensive use of all available technology but the limitations of the global part of the communication.
