economic and educational background. The concept of a media culture has evolved
owing to the increased volume, variety and importance of mediated signs and messages and the interplay of interlaced meanings. In the world of young people, the
media are saturated by popular culture and penetrate politics, the economy, leisure
time and education. At present, the global media culture is a pedagogic force that has
the potential to exceed the achievements of institutionalized forms of education. As
Henry Giroux puts it:
“With the rise of new media technologies and the global reach of the
highly concentrated culture industries, the scope and impact of the
educational force of culture in shaping and refiguring all aspects of
daily life appear unprecedented. Yet the current debates have generally ignored the powerful pedagogical influence of popular culture,
along with the implications it has for shaping curricula, questioning
notions of high-status knowledge, and redefining the relationship
between the culture of schooling and the cultures of everyday life.”

dominant cultural logic with regard to ICT is outlined, and different
forms of the digital divide are presented. Some global aspects of ICT
use among youth are reviewed, using both primary and secondary
sources. New forms of youth socialization brought about by the
emergence of ICT are examined, and the chapter concludes with a
set of recommendations.
