#ge2015 - Researching digital politics

Carl Miller

Digital electioneering exploding during the general election and social media rose to become a key new political battleground. Carl will talk about how Demos tried to understand what it meant for politics, and the new challenges - methodological and technological - for researchers' trying to understand the digital world.

Carl Miller is the Research Director of the Centre for the Analysis of Social Media at Demos.
It is the first British think tank unit dedicated to researching and understanding the digital world. He develops new ways of understanding social media as a new part of social and political life. He wrote a weekly column on digital politics for The Sunday Times and is a social media commentator for Sky. He is a Visiting Research Fellow at King’s College, London.
