Thrilled to see this special issue published!

Thanks to editors Zhu & Bozdag for an excellent line-up of scholars and @cogitatiomac.bsky.social for its professionalism.

Our contribution critically examines discourses of “disconnective media", products designed to disconnect from digital devices.

In a hyper-connected world, are we truly free to disconnect?

Our new open access issue explores the complexities of disconnection, showing how it can be both a voluntary act and a forced response to systemic problems.
