We are delighted that the positive reception of the first edition of the Handbook of Digital Politics has prompted the publication of this second edition. While ' digital politics' is no longer a new phenomenon, and its techniques, language and logic are now an integral part of contemporary political practice, there is still a wide-spread sense amongst political practitioners that the old ways of ' doing politics are somehow under pressure from the relentless expansion of digital technologies, channels and styles. Whether these developments are characterized as enhancing, corrupting, broadening, narrowing or simply complicating is a matter of perspective. This book is neither a celebration of digital politics nor a cry of despair. It is instead an invitation to take stock by catching up with the latest knowledge and perspectives from some of the most impressive researchers in the field. We have intentionally selected contributors whom we knew would provide original, incisive and provocative thoughts. Their contributions are organized into six thematic sections.
