Critical Approaches to Researching Video Game Play

Utopic Dreams and Apocalyptic Fantasies

This book represents cutting-edge research that addresses major issues of social exclusion, power and liberatory fantasies in virtual play. Specifically, the scope of the book examines three areas of concern: social psychological implications of virtual gameplay; reproduction and contestation of social inequality in virtual realms.
