It encompasses a broad spectrum of technical, social, political, cultural and economic developments related to the mass use of computer- and internet-based technologies. It is now becoming increasingly clear that digitization is also changing existing structures of social inequality and that new structures of digital inequality are emerging. This is shown by a growing number of recent individual studies. In this paper, we set ourselves the task of systematizing this new research within the framework of an empirically supported literature review. To do so, we use the PRISMA model for literature reviews and focus on three central dimensions of inequality - ethnicity, gender, and age - and their relevance within the discourse on digitization and inequality. The empirical basis consists of journal articles published between 2000 and 2020 and listed on the Web of Science, as well as an additional Google Scholar search, through which we attempt to include important monographs and contributions to edited volumes in our analyses. Our text corpus thus comprises a total of 281 articles. Empirically, our literature review shows that unequal access to digital resources largely reproduces existing structures of inequality; in some cases, studies report a reduction in social inequalities as a result of the digitization process.}, language = {en} } @article{AndersonSuzukiSwingetal.2017, author = {Anderson, Craig A. and Suzuki, Kanae and Swing, Edward L. and Groves, Christopher L. and Gentile, Douglas A. and Prot, Sara and Lam, Chun Pan and Sakamoto, Akira and Horiuchi, Yukiko and Krah{\´e}, Barbara and Jelic, Margareta and Wei Liuqing, and Toma, Roxana and Warburton, Wayne A. and Zhang, Xue-Min and Tajima, Sachi and Qing, Feng and Petrescu, Poesis}, title = {Media Violence and Other Aggression Risk Factors in Seven Nations}, series = {Personality and social psychology bulletin}, volume = {43}, journal = {Personality and social psychology bulletin}, publisher = {Sage Publ.}, address = {Thousand Oaks}, issn = {0146-1672}, doi = {10.1177/0146167217703064}, pages = {986 -- 998}, year = {2017}, abstract = {Cultural generality versus specificity of media violence effects on aggression was examined in seven countries (Australia, China, Croatia, Germany, Japan, Romania, the United States). Participants reported aggressive behaviors, media use habits, and several other known risk and protective factors for aggression. Across nations, exposure to violent screen media was positively associated with aggression. This effect was partially mediated by aggressive cognitions and empathy. The media violence effect on aggression remained significant even after statistically controlling a number of relevant risk and protective factors (e.g., abusive parenting, peer delinquency), and was similar in magnitude to effects of other risk factors. In support of the cumulative risk model, joint effects of different risk factors on aggressive behavior in each culture were larger than effects of any individual risk factor.}, language = {en} } @article{Ehrentraut2011, author = {Ehrentraut, Stefan}, title = {Perpetually temporary citizenship and ethnic Vietnamese in Cambodia}, series = {Ethnic and racial studies}, volume = {34}, journal = {Ethnic and racial studies}, number = {5}, publisher = {Routledge, Taylor \& Francis Group}, address = {Abingdon}, issn = {0141-9870}, doi = {10.1080/01419870.2010.537359}, pages = {779 -- 798}, year = {2011}, abstract = {There is a clear trend in Western democratic countries towards regularizing the status of long-term ethnic minority residents through the conferral of full and equal citizenship rights. Ethnic minorities who arrived as irregular or temporary migrants in the West are increasingly allowed to follow the immigrant path towards integration into the broader citizenry. This is largely due to recognition that the price of exclusion is not only unjust, but it increases the risk of racial tensions, criminality, and social violence. Investigating the relevance of these Western developments to Cambodia, this article focuses on Cambodia's ethnic Vietnamese minority. Despite residing in Cambodia for generations, ethnic Vietnamese have traditionally been regarded as 'foreign residents' and denied citizenship. Based on extensive field research, this article considers the history and reality of Cambodia's ethnic Vietnamese minority as well as the ethnically-exclusionary policies and practices of the state and Khmer majority towards them.}, language = {en} }
