Call for Articles: Examining the Futures of Digital Death

Submissions are invited for a forthcoming special issue of Death Studies, entitled Futures of Digital Death: Mobilities of Loss and Commemoration.

Themes may include:

-The digital economies of death, dying, commemoration and loss
-Dying online or digital mediations of death
-Personalization and hybridization of rituals, digital memorialization, mourning practices
-Digital afterlives, agency and the social presence of the dead.
