About Prof. Gabe Jones
My research interests focus on the intersections of power, knowledge, information, and communication – what constitutes knowledge, who gets to determine what counts as knowledge (and how and why), who has access to it, what channels enable or disable that access (and how they in turn influence understanding), and how each of those dimensions in turn shape our sense of self, our world, and our connections to others.
