'Killer Games' Versus 'We Will Fund Violence': The Perception of Digital Games and Mass Media in Germany and Australia
Jens Schroeder
While the assessment of digital games in Germany is framed by a high-culture critique, which regards them as an 'illegitimate' activity, they are enjoyed by a wider demographic as a 'legitimate' pastime in Australia. This book analyses the social history of digital gaming in both countries and relates it to their socio-cultural traditions.
