we are very pleased to share that possibly the first edited volume approaching maker culture and makerspaces from an academic perspective has just been published :-)

Titled Landscapes of participatory making, modding and hacking: maker culture and makerspaces, the book describes maker culture as it is manifested in particular socio-cultural contexts, and describes some of the underlying narratives behind the emergence of such cultures and hackerspaces. With reference to case studies, it invites a recasting of long-standing academic notions of industrialization, industrial location, urbanization, and regional divides.
