About this item

by Jonathan McDonald (Editor), Kevin McDonald (Author)

In late August 2014, the gaming industry became embroiled in one of the most heated and divisive controversies of the early 21st century. What began as a debate over the ethics and responsibilities of video games journalists, quickly turned into a battle over cultural identity and values. So what exactly happened during GamerGate and what can we learn from it? That's what this book sets out to explore. Not as a partisan diatribe, but as a case study in conversation and as a learning experience. If we are going to overcome the unique cultural challenges facing us today, then we must learn from our past.
