Press blurb: Hidden information, double meanings, double-crossing, and the
constant processes of encoding and decoding messages have always been
important techniques in negotiating social and political power dynamics.
Yet these tools, “cryptopolitics,” are transformed when used within digital
media. Focusing on African societies, *Cryptopolitics* brings together
empirically grounded studies of digital media toconsider public culture,
sociality, and power in all its forms, illustrating the analytical
potential of cryptopolitics to elucidate intimate relationships, political
protest, and economic strategies in the digital age.
