In this ‘dialogue’ article, the three editors of the special issue debate three key themes arising from the articles that follow. We discuss the dilemmas posed by the institutionalisation or ‘authorisation’ of media education within the formal education system; persistent questions about the role of media education as an intervention in the processes of students' identity formation; and the vexed debate about judgments of cultural value and their relevance to the field. The discussion suggests some shared themes and some clear differences between Australasian and British perspectives, which emerge from their overlapping but distinctive histories.

Data Surveillance

As digitization and datafication continue to extend into all areas of society, digital capitalism becomes equally ubiquitous and universal. Digital capitalism, and related phenomena such as data, surveillance or platform capitalism, operate on the basis of a comprehensive expropriation and exploitation of personal data profiles. It functionalizes life worlds and places of education to an unprecedented extent. This special issue is responding to the following questions: What position/s can media education in research and application take to respond to these developments? Which theories, concepts and methods help to formulate adequate analytical, critical and transformative answers?
