I founded, and I’m the series editor, for the Oxford Studies in Digital Politics book series with Oxford University Press.

If you’re interested in submitting a book proposal for consideration, the best way to reach me is via email. All proposals are carefully considered. Books that reach the commissioning stage have proceeded through stringent scholarly peer review and OUP’s double commissioning board system. As series editor, I regularly work with authors in the early stages of developing a project. If I take a proposal into the peer review process, I work closely with the publisher in New York and rely on the invaluable support of a large network of hundreds of expert academic reviewers around the world.

This is how things currently stand with the series…
