Book Media Trust in a Digital World

Download or read book Media Trust in a Digital World written by Thomas Osburg and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-11-23 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the shifting role of media trust in a digital world, and critically analyzes how news and stories are created, distributed and consumed. Emphasis is placed on the current challenges and possible solutions to regain trust and restore credibility. The book reveals the role of trust in communication, in society and in media, and subsequently addresses media at the crossroads, as evinced by phenomena like gatekeepers, echo chambers and fake news. The following chapters explore truth and trust in journalism, the role of algorithms and robots in media, and the relation between social media and individual trust. The book then presents case studies highlighting how media creates trust in the contexts of: brands and businesses, politics and non-governmental organizations, science and education. In closing, it discusses the road ahead, with a focus on users, writers, platforms and communication in general, and on media competency, skills and education in particular.

Book Dynamische Prozesse der   ffentlichen Kommunikation

Download or read book Dynamische Prozesse der ffentlichen Kommunikation written by Philipp Müller and published by Herbert von Halem Verlag. This book was released on 2019-10-15 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Öffentliche Kommunikationsprozesse sind im Zeitalter der Digitalisierung von einer wachsenden Dynamik geprägt. Dies stellt die Kommunikationsforschung vor erhebliche methodische Herausforderungen. Die Methodenentwicklung steckt noch in den Kinderschuhen, wenn es darum geht, die eng getakteten und komplexen Interaktionsmuster menschlicher Akteure und technischer Strukturen der digitalen Öffentlichkeit adäquat abzubilden. Empirische Studien sind dazu gezwungen, die Komplexität der Dynamiken in der sozialen Realität zu reduzieren, um diese fassbar zu machen. Damit geht jedoch stets die Gefahr einher, entscheidende Aspekte zu übersehen. Die in diesem Band versammelten Beiträge widmen sich diesem Dilemma am Beispiel verschiedener Anwendungsfelder, von der Kommunikator- und Medieninhaltsforschung bis zur Rezeptions- und Wirkungsforschung. Die Beiträge liegen auf verschiedenen Stufen des Forschungsprozesses und befassen sich mit einer Vielzahl methodischer Ansätze wie der automatisierten Inhaltsanalyse, der Netzwerkanalyse oder der qualitativen Beobachtung. Sie eint die Suche nach innovativen Lösungen für ein gemeinsames Problem, nämlich die zunehmende Dynamik öffentlicher Kommunikationsprozesse adäquat abzubilden.

Book Political Media Relations Online as an Elite Phenomenon

Download or read book Political Media Relations Online as an Elite Phenomenon written by Jan Niklas Kocks and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-07 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jan Niklas Kocks explores the effects of the now almost ubiquitous online media on political media relations and the interactions defining them. He analyses the ways in which leading political spokespersons and journalists perceive digitisation in terms of technological, organisational and political change as well as the actual adaptations of digitisation on an individual and organisational level. Political media relations are approached from a perspective of social network analysis. Findings indicate a picture of political media relations as a continuing elite phenomenon. Networks are still mostly characterised by exclusive arrangements – and often to an even larger degree than the actors involved actually perceive.

Book Race and Ethnicity in Digital Culture

Download or read book Race and Ethnicity in Digital Culture written by Anthony Bak Buccitelli and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2017-11-10 with total page 549 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this unprecedented study, leading scholars and emerging voices from around the world consider how race and ethnicity continue to shape our everyday lives, even as digital technology seems to promise a release from our "real" social identities. How do people use the new expressive features of digital technologies to experience, represent, discuss, and debate racial and ethnic identity? How have digital technologies or digital spaces become racialized? How have the existing vernacular traditions, or folklore, surrounding identity been reshaped in digital spaces? And how have new traditions emerged? This interdisciplinary volume of essays explores the role of traditional culture in the evolving expressions, practices, and images of race and ethnicity in the digital age. The work examines cultural forms in exclusively digital environments as well as in the hybrid environments created by mobile technologies, where real life becomes overlaid with digital content. Insights from academics across disciplines—including anthropology, communications, folkloristics, art, and sociology—consider the interplay between race/ethnicity, everyday vernacular culture, and digital technologies. Six sections explore traditional cultural affordances of technology, folklore and digital applications, visual cultures of race and ethnicity, racism and exclusion online, political activism and race, and concluding observations. The book covers technologies such as vlogs, video games, digital photography, messaging applications, social media sites, and the Internet.

Book Eco Friendly and Fair

Download or read book Eco Friendly and Fair written by Mark Heuer and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-05-11 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The make-take-waste paradigm of fast fashion explains much of the producer and consumer behavior patterns towards fast fashion. The evolution from a two-season fashion calendar to fast fashion, characterized by rapid product cycles from retailers and impulse buying by consumers, presents new challenges to the environment, workplace and labour practices. This book provides a comprehensive overview of new insights into consumer behaviour mechanisms in order to shift practices toward sustainable fashion and to minimize the negative impacts of fast fashion on the environment and society. Concepts and techniques are presented that could overcome the formidable economic drivers of fast fashion and lead toward a future of sustainable fashion. While the need for change in the fashion industry post-Rana Plaza could not be more obvious, alternative and more sustainable consumption models have been under-investigated. The paucity of such research extends to highly consumptive consumer behaviours regarding fast fashion (i.e. impulse buying and throwaways) and the related impediments these behaviours pose for sustainable fashion. Written by leading researchers in the field of sustainable fashion and supported by the Textile Institute, this book evaluates fashion trends, what factors have led to new trends and how the factors supporting fast fashion differ from those of the past. It explores the economic drivers of fast fashion and what social, environmental and political factors should be maintained, and business approaches adopted, in order for fast fashion to be a sustainable model. In particular, it provides consumer behaviour concepts that can be utilized at the retail level to support sustainable fashion.
