Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A circulação massiva de discursos de ódio em redes sociais é um produto de nossos tempos. Do encontro entre um cenário de tensão social e o avanço das tecnologias de comunicação, surgiu um mundo em que todos podem (e acreditam que devem) ter voz para expressar seus ideais, por mais problemáticos que sejam. O livro que o leitor tem em mãos explora esse fenômeno, mas, mais do que isso, busca entender qual a melhor forma de lidar com seus perigos. Para além da discussão jurídica e moral a respeito do que pode ou não ser dito, seu autor está preocupado com as ferramentas de que dispomos, como sociedade, para controlar discursos nocivos enquanto preservamos discursos legítimos. Em outras palavras, o trabalho engaja com a seguinte pergunta: o que realmente funciona no combate aos discursos de ódio em redes sociais?

Download or read book Discurso de dio nas redes sociais written by Luiz Valério Trindade and published by Editora Jandaíra. This book was released on 2022-03-24 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Com rigor metodológico, Luiz Valério Trindade evidencia o crescimento das redes sociais e analisa o quanto elas cooperam para o aumento dos discursos de ódio ao mesmo tempo que lucram com essas ações. Por meio de conhecimento qualificado e embasado, o autor revisita momentos importantes da história do Brasil pós-abolição para sedimentar conceitos fundamentais que permitem compreender a dinâmica racial nos tempos atuais, evidenciando o quanto o processo de construção da identidade nacional baseou-se pela ideologia do branqueamento. A partir de evidências de que as mulheres negras são as principais vítimas dos discursos que ridicularizam e inferiorizam suas existências, Luiz Valério Trindade analisa textos postados em redes sociais e mostra o quanto o racismo intersecciona-se com sexismo e questões de classe. Dessa forma, a obra contribui para conscientizar a sociedade e enriquecer o debate público em busca de soluções, com alternativas práticas para o enfrentamento deste problema.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este livro examina os sentidos da política construídos pelos discursos e percursos passionais disseminados nas redes sociais nas disputas ocorridas entre 2010 e 2020. Busca-se localizar o que esse período apresenta como novidade em termos da disseminação massiva das redes socitécnicas de comunicação que modificaram os modos de fazer política, especificamente considerando a emergência dos circuitos dos afetos do ódio. Para entender esse período, desenvolvemos textos analíticos que se debruçam sobre as enunciações nas redes sociais em momentos marcantes da década. Esses textos pretendem se constituir como um arco narrativo, desde que lidos em conjunto, arco que se inicia nos anos de apogeu dos governos do PT, passa por sucessivas crises, entre as quais a do impeachment e do acirramento do que se chamou "polarização", até chegar à pandemia de covid-19. Os temas principais debatidos são: a democracia em crise, a era PT e pós-PT, o impeachment e a disputa pelos sentidos do "povo brasileiro", perfis falsos e fake news, a nova política no Facebook e a direita passionalizada, entre outros. Autores: Heloisa Prates Pereira, José Luiz Aidar Prado e vinicius Prates

This book was released on 2024-10-31 with total page 517 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge Handbook of Political Communication in Ibero-America addresses the relationship between communication, politics, and digital technologies in Latin American and the Iberian Peninsula, a geographical space linked by social, cultural, and linguistic aspects. In recent years, digital media have been central in the dialogue established by political parties, institutions, the media, and citizens. In this hybrid space emerged certain phenomena that are of interest, particularly in the Ibero-American landscape, including disinformation and fake news, protests on social media, the organization of social movements, the relationship between the press and the state, political participation, populism, the role played by emotions and memes, the impact of AI and platformization on politics, and topics of debate in the public sphere. This Handbook is structured into nine parts, beginning with a historical contextualization and then exploring central aspects of the discipline. It then goes on to study trends at the regional level, increasing knowledge about how political communication and digital technologies are changing multiple aspects of Ibero-American societies, where political communication plays a fundamental role – especially in electoral processes, with its consequent effects on democracy. This Handbook will be of interest to academics, students, and professionals in the fields of political science, communication, journalism, advertising, marketing, and sociology, as well as public opinion consulting. It will be of particular interest to undergraduate and postgraduate students from Latin America, Portugal, and Spain.

Download or read book Hate speech and abusive behaviour on social media A cross cultural perspective written by Luiz Valério P. Trindade and published by Vernon Press. This book was released on 2024-09-24 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The adverse societal impacts of social media platforms comprise a subject of global concern, given that this digital technology has become a breeding ground for the manifestation of varied forms of online harassment and abuse. Yet, most studies exploring this phenomenon have done so predominantly in Anglophone social contexts (notably, the US and the UK). Thus, the present work examines hate speech and abusive behaviour adopting an innovative cross-cultural perspective. To this end, the book analyses a sample of 108 scholarly papers originally published in three non-hegemonic languages (Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish) and encompassing 11 countries (Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, El Salvador, Italy, Mexico, Peru, Portugal, and Spain). In this context, the development of this study highlights the relevance of considering cultural, historical and linguistic factors when analysing hate speech and abusive behaviour on social media. By confronting and evaluating findings from different countries and languages, the study sheds light on how cultural norms and language use shape the manifestation and impact of online harassment and abuse. Besides, the study also reveals that social media plays the pivotal dual role of catalyst and vehicle for disseminating hate and abuse. As such, they can bring a series of adverse societal impacts upon individuals, vulnerable social groups, society, and democracy. Ultimately, social media platforms allow offenders the capability to unleash and disseminate aggressive and discriminatory ideologies, attracting numerous like-minded people to subvert and disregard any social convention constraints and norms of conviviality. Consequently, one of social media’s most significant negative impacts is the undermining of social cohesion. Therefore, the present book is of interest to students, established scholars, and researchers in various disciplines, including sociology, criminology, media and communication studies, and digital humanities. Moreover, it is recommended reading for policymakers, leaders of non-governmental organisations, educators, journalists, and anyone interested in learning more about social media’s impacts on people’s lives.

Download or read book The Routledge Handbook of Cultural Discourse Studies written by Shi- xu and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-03-29 with total page 641 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In response to the cultural challenges in society and scholarship, this handbook presents the conceptions, assumptions, principles, methods, topics and issues in the studies of cultural forms of human communication—cultural discourses—by experts from around the world. A culturalist programme in communication studies (CS), cultural discourse studies (CDS), as represented in this handbook, is a new current of thought in human and social science and a form of academic activism, but above all, it is a fresh paradigm of research committed to enhancing cultural harmony and prosperity on the one hand and facilitating intellectual plurality and innovation on the other hand. This handbook is the first of its kind; it is concerned with the identities of, and interactions between, the world’s diverse cultural communities through locally-grounded and globally-minded, culturally conscious and critical approaches to their communicative practice. Contributors apply such insights, precepts and techniques, not merely to discover and describe past and present communication, but also to design and guide future communication. This handbook is ideal for scholars and students interested in cultural aspects and issues of communication/discourse, as well as researchers of other fields looking to apply cultural discourse methods to their own projects.

Download or read book No Laughing Matter Race Joking and Resistance in Brazilian Social Media written by Luiz Valério P. Trindade and published by Vernon Press. This book was released on 2020-10-06 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘No Laughing Matter: Race Joking and Resistance in Brazilian Social Media’ examines the social phenomenon of construction and dissemination of colonial-like racist discourses fostered against upwardly-mobile black women through disparagement humour on social media platforms, adopting a fresh and innovative perspective. In this book, Luiz Valério P. Trindade explores the idea that disparagement humour might not be as exempt of social impact as the jokers might believe, and that, in fact, this kind of humour reveals the hidden facet of deep-seated colonial ideologies still present in Brazilian society despite being hailed as a unique model of a post-racial society. The author argues that these ideologies establish and naturalise superior social positions and symbolic privileges to whites while undermining and delegitimising black women’s upward social mobility. Social media platforms enable the proponents of these beliefs not only to engage in the practice of online hate speech but also to attract a considerable number of like-minded people, creating a long-lasting echo chamber effect in the cyberspace. This way, they manage to amplify the reach and reverberation of their racist discourses in the online environment in ways not commonly seen in Brazilian offline social contexts. This monograph is of great interest and relevance to students, scholars, and researchers across a variety of disciplines, most notably Critical Race Studies, Media Communication Studies and Critical Humour Studies, and also academics in other areas such as Critical Discourse Analysis, Postcolonial Studies, Cultural Studies and Latin American Studies.
