Book excerpt: ¿Puede el mensaje de un antiguo manuscrito hacer tambalear las bases de la economía moderna? Es lo que intenta dilucidar el economista Martín Echeverría quien debe traducir un antiguo libro de delicadas páginas metálicas robado a una secta de Libia. El Mensaje de Atlantis aparece en un mundo enfrentado a la mayor crisis económica de los últimos tiempos y es una esperanza para los que sufren la cesantía, miseria y desamparo: los indignados. Tanto iluminados, masones y simples profesionales idealistas mostrarán sus propias intenciones respecto a la necesidad de esconder o difundir el secreto. El Mensaje de Atlantis remece no por ser la respuesta de inquietudes históricas ni por ser una guía hacia tesoros incalculables, sino por su extrema simpleza, por ser el tercer ojo de cada habitante de la tierra que se abre para descubrir que la verdad es más simple y cercana que lo que nunca se había pensado.

Download or read book Networks of Outrage and Hope written by Manuel Castells and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2015-06-04 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Networks of Outrage and Hope is an exploration of the new forms of social movements and protests that are erupting in the world today, from the Arab uprisings to the indignadas movement in Spain, from the Occupy Wall Street movement to the social protests in Turkey, Brazil and elsewhere. While these and similar social movements differ in many important ways, there is one thing they share in common: they are all interwoven inextricably with the creation of autonomous communication networks supported by the Internet and wireless communication. In this new edition of his timely and important book, Manuel Castells examines the social, cultural and political roots of these new social movements, studies their innovative forms of self-organization, assesses the precise role of technology in the dynamics of the movements, suggests the reasons for the support they have found in large segments of society, and probes their capacity to induce political change by influencing people’s minds. Two new chapters bring the analysis up-to-date and draw out the implications of these social movements and protests for understanding the new forms of social change and political democracy in the global network society.

On the other side of the fjord, lived the king's friend Thorstein (Þorsteinn Víkingsson) whose son Frithjof (Friðþjófur) was called the bold (hinn frœkni).

Download or read book Grassroots Memorials written by Peter Jan Margry and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2011-08-01 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grassroots memorials have become major areas of focus during times of trauma, danger, and social unrest. These improvised memorial assemblages continue to display new and more dynamic ways of representing collective and individual identities and in doing so reveal the steps that shape the national memories of those who struggle to come to terms with traumatic loss. This volume focuses on the hybrid quality of these temporary memorials as both monuments of mourning and as focal points for protest and expression of discontent. The broad range of case studies in this volume include anti-mafia shrines, Theo van Gogh’s memorial, September 11th memorials, March 11th shrines in Madrid, and Carlo Giuliani memorials in Genoa.

Download or read book Social Movements and Their Technologies written by Stefania Milan and published by Springer. This book was released on 2013-11-06 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now in paperback for the first time, Social Movements and their Technologies explores the interplay between social movements and their 'liberated technologies'. It analyzes the rise of low-power radio stations and radical internet projects ('emancipatory communication practices') as a political subject, focusing on the sociological and cultural processes at play. It provides an overview of the relationship between social movements and technology, and investigates what is behind the communication infrastructure that made possible the main protest events of the past fifteen years. In doing so, Stefania Milan illustrates how contemporary social movements organize in order to create autonomous alternatives to communication systems and networks, and how they contribute to change the way people communicate in daily life, as well as try to change communication policy from the grassroots. She situates these efforts in a historical context in order to show the origins of contemporary communication activism, and its linkages to media reform campaigns and policy advocacy.
Download or read book La Verdad de Gabriel written by Antonio Lategana and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-11 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El obsesionado comportamiento ético de Miguel en su ejercicio profesional como abogado, solamente le permitió percibir a la justicia, como la dama ciega que equilibra su balanza con el peso exclusivo de la VERDAD, sin embargo, tan loable convencimiento, lo alejó completamente de la senda exitosa. La sensación y percepción de vida que nos pertenece todos, fue entonces interrumpida sorpresivamente en Miguel e incorporado al dulce y hermoso despertar que representa la promesa inequívoca de Vida Eterna. En esa insuperable, única e inmejorable dimensión, fue invitado a participar como fiscal acusador, para el juicio del milenio, al que seria sometida esa VERDAD, por ausentarse reiteradamente entre los hombres. El juicio requería presentar un caso que pudiese considerarse emblemático y representativo, un caso donde el uso de la mentira fuese reiterado y sin escrúpulos, para desplazar y anular a la VERDAD y consentir a la avaricia y al engaño colectivo. Sin duda alguna, la manipulación del mercado petrolero y sus derivados, cumplían con cada uno de esos requisitos.

Download or read book Emotions Protest Democracy written by Emmy Eklundh and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-01-30 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the rise of both populist parties and social movements in Europe, the role of emotions in politics has once again become key to political debates, and particularly in the Spanish case. Since 2011, the Spanish political landscape has been redrawn. What started as the Indignados movement has now transformed into the party Podemos, which claims to address important deficits in popular representation. By creating space for emotions, the movement and the party have made this a key feature of their political subjectivity. Emotions and affect, however, are often viewed as either purely instrumental to political goals or completely detached from ‘real’ politics. This book argues that the hierarchy between the rational and the emotional works to sediment exclusionary practices in politics, deeming some forms of political expressions more worthy than others. Using radical theories of democracy, Emmy Eklundh masterfully tackles this problem and constructs an analytical framework based on the concept of visceral ties, which sees emotions and affect as constitutive of any collective identity. She later demonstrates empirically, using both ethnographic method and social media analysis, how the movement Indignados is different from the political party Podemos with regards to emotions and affect, but that both are suffering from a broader devaluation of emotional expressions in political life. Bridging social and political theory, Emotions, Protest, Democracy: Collective Identities in Contemporary Spain provides one of the few in-depth accounts of the transition from the movement Indignados to party Podemos, and the role of emotions in contemporary Spanish and European politics.

This book was released on 2021 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book investigates how political parties from 12 European countries used Facebook to inform, interact with and mobilise voters at the 2019 European Parliament election. Following a joint theoretical framework and method, the results of a content analysis of more than 14,000 Facebook posts are presented. Country specific chapters are followed by analyses of European parties Facebook campaigning, the spread of populism and the use of Facebook ads by the parties. The final chapter compares all countries showing that campaigns are more strongly shaped by the national than by the European political context. Facebook is used for campaigning as usual; parties inform and persuade but neglect the platforms mobilisation and particularly interactive affordances.
