Information Disorder
This book focuses on the recent rise of “infodemics” as forms of disinformation, misinformation and mal-information saturate contemporary media platforms, shaping public opinion to advance agendas. The internet in general and social media in particular have relativized, through their global, complex and instantaneous information flows, assumptions about truth and authority in fact-based content. This has created new opportunities for state actors to use information beyond traditional conceptions of propaganda to directly assault a public’s conception of reality. Additionally, almost anyone has the capability to challenge evidential claims through narratives and imagery alone as there i...
Rebel Girls!
La música es una manifestación cultural clave en la sociedad, conecta intensa y emocionalmente con la identidad y permite articular subjetividades vitales para las personas. Tomando como premisa la canción «Rebel Girl» de Bikini Kill, las reivindicaciones de la cuarta ola del feminismo, el impacto del movimiento #MeToo, el resurgir del activismo y los discursos feministas en Iberoamérica, este volumen aborda la actual desigualdad de género en la industria musical. Una obra sólidamente documentada que ilustra la envergadura del movimiento activista y perfila el impacto de redes sociales y plataformas en la construcción de la igualdad, al mismo tiempo que analiza en detalle los discursos y las representaciones que están protagonizando artistas y compositoras en la industria musical de España y América Latina.
Popular Music in Spanish Cinema

The book enables an understanding of the relationships between the recording an...

Mujer y televisión
Este libro ofrece al lector una recopilación de investigaciones televisivas centradas en la representación de la mujer, tanto en los productos de ficción como informativos, de telerrealidad y nuevos formatos digitales. Los textos analizan cómo los productos televisivos constituyen un pilar fundamental en la construcción social de la mujer, mediante narraciones que son aceptadas de forma casi absoluta por los receptores. Se analiza, de forma crítica, la presencia y representación de las mujeres en el medio en cuestión y sus derivados, en un intento por dejar constancia del rol que la mujer adquiere en una idiosincrasia global televisiva y se invita al lector a la reflexión crítica sobre la posición que ocupa el imaginario femenino en la televisión y sus representaciones.
Pragmatics of Internet Humour
This book provides a first thorough analysis of internet humour from a cognitive-pragmatic perspective, covering a wide range of discourses that are pervasive online and focusing especially on messaging interactions, social networking sites and memes. Its chapters describe the inferential strategies implemented to turn online coded discourses into meaningful interpretations, which in turn can be devised and manipulated for the sake of humour. Furthermore, and apart from the typical object of pragmatic research (humorous discourses), the book emphasises the importance of the interfaces’ design and of the qualities of the users engaged in humorous interactions (called contextual constraints)...
YouTube
Since launching as a website for everyday video-sharing in 2005, YouTube has become one of the world’s most powerful digital media platforms. Originally published in 2009 when YouTube was only four years old, this book was the first to systematically investigate its cultural impacts and politics, highlighting the productive tensions between its amateur community rhetoric and its commercial media logics. Since then, YouTube has grown as a platform and matured as a company. Its business model is built on coordinating the interests of and extracting value from its content creators, audiences, advertisers and media partners, in a commercial setting where YouTube now competes with other powerfu...
