Algorithmic Gatekeeping for Professional Communicators
This book provides a critical study of the power, trust, and legitimacy of algorithmic gatekeepers. The news and public information which citizens see and hear is no longer solely determined by journalists, but increasingly by algorithms. Van Dalen demonstrates the gatekeeping power of social media algorithms by showing how they affect exposure to diverse information and misinformation and shape the behaviour of professional communicators. Trust and legitimacy are foregrounded as two crucial antecedents for the acceptance of this algorithmic power. This study reveals low trust among the general population in algorithms performing journalistic tasks and a perceived lack of legitimacy of algor...
Storying Humanity: Narratives of Culture and Society
This volume was first published by Inter-Disciplinary Press in 2015. Since time immemorial, storytelling has held a critical place in the heart of human identity. Whether for entertainment, education, artistry, or even survival, storytelling has served as an integral tool for expression and existence in every society and civilization across the globe. Our world has never been more connected, with stories of our past available at the touch of a key, and the ever-advancing present unfolding through personal experiences that are instantaneously narrated online. Through stories, we may gain perspective into the histories, cultures, and experiences of remote places and peoples, achieve greater understanding of complex social issues and closed-off societies, or add to the collective global narrative through blogging and social media. This collection presents the reader with multicultural and interdisciplinary academic insight into the ability for storytelling to illuminate our world and narrativize humanity.

Challenging the view that questions are asked with the purpose of seeking information and eliciting answers, these studies open up new research avenues through insightful investigations and critical scrutiny th...
Danske taler
I Danmark holder vi taler uafbrudt. Lejlighedstaler og politiske taler. Nytårsaften og 1. januar sidder mange danskere foran fjernsynet og lytter til dronningens og statsministerens nytårstaler. Og i foråret forbereder forældre og unge sig på at hylde hinanden ved konfirmationsfester, mens også 1. maj-taler, grundlovstaler, pris- og takketaler og båltaler til sankthansaften er lige så sikre som amen i kirken og lederens konstante tale til medarbejderne. Vi taler og lytter og spekulerer som gale over, hvad der egentlig bliver sagt og skal siges. I danske taler skabes, formes og forhandles de værdier, der udgør koordinaterne for vores individuelle og fælles stræben. I talerne formu...
