Religious policy
Denomination policy is an important part of the public life of the state. Central and local governments search for models that enable the shaping of relations between the state and denominational associations. This is also of significance in relation to the changes associated with migration and fluctuation of followers of various faiths. How is this search carried out? What does it lead to? The book analyzes the phenomenon of religious politics. In addition to concrete case studies, the volume includes contributions dealing with theoretical issues, such as methodological problems of research on religions and beliefs as a factor hindering the formation of religious politics, studies of religious politics as a component of research on religious politics, the search for regularities in the relationship between religious politics and geopolitics.

The Multiple Worlds of Fringe
With diverse contributions from scholars in English literature, psychology, and film and television studies, this collection of essays contextualizes Fringe as a postmodern investigation into what makes us human and as an examination of how technology transforms our humanity. In compiling this collection, the editors sought material as multifaceted as the series itself, devoting sections to specific areas of interest explored by both the writers of Fringe and the writers of the essays: humanity, duality, genre and viewership.
Contenidos y discurso comunicativo audiovisual y textual
Los últimos años han sido testigos de una actividad investigadora inusualmente feraz en el campo de la Comunicación y, por ello, de un aumento exponencial en la producción científica visibilizada internacionalmente en España. Esto ha sido posible gracias al esfuerzo de investigadores, editoriales y revistas universitarias, quienes han permitido situar a España en el mapa de los países más publicadores y, a su vez, esta ola productiva ha logrado tirar de los países de la Lengua mediante el empleo de las mejoras ofrecidas por las TIC, hasta límites considerados como ‘increíbles’ no ha mucho tiempo. En este estado de cosas hemos de incardinar esfuerzos como el presente: la publi...
Bajo la influencia del branded content
El branded content —contenidos y entretenimiento patrocinados por una marca— plantea toda una serie de interesantes cuestiones, especialmente cuando se dirige al público infantil y juvenil. ¿Es útil para todas las marcas? ¿Cuándo y cómo debe utilizarse? ¿Consigue solo un efecto temporal o puede servir para crear relaciones duraderas? ¿Cómo lo viven los jóvenes consumidores y cómo interactúan con él? Y, sobre todo, ¿cómo practicar estas técnicas de una manera seria, consecuente y responsable? Durante el último festival de «El Chupete» se produjo un amplio y extenso debate sobre este tipo de publicidad que no parece publicidad. Y se llegó a las conclusiones que aquí re...
Géneros de la animación. Con A de Animación 14
Se suele debatir si la animación es una técnica, un género, o incluso un lenguaje con leyes propias, donde todo es posible. En cualquier caso, a la animación le pasa a veces lo mismo que al documental: para algunos cronistas, parece que no exista. Desde 2011, en Con A de animación estamos luchando para visibilizar la animación como género, y a sus géneros o, si lo prefieren, diferentes formatos. No en balde, uno de los géneros con más pujanza en el mundo de la imagen animada es el videojuego, como puede verse en la imagen de portada que debemos al distinguido estudio Deconstructeam, y es que el videojuego indie es cada vez más una categoría gemela al cine de autor por su voluntad...
Hate Speech and Polarization in Participatory Society
This timely volume offers a comprehensive and rigorous overview of the role of communication in the construction of hate speech and polarization in the online and offline arena. Delving into the meanings, implications, contexts and effects of extreme speech and gated communities in the media landscape, the chapters analyse misleading metaphors and rhetoric via focused case studies to understand how we can overcome the risks and threats stemming from the past decade’s defining communicative phenomena. The book brings together an international team of experts, enabling a broad, multidisciplinary approach that examines hate speech, dislike, polarization and enclave deliberation as cross axes ...
Writing Teresa
Writing Teresa: The Saint from Ávila at the fin-de-siglo examines the Teresa de Jesús “boom” of roughly 1880–1930, and offers an in-depth study of five major Spanish participants in the turn-of-the-twentieth-century explosion of literary treatments of St. Teresa. This historical period’s interest in the Saint from Ávila relates to popularization and nationalization of aspects of Catholicism, technological advances, a modernist fascination with saintly heroes, the search for new Spanish identities, and the evolving role of women writers and intellectuals. Teresa was mysticism in its historical context, energy in a time of doubt, the possibility of reconciling science and spirituality, a new vision for writing, and a maternal figure linked to the religion of the past for those who had lost the faith of their childhood.
