Audience Transformations
The concept of the audience is changing. In the twenty-first century there are novel configurations of user practices and technological capabilities that are altering the way we understand and trust media organizations and representations, how we participate in society, and how we construct our social relations. This book embeds these transformations in a societal, cultural, technological, ideological, economic and historical context, avoiding a naive privileging of technology as the main societal driving force, but also avoiding the media-centric reduction of society to the audiences that are situated within. Audience Transformations provides a platform for a nuanced and careful analysis of the main changes in European communicational practices, and their social, cultural and technological affordances.
Digital Media and the Dynamics of Civil Society
Based on an extended empirical research project, this book advances the theoretical, normative and practical understanding of civil society under the conditions of digital mediatization and in relation to a set of particular historical and geopolitical circumstances. Digital Media and the Dynamics of Civil Society adds to existing knowledge of the democratizing role of digital media in communication studies by carefully tracing the trajectory of the emergent communicative and representational practices of civil society in a pair of new European democracies – Estonia and Bulgaria – facing distinctive socio-cultural and political challenges. The book combines macro and micro perspectives t...
Radio Audiences and Participation in the Age of Network Society
This book maps, describes and further explores all contemporary forms of interaction between radio and its public, with a specific focus on those forms of content co-creation that link producers and listeners. Each essay will analyze one or more case studies, piecing together a map of emerging co-creation practices in contemporary radio. Contributors describe the rise of a new class of radio listeners: the networked ones. Networked audiences are made up of listeners that are not only able to produce written and audio content for radio and co-create along with the radio producers (even definitively bypassing the central hub of the radio station, by making podcasts), but that also produce soci...
The Routledge Companion to Radio and Podcast Studies
This comprehensive companion is a much-needed reference source for the expanding field of radio, audio, and podcast study, taking readers through a diverse range of essays examining the core questions and key debates surrounding radio practices, technologies, industries, policies, resources, histories, and relationships with audiences. Drawing together original essays from well-established and emerging scholars to conceptualize this multidisciplinary field, this book’s global perspective acknowledges radio’s enduring affinity with the local, historical relationship to the national, and its unpredictably transnational reach. In its capacious understanding of what constitutes radio, this c...
Socialism and War
This book recovers the lost history of Spanish socialism during the turbulent years of the Civil War (1936-39). Just as the energy of the socialist movement had sustained the pre-war Second Republic as an experiment in reform, so too it underwrote the Republican war effort in the crucial years of the conflict which would determine Spain's long-term future. Leading Socialist Party (PSOE) cadres formed the bedrock of the government, while thousands of Party and union militants helped bear the tremendous weight of the war effort. The role of the PSOE in the construction of Republican political unity during the Civil War was pivotal. Yet, paradoxically, previous accounts of wartime Republican po...
Liturgy In Migration
Liturgy migrates. That is, liturgical practices, forms, and materials have migrated and continue to migrate across geographic, ethnic, ecclesial, and chronological boundaries. Liturgy in Migration offers the contributions of scholars who took part in the Yale Institute of Sacred Music's 2011 international liturgy conference on this topic. Presenters explored the nature of liturgical migrations and flows, their patterns, directions, and characteristics. Such migrations are always wrapped in their social and cultural contexts. With this in mind, these essays recalibrate, for the twenty-first century, older work on liturgical inculturation. They allow readers to better understand contemporary liturgical flows in the light of important and fascinating migrations of the past.
TELOS 92
Este Dossier central de Telos se dedica a una temática de enorme trascendencia presente y futura para nuestra sociedad: el género y los usos de las TIC. Al igual que en otros ámbitos, en Internet también es posible afirmar la existencia de una brecha de género en detrimento de la mujer en lo que respecta a los usos de la red. Los artículos del dossier muestran algunos ejemplos de ello, al tiempo que alientan a trabajar a favor de la igualdad tecnológica y digital. EL Dossier central, coordinado por Cecilia Castaño, catedrática de Economía Aplicada (Universidad Complutense) y acreditada investigadora en este terreno, se nuclea sobre el call for papers de su autoría publicado en nue...
Radio y medios sociales
La radio se reinventa una vez más. En la era de internet, es un medio expandido,transmite por ondas hertzianas y busca su lugar en redes sociales, telefonía, televisión por suscripción, prensa digital y portales de música. Desde múltiples configuraciones, la radio va en contra de las previsiones más pesimistas, y emerge, cada vez más, como banda sonora de la vida cotidiana, como un espacio de manifestación social, cultural y político donde no solo podemos escuchar los sonidos del mundo, del país y de la ciudad, sino que debemos tratar de hacernos oír.
