Innovations in Journalism
This volume explores innovations in journalism: the goals and expectations associated with them, promoting and hindering framework conditions, and their social and industrial impact. Drawing on an international research project conducted in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Spain, and the UK, the book takes a complex approach, considering media policy preconditions and social impact of journalistic innovation from a comparative perspective. The key findings are examined and presented on different levels: theoretical, methodological, and - as the focus - empirical. Having identified the most relevant innovations in each of the five countries, a total of 100 case studies are examined to explore t...
The Future of Newspapers
The future of newspapers is hotly contested. Pessimistic pundits predict their imminent demise while others envisage a new era of participatory journalism online, with yet others advocating increased investment "in quality journalism" rather than free gifts and DVDs, as the necessary cure for the current parlous state of newspapers. Globally, newspapers confront highly variable prospects reflecting their location in different market sectors, countries and journalism cultures. But despite this diversity, they face similar challenges in responding to the increased competition from expansive radio and 24 hour television news channels; the emergence of free "Metro" papers; the delivery of news s...
Media and Change Management
Change management is not just affected globally by environmental and social conditions, including political and technological changes, but also through convergence, which helps conceptualize change over the past decades. The media industry, in particular, is being challenged by the rise of social media, the crisis of refinancing especially for quality news media, the ‘misinformation epidemic’, and the changing role of legacy media. The evolving nature of media usage and communication, the rise of produsage and influencers, and intermediaries and their personalized algorithmic content are also factors that impact the industry, along with data privacy and privacy management, and the “new...

The Emotions and Cultural Analysis
Amidst prevailing debates that construe rationality and emotionality as polar opposites, this book explores the manner in which emotions shape not only prevailing conceptions of rationality, but also culture in general terms, making room for us to speak of an 'emotional culture' specific to late-modern societies. Presenting case studies involving cultural artefacts, narratives found in fictional and non-fictional literature and television programs, speech patterns and self-talk, fashion, and social networking practices, The Emotions and Cultural Analysis sheds light on the relationship between emotion and culture and the ways in which emotion can be harnessed for the purposes of cultural analysis. An interdisciplinary volume containing the latest research from sociology, philosophy, literary studies, linguistics, and communication, this book will be of interest to those working on the sociology and philosophy of emotion, cultural studies, and cultural theory.
Todos, todo
Consumimos noticias en las mismas plataformas sociales que nos avisan de los cumpleaños de nuestros amigos, que a su vez nos reenvían información interesante de medios que ni siquiera conocíamos. ¿Podíamos pensar que estas nuevas rutinas informativas no afectarían al periodismo? Todos, todo. Manual de periodismo, participación y tecnología esboza oportunidades para los futuros comunicadores, desgranando las claves del entorno mediático. Cómo son las narrativas digitales emergentes, cuáles son las técnicas de verificación online o cómo se puede lograr la implicación de una comunidad en torno a un cibermedio son algunas de las cuestiones que se plantean en este libro. Pero además de preguntas, la obra ofrece respuestas, fruto de la observación de los profundos cambios sistémicos en el uso, el consumo y la difusión de información. En un ecosistema saturado, donde TODOS tienen la posibilidad de ser un medio, solo los usos más responsables, creativos y profesionales marcarán la diferencia.

Comunicar en la Sociedad Red
Internet está modificando el modo en que trabajamos y aprendemos, cómo nos comunicamos y nos relacionamos, adquiriendo una centralidad cada vez mayor en nuestras vidas. La Sociedad Red, como apunta Manuel Castells, no solo se basa en el desarrollo de la tecnología, sino en cómo surgen nuevas formas de interacción en la política, la cultura, la economía, la educación y las relaciones humanas. Este manual pretende actualizar las teorías de la comunicación en el nuevo ecosistema mediático de la Sociedad Red: medios que han perdido el monopolio informativo; contenidos adaptados a los intereses de usuarios activos; redes donde compartir, investigar y conspirar; periodistas con nuevos perfiles y exigencias. Al hilo de los modelos básicos de la comunicación, la convergencia mediática y las técnicas de desinformación, se exploran los retos que afronta el periodismo en un entorno marcado por el cambio permanente.
Ibn Sab’in of the Ricote Valley; the First and Last Islamic Place in Spain
This book is the outcome of a close study of the Ricote Valley and its famous Sufi Ibn Sab'in. Its purpose is to disclose more of the historical and comparative data. Arab Spaniards have created a glorious human story that lasted for centuries within the scope of the Mediterranean culture. However, a lot of the history of the Ricote Valley is only written in Spanish and still not in English. Andalusian scientists moved from the region of Murcia to the heart of the Islamic world. Their move had quite a deep effect. Among these scientists was the great Sufi philosopher, Muhammad Ibn-'Abdul-Haq known as Ibn- Sab'in (d. 669 H. = 1270 AD), who came from the Ricote Valley. He is the originator of the deep philosophical approach in dealing with highly humanistic Sufi thought, and the author of the magnificent treatise Al-Kalam 'ala Al-Masa'il Al-Siqqilliyya, in which he answered the philosophical questions that Frederick II, the Emperor of Sicily, sent to Muslim scientists in the Mashreq and the Maghreb.
