Cultures of Transparency
This volume addresses the major questions surrounding a concept that has become ubiquitous in the media and in civil society as well as in political and economic discourses in recent years, and which is demanded with increasing frequency: transparency. How can society deal with increasing and often diverging demands and expectations of transparency? What role can different political and civil society actors play in processes of producing, or preventing, transparency? Where are the limits of transparency and how are these boundaries negotiated? What is the relationship of transparency to processes of social change, as well as systems of social surveillance and control? Engaging with transparency as an interrelated product of law, politics, economics and culture, this interdisciplinary volume explores the ambiguities and contradictions, as well as the social and political dilemmas, that the age of transparency has unleashed. As such it will appeal to researchers across the social sciences and humanities with interests in politics, history, sociology, civil society, citizenship, public policy, criminology and law.
Televisão e cinema
A partir de um enfoque diverso, a coletânea Televisão e cinema: o audiovisual contemporâneo em múltiplas vertentes reúne contribuições de pesquisadores em comunicação oriundos de universidades de diversas regiões do Brasil, voltando-se para a análise tanto de mídias já consolidadas quanto de experiências ainda em processo de amadurecimento.

Digital Platforms and the Global South
This book addresses the issues raised by digital platforms in the Global South, with an emphasis on the cultural stakes involved. It brings together an interdisciplinary team of researchers – including political economists, socio-economists, geographers, media sociologists or anthropologists – who each explore these issues through an insightful case study at a local, national, regional or international scale. While studying the strategies of some of the main US-based Big Tech platforms or video streaming platforms towards the Global South, the chapters also consider the often-neglected active role local or regional actors play in the expansion of those Western digital players, and highli...
Por que os homens não se rebelam? Aquiescência e Política em Antonio Gramsci
Aquiescência. Não poderia ter tido melhor escolha terminológica o jovem e promissor autor desse livro escrito com limpidez e perspicácia para retratar uma situação generalizada no Brasil e no mundo. Resgatado com análises de autores e teorias políticas modernas e contemporâneas o significado desse conceito ganha surpreendente atualidade nas ponderadas páginas que desenvolvem sua argumentação. Como um bom investigador, Victor Gomes detecta sinais inquietantes da “era da aquiescência” vivenciada por consideráveis setores da população que pautam seu comportamento no consentimento tácito, na cumplicidade silenciosa e na “servidão voluntária” à estrutura de poder insta...
