From Grassroots Activism to Disinformation
This book reflects on the role of social media in the past two decades in Southeast Asia. It traces the emergence of social media discourse in Southeast Asia, and its potential as a “liberation technology” in both democratizing and authoritarian states. It explains the growing decline in internet freedom and increasingly repressive and manipulative use of social media tools by governments, and argues that social media is now an essential platform for control. The contributors detail the increasing role of “disinformation” and “fake news” production in Southeast Asia, and how national governments are creating laws which attempt to address this trend, but which often exacerbate the situation of state control. From Grassroots Activism to Disinformation explores three main questions: How did social media begin as a vibrant space for grassroots activism to becoming a tool for disinformation? Who were the main actors in this transition: governments, citizens or the platforms themselves? Can reformists “reclaim” the digital public sphere? And if so, how?

Ilmu Sosial di Indonesia
Kita berefleksi untuk mendapatkan gambaran masa depan yang lebih baik. Sejak reformasi kita belum melihat kembali wajah kita, sudah banyak buku yang menunjukan wajah sedih, marah, terluka, juga wajah yang menantang masa depan. Akan tetapi sisi akademis terlewatkan, karena kita jarang mempertanyakan diri kita dalam keilmuan dan kaitannya dengan masa depan kita. Padahal sudah banyak lembaga pendidikan dan penelitian, negeri dan swasta, juga pendidikan berkembang baik, bahkan skema-skema beasiswa dalam dan luar negeri pun sudah kembali terbuka. Di sisi lain, kita masih melihat kemiskinan, kesenjangan antarjender, tidak berkembangnya kota dan desa, nilai rupiah cenderung turun, dan masalah lingk...
PEREMPUAN DAN LITERASI DIGITAL
Buku ini memberikan gambaran tentang perempuan yang kurang mendapatkan manfaat dari teknologi yang berkembang.

Research Themes for Events
This book was conceived to fill a gap in the study of events and festivity with a research-oriented events management text. The book focuses on exposing underpinning theoretical frameworks and draws upon international case studies to help explain various event phenomena. It intentionally considers events from a research perspective, generating insights into the principal methodological approaches employed to produce empirical data while drawing attention to the future research needs of the field of event management. The book begins with an exploration of the social issues, impacts and developments in events research; it then moves on to analysing economic and management aspects surrounding research into the events industry, addresses issues of technology and tools and concludes with more political and policy-oriented chapters to highlight research into the main debates in the public sector and sphere. The book has 15 chapters and a subject index.--
Ordinary People and the Media
The ′demotic turn′ is a term coined by Graeme Turner to describe the increasing visibility of the ′ordinary person′ in the media today. In this dynamic and insightful book he explores the ′whys′ and ′hows′ of the ′everyday′ individual′s willingness to turn themselves into media content through: · Celebrity culture, · Reality TV, · DIY websites, · Talk radio, · User-generated materials online. Initially proposed in order to analyse the pervasiveness of celebrity culture, this book further develops the idea of the demotic turn as a means of examining the common elements in a range of ′hot spots′ in debates within media and cultural studies today. Refuting the pro...
Framing Celebrity
Celebrity culture has a pervasive presence in our everyday lives – perhaps more so than ever before. It shapes not simply the production and consumption of media content but also the social values through which we experience the world. This collection analyses this phenomenon, bringing together essays which explore celebrity across a range of media, cultural and political contexts. The authors investigate topics such as the intimacy of fame, political celebrity, stardom in American ‘quality’ television (Sarah Jessica Parker), celebrity 'reality' TV (I’m a Celebrity ... Get Me Out of Here!), the circulation of the porn star, the gallery film (David/David Beckham), the concept of carto...
The Spectacle 2.0
Spectacle 2.0 recasts Debord's theory of spectacle within the frame of 21st century digital capitalism. It offers a reassessment of Debord’s original notion of Spectacle from the late 1960s, of its posterior revisitation in the 1990s, and it presents a reinterpretation of the concept within the scenario of contemporary informational capitalism and more specifically of digital and media labour. It is argued that the Spectacle 2.0 form operates as the interactive network that links through one singular (but contradictory) language and various imaginaries, uniting diverse productive contexts such as logistics, finance, new media and urbanism. Spectacle 2.0 thus colonizes most spheres of socia...
Cult Collectors
Cult Collectors examines cultures of consumption and the fans who collect cult film and TV merchandise. Author Lincoln Geraghty argues that there has been a change in the fan convention space, where collectible merchandise and toys, rather than just the fictional text, have become objects for trade, nostalgia, and a focal point for fans’ personal narratives. New technologies also add to this changing identity of cult fandom whereby popular websites such as eBay and ThinkGeek become cyber sites of memory and profit for cult fan communities. The book opens with an analysis of the problematic representations of fans and fandom in film and television. Stereotypes of the fan and collector as po...
