Multidisciplinary Approaches to the Discourses of Extremism
This collection highlights multidisciplinary approaches toward better understanding the discourses of extremism, exploring the ways in which insights from linguistics and other disciplines might inform each other in enacting meaningful reforms in policy, social media, and education. The volume is divided into three sections, bridging different disciplinary perspectives in examining different dimensions of the language of extremism in case studies from around the world. The first section features contributions on extremist language from a political lens, such as in election campaigns and media discourse. The second section looks at religious extremism and language used for the purposes of jihadist radicalisation and recruitment. A final section reflects on policy development, peace education, and conflict resolution, toward discussing ways to subvert radicalised discourses and future research building on these efforts. This book will be of interest to students and scholars in discourse analysis, language and communication, and language education, as well as related fields such as psychology, political science, and sociology.
Fast Politics
The goal of this book is to show the role of TikTok as a tool for political purposes. To this end, the authors analyse the messages posted on this social medium by political figures and institutions such as politicians and political parties, their impact on political landscapes, as well as the transformation of political communication techniques in order to suit the platform’s features. In the last two years, the exponential growth of TikTok has led an increasing number of politicians and institutions to incorporate it into their communication strategies. The platform displays some very different features from other social media that determine the way in which the content is presented. In ...

Inequalities, Youth, Democracy and the Pandemic
This book brings together studies from various locations to examine the growing social problems that have been brought to the fore by the COVID-19 outbreak.

With attention to inequalities rooted in race and ethnicity, economic conditions, gender, disability, and age, it considers different forms of marginalization and examines the ongoing disjunctions that increasingly characterize contemporary democracies from a multilevel perspective. The book addresses original analyses and approaches from a glo...
Language, Migration and Multilingualism in the Age of Digital Humanities
Located at the intersection of humanities and applied informatics, the fledgling discipline of Digital Humanities is bringing new impulses to the field of (Romance) linguistics. Those are especially productive in the context of migration and heteroglossic practices, which encounter constraining language ideologies in Western societies. The aim of this volume is to critically reflect on both the usefulness and limitations of digitization in different areas and superdiverse contexts of the Spanish-speaking world. Through 11 case studies, it illuminates the digital turn from different theoretical and methodological perspectives, providing a better understanding of the complex interplay between language and digitization.
Soy Macarena
Soy Macarena es el testimonio de una política inclasificable que se abre en canal. Desde su adolescencia rebelde a los casos más importantes como abogada del Estado. Su ascenso y caída en política. Las cicatrices de la exposición mediática. El retrato pormenorizado de la deriva de Vox hasta su control por el ala ultra, y la participación de Santiago Abascal, Jorge Buxadé, o Kiko Méndez-Monasterio, entre otros nombres propios. Un documento fundamental para comprender el funcionamiento interno de Vox y su evolución.
«Estas páginas son la autopsia de mi cadáver político. Todo lo que aquí se relata es producto de la digestión de unos hechos que, mientras se sucedían, nunca pude analizar al completo, ya fuera por falta de olfato político, de información o fruto de mi ensoñamiento e incansable trabajo, que no me permitía pararme en lo que yo creía que eran nimiedades. Estos capítulos constituyen la reconstrucción de una historia que viví en penumbra, a la que ahora trato de arrojar luz. Muchos han querido contar su versión, ahí va la mía».

Don't fuck the police
Por qué en España estamos perdiendo la batalla contra la violencia y el crimen
«España no está preparada para afrontar la nueva delincuencia que se ha impuesto en buena parte de Europa».
«Todo va bien. Nada discute el mensaje. Nadie discute el mensaje. Pobre del que discuta el mensaje».
En la era digital y globalizada, la delincuencia se ha extendido y profesionalizado con una fuerza y velocidad desconocidas, pero el modelo policial encargado de combatirla permanece desfasado, paralizado por el miedo y la corrección política. Mientras que el poder político se ha ocupado durante décadas de proteger sus intereses antes que los de los ciudadanos, impidien...
L'erosione
A Puławy, comune polacco «lgbt-free», un ventenne si nasconde ogni giorno dalle ronde di nazisti a caccia di omosessuali. A Varsavia, i giudici non filogovernativi vengono aggrediti in strada e perseguitati da molti colleghi in tribunale. A Cracovia, un giornalista della tv pubblica si è dimesso perché stanco di fare servizi proni al regime, e ora rischia un processo-farsa. In tutta la Polonia l'aborto è illegale e chi aiuta una donna in difficoltà rischia il carcere. In Ungheria, una sedicenne può essere fermata da un poliziotto che vuole arrestarla per «propaganda gender» perché ha un arcobaleno sullo zainetto. Sono solo alcune delle storie che Tonia Mastrobuoni, corrispondente ...
