  • From Clicktivism to Hacktivism: Understanding Digital Activism

    From Clicktivism to Hacktivism: Understanding Digital Activism

    Information & Organization, forthcoming 2019 1 From Clicktivism to Hacktivism: Understanding Digital Activism Jordana J. George Dorothy E. Leidner Mays Business School, Texas A&M University Baylor University ABSTRACT Digital activism provides new opportunities for social movement participants and social movement organizations (SMOs). Recent IS research has begun to touch on digital activism, defining it, exploring it, and building new theory to help understand it. This paper seeks to unpack digital activism through an exploratory literature review that provides descriptions, definitions, and categorizations. We provide a framework for digital activism by extending Milbrath’s (1965) hierarchy of political participation that divides activism into spectator, transitional, and gladiatorial activities. Using this framework, we identify ten activities of digital activism that are represented in the literature. These include digital spectator activities: clicktivism, metavoicing, assertion; digital transitional activities: e-funding, political consumerism, digital petitions, and botivism; and digital gladiatorial activities: data activism, exposure, and hacktivism. Last, we analyze the activities in terms of participants, SMOs, individuals who are targeted by the activity, and organizations that are targeted by the activity. We highlight four major implications and offer four meta-conjectures on the mechanisms of digital activism and their resulting impacts, and reveal a new construct where participants digitally organize yet lack an identifying cause, which we label connective emotion. Key Words Digital activism, social activism, political participation, social movements, connective emotion, literature review 1.0 Introduction Not long ago, activism to promote social movements was relegated to demonstrations and marches, chaining oneself to a fence, or writing to a government representative. Recruiting, organizing, and retaining participants was difficult enough to ensure that often only largest, best supported movements thrived and creating an impact often took years.

As homesteaders, hunters, miners and cattle ranchers flooded onto the Plains, they not only came into conflict with the Plains Indians who already lived there, but also with each other. This was a time of robberies, range wars and Indian wars in the wide open spaces of the West. Gradually, the forces of law and order caught up with the lawbreakers, while the US army defeated the Plains Indians.

    301-309. Consumer Activism for Social Change A

    Lightfoot, E. B. (2019). Consumer Activism for Social Change. Social Work, 64(4), 301-309. Consumer Activism for Social Change Abstract Consumer activism, or activism through participating in the market such as through boycotts or ethical shopping, is the most common form of political action in the United States aside from voting. While consumer activism was a popular macro practice social work intervention by social work pioneers and has been an important part of many social change movements, it is rarely discussed formally in the field of social work today. This article provides an overview of consumer activism as a social work intervention, describes historical and twenty-first century examples of consumer activism, discusses the effectiveness of consumer activism, and discusses the strengths and challenges of consumer activism for social workers who engage in it either professionally or personally. This is the unedited Author’s Copy. The published article is: Lightfoot, E. B. (2019). Consumer Activism for Social Change. Social Work, 64(4), 301-309. Lightfoot, E. B. (2019). Consumer Activism for Social Change. Social Work, 64(4), 301-309. Consumer activism is activism taken by consumers through participating in the market. This can involve activities such as choosing to shop for only fair-trade products or boycotting a company because of its labor practices. Consumer activism has a long history in the United States (US), and more than half of US citizens have participated in a form of consumer activism in their lives, with more than a third participating in the past year (Keeter, Zukin, Zndolina & Jenkins, 2002). Aside from voting, consumer activism is the most common way that citizens engage in political participation and is far more common than other types of political engagement, such as contacting legislators, fundraising for charity, taking part in a protest or volunteering for a candidate.

PITA LOOR ABSTRACT This Article explores the immigrant acts of protest during the Obama presidency in opposition to the Secure Communities (SCOMM) immigration enforcement program through the lens of philosopher John Rawls’ theory of civil disobedience and posits that this immigrant resistance contributed to that administration’s dismantling the federal program by progressively moving localities, and eventually whole states, to cease cooperation with SCOMM. The controversial SCOMM program is one of the most powerful tools of immigration enforcement in the new millennium because it transforms any contact with state and local law enforcement into a potential immigration investigation.

As a "bad" badman, a threat to the moral order, the Kid had to die so that civilization-repre­ sented by Sheriff Pat Garrett-could advance. This formula of conflict and resolution by death can be detected in dime novels and early magazine accounts, which dwell on the Kid's unheroic appearance and bloodthirsty char­ acter. After a period of meager interest, by the mid-1920s a quite different figure was being molded by biographers and film makers. This was the prototypical "good" badman, one who personifies a kind of idealism. In Walter Noble Burns's key biography in 1926 and in a 1930 film, the Kid becomes a redeemer who helps small farmers.

  • Is Consumer Activism Economic Democracy?

    Is Consumer Activism Economic Democracy?

    U= !ON=UMER "!;UVU=ME!ONOMU! pEMO!R"!o# _ RZVENRo 7E"VER The Second Gilded Age has also been a golden era for consumer activism. As the nation state and organized labor have both diminished in their ability to translate public attitudes into resource outcomes, civil society groups have turned to a third axis of social power, consumer behavior, to bring multinational corporations to heel. We are witnessing historically high levels of participation in market-based campaigns, boycotts, and conscientious shopping. Recent waves of consumer activism recall the frequent boycotts that characterized the history of the early American labor movement. Yet whether consumer power actually furthers the project of economic democracy—that is, social control over economic production—remains controversial. This Article argues that two forms of consumer activism, which I call organized buying and ethical consumption, differ fundamentally in their democratic potential. Organized buying refers to a targeted effort to use consumer power to achieve a discrete goal; ethical consumption refers to the more diffuse preferences of individual consumers for morally favored goods. I illustrate these distinctions through case studies from food politics: the United Farm Workers’ grape boycotts, and the contemporary market for organic food. Only organized buying, I argue, has the potential to subordinate economic power to democratic control. Ethical consumption, on the other hand, aligns with the market fundamentalist view that all political preferences can and should be satisfied through individual purchasing decisions. Although this Article does not deal with doctrinal questions, a more nuanced understanding of the political economy of consumer activism should inform discussions about product labeling, the regulation of secondary labor activity, and free speech protections for consumer behavior.
