  • Digital Platform As a Double-Edged Sword: How to Interpret Cultural Flows in the Platform Era
    International Journal of Communication 11(2017), 3880–3898 1932–8036/20170005 Digital Platform as a Double-Edged Sword: How to Interpret Cultural Flows in the Platform Era DAL YONG JIN Simon Fraser University, Canada This article critically examines the main characteristics of cultural flows in the era of digital platforms. By focusing on the increasing role of digital platforms during the Korean Wave (referring to the rapid growth of local popular culture and its global penetration starting in the late 1990s), it first analyzes whether digital platforms as new outlets for popular culture have changed traditional notions of cultural flows—the forms of the export and import of popular culture mainly from Western countries to non-Western countries. Second, it maps out whether platform-driven cultural flows have resolved existing global imbalances in cultural flows. Third, it analyzes whether digital platforms themselves have intensified disparities between Western and non- Western countries. In other words, it interprets whether digital platforms have deepened asymmetrical power relations between a few Western countries (in particular, the United States) and non-Western countries. Keywords: digital platforms, cultural flows, globalization, social media, asymmetrical power relations Cultural flows have been some of the most significant issues in globalization and media studies since the early 20th century. From television programs to films, and from popular music to video games, cultural flows as a form of the export and import of cultural materials have been increasing. Global fans of popular culture used to enjoy films, television programs, and music by either purchasing DVDs and CDs or watching them on traditional media, including television and on the big screen.

  • {PDF} the Facebook Effect: the Real Inside Story of Mark Zuckerberg
    THE FACEBOOK EFFECT: THE REAL INSIDE STORY OF MARK ZUCKERBERG AND THE WORLDS FASTEST GROWING COMPANY PDF, EPUB, EBOOK David Kirkpatrick | 384 pages | 01 Feb 2011 | Ebury Publishing | 9780753522752 | English | London, United Kingdom The Facebook Effect: The Real Inside Story of Mark Zuckerberg and the Worlds Fastest Growing Company PDF Book The cover of the plus-page hardcover tome is the silhouette of a face made of mirror-like, reflective paper. Not bad for a Harvard dropout who later became a visionary and technologist of this digital era. Using the kind of computer code otherwise used to rank chess players perhaps it could also have been used for fencers , he invited users to compare two different faces of the same sex and say which one was hotter. View all 12 comments. There was a lot of time for bull sessions, which tended to center on what kind of software should happen next on the Internet. He searched around online and found a hosting company called Manage. Even for those not so keen on geekery and computers, the political wrangling of the company supplies plenty of drama. As Facebook spreads around the globe, it creates surprising effects—even becoming instrumental in political protests from Colombia to Iran. But there are kinks in the storytelling. In little more than half a decade, Facebook has gone from a dorm-room novelty to a company with million users. Sheryl Sandberg, COO: Sandberg is an elegant, slightly hyper, light-spirited forty- year-old with a round face whose bobbed black hair reaches just past her shoulders.

  • Social Media Platforms and Democratic Discourse
    LCB_23_4_Art_6_Weaver (Do Not Delete) 2/7/2020 2:22 PM SYMPOSIUM SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS AND DEMOCRATIC DISCOURSE by Russell L. Weaver* This Essay explores how social media platforms have been catalysts for social and political change but have created numerous societal problems. The Essay traces the development of speech technologies and shows how these platforms have influenced the world. These changes are evident in the events of the Arab Spring in the Middle East and even in U.S. political elections (including those of President Obama and President Trump). At the same time, the internet and social media present immense challenges to the democratic process. They have enabled individuals to infect the public debate with so-called “fake news,” and have enabled foreign individuals and foreign governments to in- terfere in the U.S. election. In addition, as social media companies endeavor to exercise greater control over the public debate, there is a risk that they will censor or unduly restrict social and political discourse.

  • 4.5.1 Los Abducidos: El Duro Retorno En Expediente X Se Duda De Si Las
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Diposit Digital de Documents de la UAB 4.5.1 Los abducidos: El duro retorno En Expediente X se duda de si las abducciones son obra de humanos o de extraterrestres por lo menos hasta el momento en que Mulder es abducido al final de la Temporada 7. La duda hace que el encuentro con otras personas que dicen haber sido abducidas siempre tenga relevancia para Mulder, Scully o ambos, como se puede ver con claridad en el caso de Cassandra Spender. Hasta que él mismo es abducido se da la paradójica situación de que quien cree en la posibilidad de la abducción es él mientras que Scully, abducida en la Temporada 2, siempre duda de quién la secuestró, convenciéndose de que los extraterrestres son responsables sólo cuando su compañero desaparece (y no necesariamente en referencia a su propio rapto). En cualquier caso poco importa en el fondo si el abducido ha sido víctima de sus congéneres humanos o de alienígenas porque en todos los casos él o ella cree –con la singular excepción de Scully– que sus raptores no son de este mundo. Como Leslie Jones nos recuerda, las historias de abducción de la vida real que han inspirado este aspecto de Expediente X “expresan una nueva creencia, tal vez un nuevo temor: a través de la experimentación sin emociones realizada por los alienígenas usando cuerpos humanos adquiridos por la fuerza, se demuestra que el hombre pertenece a la naturaleza, mientras que los extraterrestres habitan una especie de supercultura.” (Jones 94).

[…] We use the word culture in these two senses: to mean a whole way of life – the common meanings; to mean the arts and learning – the special processes of discovery and creative effort.” Raymond Williams, 1958 A dissertation is ordinary, too. Writing a dissertation is possible only because of the great number of people, who make up our lives. That is why I first thank my partner Hannah. Her willingness to live with me in a foreign country, to never doubt the reasoning behind my plans, her strength and her courage to engage even the most challenging situations, has been a daily inspiration. During the last four years I could always count on my parents's unquestioned support for this project, their patience and worldly wisdom. I own my confidence to them. My gratitude goes to both Hannah's and my family for their love and support, especially once our wonderful daughter Johanna Karlotta made focussing on academic work just a little bit more challenging. Finally, I would like to thank our friends in Minnesota for making our lives abroad enlightening, fun, and enjoyable.

DR. PIETER VERDEGEM COMMISSARIS: (PROF.) DR. SOFIE VAN BAUWEL ACADEMIEJAAR 2013 – 2014 1 Deze pagina is niet beschikbaar omdat ze persoonsgegevens bevat. Universiteitsbibliotheek Gent, 2021. This page is not available because it contains personal information. Ghent Universit , Librar , 2021. Abstract Deze studie focust op identiteitsconstructie op Facebook. De onderzoeksvraag is wat identiteit op Facebook betekent en op welke manieren we deze identiteit construeren. We vertrekken vanuit de inzichten van enkele academici en theoretici zoals Rogers (1951), Higgens (1987), Mead (1934), Blumer (1969), Cooley (1964), Giddens (1991), Bourdieu (1984) en Turkle (1995b, 1994a, 1999). Hun standpunten op identiteit passen we toe op de online omgeving van Facebook. Centraal echter staan de dramaturgische standpunten van Goffman (1959) uit The Presentation of Self in Everyday Life. De gebruikte methode is een literatuurstudie die uitlegt wat identiteit is en verder nagaat hoe we op een sociale netwerksite als Facebook onszelf presenteren en een online identiteit construeren. De belangrijkste bevindingen uit deze literatuurstudie zijn dat we onze online identiteit creëren in sociale interactie met anderen en dat die anderen onze identiteit bevestigen. Wanneer we onszelf op Facebook presenteren, doen we dit door verschillende soorten identiteitsclaims te maken. Enerzijds menen enkelen dat onze online identiteit een performance en een geïdealiseerde versie van onszelf is, anderzijds menen anderen dat dit niet het geval is. Ook moeten we de impressies die we geven en afgeven managen.
