    No Bounds 11——13.10.19 Event Programme Music, Art, Film screen- ings, Talks Workshops Introduction Joe Muggs Optimism isn’t really in fashion, and understandably so. We’re overwhelmed by populists, scammers, liars, Fascists, fools of the worst sort, and earnest attempts to counter this takeover are themselves all too often taken over by further Fascists, fools and saviours with feet of clay. The world is burning and melting around us, and we seem to be volunteering to put in hours of labour for free and live under constant surveillance – indeed we even seem to be willing to pay for the privilege. Debt is normality, the lie of austerity is normality, slaughter and torture being beamed into our personal timelines is normality, withering irony and pompous righteousness as cloaks for the worst and most hateful views are normality. Meanwhile in the cultural sphere, recorded music is so devalued that any of the big four tech giants could buy the entire global music industry with the loose change down the back of their sofas, and the only reason they don’t is that it’s not worth the hassle. But – and it’s a big but [“big butt” – Beavis & Butthead cackle] – somehow there’s a lot going on that is pumped full of hope. Not hope in the save-the-world sense, mind. OK there’s some of that around, but even Greta Thunberg’s rhetoric is shot through with a huge amount of bleakness. But small scale, human level stuff where little things that people do in themselves make looking a week, a month, a year forward seem not just bearable but – in the moment at least – exciting.

Challenge: Beat back the opposition in the information war. The election of Donald Trump would not have been possible without a dedicated social media influence campaign from Russia, fueled by data that was mined by Cambridge Analytica with the explicit purpose of stoking fears and hatred, and amplified by Russian bot armies and amoral conservative media outlets that routinely propagated lies to the American people. Donald Trump outspent Hillary Clinton 13:1 on social media, because his campaign understood that digital is the new frontier of campaigning, 24/7/365. They bombarded American eyeballs with images, videos and propaganda. It worked. Thus, foreign and domestic actors conspired to advance on the social media landscape before it even became a battlefield in the new information war. If the left continues to cede digital territory, it will be overtaken. We must advance and fight back by building our own digital army and spreading intentional, strategic messages that advance truth and progress. Unfortunately, traditional media outlets are terrible at this. For one, they are profit-driven and prone to pushing click-bait faux-news that distracts attention from important stories.

  • Donald Trump and the 2018 Midterm Battle for Central New York Luke Perry Palgrave Studies in US Elections
    PALGRAVE STUDIES IN US ELECTIONS SERIES EDITOR: LUKE PERRY Donald Trump and the 2018 Midterm Battle for Central New York Luke Perry Palgrave Studies in US Elections Series Editor Luke Perry Utica College Utica, NY, USA This Pivot series, established in collaboration with the Utica College Center of Public Affairs and Election Research, brings together cutting-­ edge work in US Politics focused on trends and issues surrounding local, state, and federal elections. Books in this series may cover but are not limited to topics such as voting behavior, campaign management, policy considerations, electoral social movements, and analysis of significant races. While welcoming all projects on US elections within and across all three levels of government, this series proceeds from the truism that all politics is fundamentally local. As such, we are especially interested in research on state and local elections such as mayoral races, gubernatorial races, and congressional elections, with particular focus on how state/ local electoral trends influence national electoral politics, and vice versa. This series is open to any relevant scholar and all methodological approaches.

  • RESIST, PERSIST, and TRANSFORM: the EMERGENCE and IMPACT of GRASSROOTS RESISTANCE GROUPS OPPOSING the TRUMP PRESIDENCY* Leah E
    RESIST, PERSIST, AND TRANSFORM: THE EMERGENCE AND IMPACT OF GRASSROOTS RESISTANCE GROUPS OPPOSING THE TRUMP PRESIDENCY* Leah E. Gose and Theda Skocpol† The November 2016 election sparked nationwide resistance to the new Trump administration and Republican Congress. Initial studies have focused on public protests and professionally staffed advocacy organizations, but the resistance also includes thousands of volunteer-led grassroots groups. This article uses data from online surveys, fieldwork observations and interviews, and web searches to analyze the development, demographics, and activities of grassroots resistance groups located in multiple states as well as all parts of Pennsylvania. Starting right after the 2016 election, local resistance groups were founded in places of all sizes and partisan orientations through friendships and social media contacts. Most of their members and leaders are middle-class, college-educated white women. Groups have reached out to surrounding communities, generating and supporting candidates for local, state, and national public offices; and many participants seek to join and reform local Democratic Party organizations. With polls predicting a win for America’s first female president, excitement built with the approach of Election Day, November 8, 2016. On October 20, “Pantsuit Nation” was launched as an invitation-only Facebook group coordinated by Libby Chamberlain, a college counselor based in Maine who wanted a site where members, overwhelmingly women, could share joyful anticipation (Correal 2016; Ohlheiser 2016). Some 2.5 million people quickly signed up, often posting pictures of mothers and daughters dressed in pantsuits. On Election Day itself, people posted emotional accounts of heading to the polls. Hours later the euphoria came crashing down when Hillary Clinton fell short in the Electoral College and Donald Trump won the presidency.

  • How Democrats Win
    Dedicated to the strategic liberals who took back the House in 2018 Slow and steady wins the race. —Aesop, 600 BC Acknowledgments For three years, Arlin Weinberger has been my constant sounding board, constructive critic, and light-handed copy edi- tor, all of which has made the process of discovery far more enjoyable, and the difficulties of writing, less daunting. My copyeditor Karel Kramer took on the nearly impossible job of turning a mountain of excess detail into something read- able and, when I let her, into something enjoyable. And many thanks to my proofreader Bob Cooper who brought consisten- cy to my experimental approach to all things grammatical. Remaining errors are due to my late changes. Thanks also for many helpful comments and pointers from James Weinberger, John Ballard, Judi and Hardy Dawainis, Carl Fuchshuber, Charlie Carlson, Pete Ordway, Dick Che- ville, Nic Wood, and Tim Aaronson.
