      The construction of public opinion in a digital age

      The construction of public opinion in a digital age

      by Catherine Happer

      This book presents a new conceptual model for understanding the role of the media in the construction of public knowledge, belief and opinion in the context of a radically changed communications infrastructure. Drawing on a series of empirical studies conducted over nearly a decade, Happer deploys evidence of a 'disconnect' between neoliberal media and the public which is rooted in a disaffection with a mainstream political culture which has failed to deliver the societal outcomes promised. As people are pushed towards alternative digital sources, new communities of opinion are produced in ways which polarise publics and ultimately limit the potential for social change. Offering an innovative and urgently needed new sociological analysis, this book is required reading for an inter-disciplinary field of media, journalism, and politics/IR which has largely abandoned questions of media power and public opinion management, as well as policymakers, science communicators and journalists. Key points of the book: 1) public opinion formation and why people may come to different positions through the development of a new model 2) the societal outcomes produced when a widespread disconnect between journalism and public opinion emerges 3) the atomisation of opinion and its relations to newly constructed opinion communities (with consideration of the role of class) 4) the turn to digitally available alternatives which enable new, less visible power agents to exert control.

      Our history is memory. Collective biographies.

      by Myriam Carmen Pinto

      These stories and testimonies address experiences of struggles that took place within Chile during the Popular Unity government, the civil-military dictatorship, and the post-dictatorship period. Together, they construct a collective memory that reveals the repressive scaffolding of a terrorist state; individual and collective experiences, and lessons learned in exile; the process of rearticulating the social fabric and the return of the historical left; rejection of the model and environmental destruction and commodification of rights; the continued relevance of Allendism and new actors, including a human rights institutional framework, relatives of genocidal perpetrators, citizenship, and a living memorial militancy for truth, justice, the value of democracy, and social peace

      How we save our digital sovereignty

      by Björn Staschen

      — Who is behind the big platforms, what are their alternatives and why do algorithms contribute to polarisation? — A contribution to the discussion on current media policy in the EU It's a paradox: thanks to the countless platforms and channels that are around today, it has never been so easy to express your opinion. And yet never before have so few people decided on the rules of these platforms. Never before has the free formation of opinion, which is essential for our democracies, been in so much danger. And never before have the signs of recognising this been so obvious. So what needs to be done? In a controversial discourse on the effects of TikTok, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and the rest, Björn Staschen reveals how we are slowly losing our freedom – and how we can get it back again.

      The use of entomopathogenic nematodes in pest control strategies, along with bacteria, fungi, and actinomycetes, is a promising approach to combating plant parasitic nematodes. The book "Beneficial Nematodes and Nematode Antagonistic Bioagents" is divided into two sections. The first section (chapters 1 to 16) covers the isolation, identification, molecular characterization, mass multiplication, formulations, and shelf life of bacteria, fungi, and actinomycetes. The second section (chapters 17 to 24) focuses on the isolation, identification, mass culturing of insect hosts, and mass multiplication, formulations, and field potential of entomopathogenic nematodes against economically important insect pests.

      Excellent Revels text now back in print at the new £9.99 price. Leading edition of this play by Ben Jonson - no other edition of this calibre at the moment. Professor Anthony Parr has a proven track record with the Three Jacobean Travel Plays (now in paperback at £14.99). The complete canon of Ben Jonson is being brought back into print in the Revels. The play itself is one of Jonson's best and has a prescient storyline about journalism being traduced and becoming entertainment instead of remaining factual. ;
