Book Description
La cultura es un fenómeno muy dinámico, cambiante y sujeto a múltiples interpretaciones. Esto provoca que, en muchas ocasiones, las afirmaciones y los debates sobre la cultura tengan un carácter ambiguo y confuso. En este sentido, las ciencias sociales han desarrollado teorías y nociones que pretenden aclarar los límites y contenidos del concepto de cultura y las relaciones con los ámbitos social, económico o político. Asimismo, las relaciones entre la cultura y la sociedad tampoco son estables y han cambiado de forma considerable desde los primeros análisis de las ciencias sociales en el siglo XIX hasta la actualidad. Por lo tanto, es necesario establecer las diferentes etapas y características que marcan los usos y las interpretaciones sociales de la cultura. El presente libro pretende ser una introducción a la compleja cuestión del papel de la cultura en la sociedad contemporánea. Para ello, se analizan las principales transformaciones en el consumo y las prácticas culturales en la era digital, proporcionando al lector las teorías, conceptos y estudios de caso necesarios para comprender las dinámicas culturales y creativas en su pluralidad, desde la alta cultura característica de la modernidad hasta los fenómenos virales de internet.

Cultural Policy in Ibero-America
Author: Arturo Rodríguez Morató
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 100002251X
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 192
Book Description
This book provides a broad overview of the development of Ibero-American cultural policy in an important and innovative way. This volume brings together specialists in the field, from different nations and disciplines, and provides the keys to understanding the different trajectories and experiences of some significant countries in the area on both sides of the Atlantic; the recent developments in this domain such as urban cultural regeneration policies and cultural development policies; and the dynamics of policy transfers such as cultural diplomacy. The book also contrasts the applicability and the explanatory power of the idea of the family of nations for the analysis of cultural policy with models inspired by the welfare regimes. This book allows international researchers an overarching view of the peculiarities and the latest achievements in the field of Ibero-American cultural policy. This book was originally published as a special issue of the International Journal of Cultural Policy.

Centers and Peripheries in Knowledge Production
Author: Leandro Rodriguez Medina
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1135021791
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 263
Book Description
This book examines the circulation of knowledge within globalization, focusing on the differences between centers and peripheries of knowledge production in the social sciences. It explores not only how knowledge is appropriated in peripheral fields but also how foreign ideas shape those fields and the trajectories of scholars, and uses actor-network theory to explain circulation of knowledge as an extension of socio-technical networks that transcend borders.

Author: Paulo M. Barroso
Publisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing
ISBN: 1527560880
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 428
Book Description
This book is about communication, a universal, yet particular, form of linking people and ideas.

It will also serve to stimulate critical thinking. The book is structured as a compendium of the sociology of communication, providing a practical and pedagogical-didactic resource especially for students, including case studies, summary-tables, questions for review, and excerpts from selected works and authors. This book is a major contribution to cultural, media, and digital studies, and will be of interest to those who live in an increasingly digital, technological, and global society, and want to understand a phenomenon as social as it is inevitable, spontaneous, and influential.

Digital Political Participation, Social Networks and Big Data
Author: José Manuel Robles-Morales
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030277577
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 152
Book Description
This book explores the changes in political communication in light of the development of a public opinion mediated by web 2.0 technologies. One of the most important changes in political communication is related to the process of disintermediation, i.e. the process by which digital technologies allow citizens to compete in the public space with those agents who, traditionally, co-opted public opinion. However, while disintermediation has undeniably generated a number of advances, having linked citizens to the public debate, the authors highlight some aspects where disintermediation is moving away from a rational and inclusive public space. They argue that these aspects, related to the immediacy, polarization and incivility of the communication, obscure the possibilities for democratization of digital political communication.

The Representation of Workers in the Digital Era
Author: Raquel Rego
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3031046528
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 200
Book Description
This book compiles empirical evidence on both the challenges raised by neo-liberal policies and the internet to trade unions, and the development of more flexible forms of worker organisation and collective representation. The relationship with digital devices seems inevitably to contribute to differentiating trends, simultaneously acting as an internal and external constraint on organisation. Gathering academics and experts from European and Brazilian universities, this book is recommended for researchers and students in the fields of sociology of work, labour studies and collective action, as well as practitioners and others interested in worker interest organisations and collective representation in the early 21st Century.
