Название: Democracy, America, and the Age of Globalization
Автор: Jay R. Mandle
Издательство: Cambridge University Press
Год: 2007
Формат: pdf
Страниц: 178
Размер: 5 MB
Язык: English
This book addresses the concerns of readers who accept the benefits of globalization and technological change, but seek to reverse the tendency toward income inequality that each produces. Government policies can mitigate that outcome. But policies to offset inequality are not insisted upon by the electorate because the public believes our system of private donations to political campaigns results in the government principally serving the interests of the wealthy. Adopting a system of public funding of electoral campaigns is necessary if egalitarian economic policies are to be adopted.

Название: The War Racket: The Lies, Myths, and Propaganda That Feed the American War Machine
Автор: Harry Browne
Издательство: Nelson Current
Год: 2004
Формат: pdf
Страниц: 627
Размер: 25 MB
Язык: English
This book takes a sharp, unflinching look at the vast deceptions surrounding our country's bloodiest battles. From the Spanish-American War to World War I and II, from Vietnam War to the recent wars in Kosovo, Iraq, and Afghanistan, this book suggests that each war effort has produced three types of deceptions: lies told about alleged threats to America (such as weapons of mass destruction)propaganda during the warand myths that are repeated after the war to help support future aggressionsThe sad fact is most Americans have little or no knowledge about the real motivations behind our nation's devastating wars. This book will change all of that as it uncovers the myriad lies and teaches readers how we can spot further myths, untruths, and manipulations in the war rhetoric of politicians. With the war in Iraq becoming increasingly unpopular, this book will cover a very timely, very urgent topic and put this latest war-and the manipulations surrounding it-in an historical context. | |

Название: Social Networking and Impression Management: Self-Presentation in the Digital Age
Автор: Carolyn Cunningham
Издательство: Lexington Books
Год: 2012
Формат: epub
Страниц: 336
Размер: 787 kB
Язык: English
Social Networking and Impression Management: Self-Presentation in the Digital Age, edited by Carolyn Cunningham, offers critical inquiry into how identity is constructed, deconstructed, performed, and perceived on social networking sites (SNSs), such as Facebook, and LinkedIn. The presentation of identity is key to success or failure in the Information Age, especially because SNSs are becoming the dominant form of communication among Internet users. The architecture of SNSs provide opportunities to ask questions such as who am I; what matters to me; and, how do I want others to perceive me? Original research studies in this collection utilize both quantitative and qualitative methods to study a range of issues related to identity management on SNSs including authenticity, professional uses of SNSs, LGBTQ identities, and psychological and cultural impacts. Together, the contributors to this volume draw on current research in the field and offer new theoretical frameworks and research methods to further the conversation on impression management and SNSs, making this text essential for both students and scholars of social media.

Название: The Emancipation of Biblical Philology in the Dutch Republic, 1590-1670
Автор: Dirk van Miert
Издательство: Oxford University Press
Год: 2018
Формат: pdf
Страниц: 320
Размер: 6 MB
Язык: English
The Emancipation of Biblical Philology in the Dutch Republic, 1590-1670argues that the application of tools, developed in the study of ancient Greek and Latin authors, to the Bible was aimed at stabilizing the biblical text but had the unintentional effect that the text grew more and more unstable. Baruch Spinoza (1632-1677) capitalized on this tradition in his notoriousTheological-political Treatise(1670). However, the foundations on which his radical biblical scholarship is built were laid by Reformed philologists who started from the hermeneutical assumption that philology was the servant of reformed dogma. On the basis of this principle, they pushed biblical scholarship to the center of historical studies during the first half of the seventeenth century.Dirk van Miert shows how Jacob Arminius, Franciscus Gomarus, the translators and revisers of the States' Translation, Daniel Heinsius, Hugo Grotius, Claude Saumaise, Isaac de La Peyrere, and Isaac Vossius all drew on techniques developed by classical scholars of Renaissance humanism, notably Joseph Scaliger, who devoted themselves to the study of manuscripts, (oriental) languages, and ancient history. Van Miert assesses and compares the accomplishments of these scholars in textual criticism, the analysis of languages, and the reconstruction of political and cultural historical contexts, highlighting that their methods were closely linked.

Название: Restricted Access: Media, Disability, and the Politics of Participation
Автор: Elizabeth Ellcessor
Издательство: NYU Press
Год: 2016
Формат: pdf
Страниц: 262
Размер: 6 MB
Язык: English
How reconsidering digital media and participatory cultures from the standpoint of disability allows for a full understanding of accessibility. While digital media can offer many opportunities for civic and cultural participation, this technology is not equally easy for everyone to use. Hardware, software, and cultural expectations combine to make some technologies an easier fit for some bodies than for others. A YouTube video without closed captions or a social network site that is incompatible with a screen reader can restrict the access of users who are hard of hearing or visually impaired. Often, people with disabilities require accommodation, assistive technologies, or other forms of aid to make digital media accessible—useable—for them. Restricted Access investigates digital media accessibility—the processes by which media is made usable by people with particular needs—and argues for the necessity of conceptualizing access in a way that will enable greater participation in all forms of mediated culture. Drawing on disability and cultural studies, Elizabeth Ellcessor uses an interrogatory framework based around issues of regulation, use, content, form, and experience to examine contemporary digital media. Through interviews with policy makers and accessibility professionals, popular culture and archival materials, and an ethnographic study of internet use by people with disabilities, Ellcessor reveals the assumptions that undergird contemporary technologies and participatory cultures. Restricted Access makes the crucial point that if digital media open up opportunities for individuals to create and participate, but that technology only facilitates the participation of those who are already privileged, then its progressive potential remains unrealized. Engagingly written with powerful examples, Ellcessor demonstrates the importance of alternate uses, marginalized voices, and invisible innovations in the context of disability identities to push us to rethink digital media accessibility.

Название: Music and the Armenian Diaspora: Searching for Home in Exile
Автор: Sylvia Angelique Alajaji
Издательство: Indiana University Press
Год: 2015
Формат: pdf
Страниц: 216
Размер: 6 MB
Язык: English
Survivors of the Armenian genocide of 1915 and their descendants have used music to adjust to a life in exile and counter fears of obscurity. In this nuanced and richly detailed study, Sylvia Angelique Alajaji shows how the boundaries of Armenian music and identity have been continually redrawn: from the identification of folk music with an emergent Armenian nationalism under Ottoman rule to the early postgenocide diaspora community of Armenian musicians in New York, a more self-consciously nationalist musical tradition that emerged in Armenian communities in Lebanon, and more recent clashes over music and politics in California. Alajaji offers a critical look at the complex and multilayered forces that shape identity within communities in exile, demonstrating that music is deeply enmeshed in these processes. Multimedia components available online include video and audio recordings to accompany each case study.
