"Aktuell unterzieht sich die kubanische Gesellschaft tiefgreifenden wirtschaftlichen, sozialen und politischen Reformen, durch welche der stattfindende medienkulturelle Wandel bzw. die technische Transformation an kultureller Relevanz gewinnt". Entscheidend ist dabei der Übergang von einem massenhaften politischen Diskurs zu einer personalisierten bzw. individualisierten Kommunikation durch den Einsatz von Medientechnik in der Öffentlichkeit. Wir sprechen mit dem Autor des gleichnamigen Buches, dem Medienwissenschaftler Rayner García Hernández, darüber, wie nutzergenerierte Infrastrukturen, Nahkörpertechnologien und Influencer*innen die kubanische Gesellschaft von einer Art Sender-Empfänger-Struktur zu einer Digital Citizenship hin transformieren.

Karoliina Toivakka on suomalainen toimittaja, joka opiskelee tällä hetkellä Tukholman yliopistossa. Hän valmistelee Global Media Studies -nimisen maisteriohjelman lopputyötään eli pro gradua. Toivakka tutkii, miten suomalaiset iltapäivälehdet kirjoittavat Suomen romaneista. Tutkielmansa osana hän myös haastattelee suomalaisia romaneja ja tutkii heidän käsityksiään siitä, miten romaneista iltapäivälehdissä viestitään. Toimittaja Jaakko Laakso tapasi Karoliina Toivakan videoneuvotteluyhteyden välityksellä toukokuun alussa.

President Trump uses Twitter to suggest everything from nuclear war, to tout his personal good looks, and even lately, that he may be a victim of lynching. He's also used Twitter to communicate directly with would-be voters and with the media. If you think President Trump is a little out of control with his daily tweets, and what this may mean, in this episode, Dr. Paromita Pain deconstructs her 2019 paper called “The President Is in: Public Opinion and the Presidential Use of Twitter.” Dr. Pain is an assistant professor of Global Media Studies at the Reynolds School of Journalism, where she explores emerging newsroom practices and concerns in a global context. Her findings outline a calculated effort by the president to marshal his 60 million plus Twitter followers. The study may leave you asking if there is still hope of a more civilized future on Twitter and in our politics? The reporter for this episode is graduate student Norris Burkes, with Nico Colombant, the coordinator of the Reynolds Media Lab, as co-host.

Muzammil Hussain and Phillip Howard have authored Democracy’s Fourth Wave? Digital Media and the Arab Spring (Oxford University Press, 2013) which explores the role social media (Twitter, Facebook, and texting) have played in political activism in Tunisia, Egypt, and Lebanon.  Hussain is a new Assistant Professor of Global Media Studies at the University of Michigan and Phillip Howard is Professor of Communication, Information, and International Studies at the University of Washington. Through extensive data collection and fieldwork, the authors bring a multi-method and multi-disciplinary approach to their timely subject. They argue that digital activism typically travels through six steps of protest mobilization starting with capacity building and ends with post-protest information war. This is the third book from the Oxford Studies in Digital Politics series featured on the podcast. As with the previous, Political Scientists can learn a lot from the disciplinary perspective brought to the subject of activism from those in Communications. Learn more about your ad choices.
