Digital Activism Panel at ISA 2016 conference Austria - Deadline for Abstracts: Sept 30
by Gerbaudo, Paolo 10 Sep '15

10 Sep '15

Dear All, I am organising a panel on digital activism at the International Sociological Association (ISA) 3rd Forum of Sociology in Vienna, Austria, July 10-14 2016 and this is a call for abstracts from researchers working on this issue. The session titled "From Indymedia to #Occupywallstreet and Anti-Austerity Protests in Europe: Three Generations of Digital Activism Logics" aims at exploring the cultural and technological evolution of digital activism in the last decades. You find a description abstract of the panel below. To submit an abstract for the conference, please use this link https://isaconf.confex.com/isaconf/forum2016/webprogrampreliminary/Session6… The deadline is September 30th 2015. Please contact me if you need further information on the session. Best, Paolo Gerbaudo ----------- >From Indymedia to #Occupywallstreet and Anti-Austerity Protests in Europe: Three Generations of Digital Activism Logics Across the last few decades the logic of activism, and of digital activism in particular, has changed dramatically. We have experienced what could be regarded as three waves of protests from the early 1990s to the present. Each of these waves is connected both by the transformations in global capitalism and the rise of the digital age, while still displaying differences or rather developments in movement-based organizing. Together, however, we can conceive these three waves as part of one broader epoch of contention. Those particular waves of contention are: Global Social Justice, Occupy/Arab Spring, Syriza/Podemos. In this session, we propose to look at the logics of these waves of protest (or generations of digital activism) in order to explore their similarities and differences. The goal would be to mine history assuming a diachronic perspective, but more concretely to understand the strengths and weaknesses of this epoch of contention as we watch the current wave of struggle unfold. Some of the questions that will be tackled in the session are: * How have capitalist transformations informed the emergence of the current epoch of contention and how has the activists relation to communication technologies evolved and shaped the logics of protests and mobilizations? * Can we conceive of an underlying meta-logics of movement politics informing the waves of protests and how are they best conceptualized, similar as well as differently enacted? * What has been the evolution of the role of alternative media in an oversaturated media environment where corporate social media are increasingly dominating the digital activism scenario? * What are the challenges that social movements and their communication face when they crystallize into political parties? * What lessons have we learned from the analysis of this epoch of contention and what are the future horizons of digital activism and protest?

Index it yourself
by Barry Wellman 09 Sep '15

09 Sep '15

I have found that my best indexer is me. I hired a pro for our first book, Social Structures, and she did such a bad job, that I did it over again myself. I have done my/our 3 subsequent books myself. Including Networked (check it yourself) I found it takes a day. A big screen helps (I have 27"). I go thru the book and identify indexicable items. And keep many pages up on the same big screen. (I think I achieved 6 or 8 with Networked. And because I know the book and the concepts, it works.

Deadline approaching, Digital Literacy: Policies, research and good practices. University of Padua, 10th December 2015
by Marco Scarcelli 09 Sep '15

09 Sep '15

*Deadline approaching and apologies for cross-posting * *Digital Literacy: Policies, research and good practices.* *University of Padua, 10th December 2015* *Call for Abstract (Deadline 4th October 2015)* Digital media has become ever more pervasive in the social, political, economical and cultural life of every individual, changing the role of the user to become more active in mediation processes. Digital Literacy is the ability to access, analyse, evaluate and produce messages in all the various formats of communication. It is a necessary skill set for living and participating in what is referred to as the “information society”. The term Digital Literacy does not solely refer to technical skills, but also to the various combinations of those skills, and to a broader socio-cultural context. It is, therefore, an important key concept which involves diverse pathways to highlight different cultural and social points of view in contemporary society. The conference will address the issue of digital literacy by focussing on three main areas: (1) Policies that promote the development of these skills; (2) Research on the necessary skills for efficiently engaging in digital environments in an informed manner; (3) Experiences and best practices related to the teaching and strengthening of the skills needed for the critical use of digital resources. We welcome abstracts related to theoretical, methodological and empirical sub-themes such as the following: Research and assessment of Digital Literacy Informal education and Digital Literacy Formal Education and Digital Literacy Digital Literacy paradigm The media industry and Digital Literacy Digital Literacy in Europe, America, Asia, Africa and Oceania Digital Literacy policies Digital Literacy and intimacy, sexuality and gender The participatory and educational potential of Digital Literacy Digital Literacy and social inequality Good practices for the development of Digital Literacy *Guidelines for the presentation of abstracts:* § Abstracts should be no longer than 300 words, and may be written in either English or Italian (presentations, however, will be made in English). § Abstract and any other information must be sent as a Microsoft Word file (.doc or .docx) § The first page of the proposal must contain: 1.

Re: [Air-L] organizational behavior and social media, asking for recommendations
by Niccolò Tempini 09 Sep '15

Hi, not sure I recall fine but I think these articles might matter (here in sparse order) Majchrzak, A., Faraj, S., Kane, G. C., and Azad, B. 2013. The Contradictory Influence of Social Media Affordances on Online Communal Knowledge Sharing. Journal of Computer-Mediated Communication 19(1) 38–55. http://doi.wiley.com/10.1111/jcc4.12030 Faraj, S., Jarvenpaa, S. L., and Majchrzak, A. 2011. Knowledge Collaboration in Online Communities.

How Large U.S. Companies Can Use Twitter and Other Social Media to Gain Business Value. MIS Quarterly Executive 9(4) 243–259. Treem, J. W., and Leonardi, P. M. 2012. Social Media Use in Organizations: Exploring the Affordances of Visibility, Editability, Persistence, and Association.

Information Systems Research 25(4) 796–816. Also a connected issue is, perhaps, about employees of organizations developing (not just using) social media, and how social media development (in order to engage a public to do certain things) can affect organisational behaviour. This is not about employees using social media, but employees trying to make people use social media. Perhaps it is a bit different but also a diverse take on social media and organization. Have written a couple of articles on the matter that go along these lines but this might be not what you were looking for? Happy to send along if otherwise.

by Angel Dawn 08 Sep '15

08 Sep '15

Hey there, Can someone please help me in unsubscribing please? I have gone through the steps and yet I still am subscribed. I have done this 4 times now. I click the unsubscribe link at the bottom of the email that is sent to me, it takes me to a page and I click unsubscribe after putting in my email address. It notifies me that I will be receiving an email and to click the link in the email to confirm. I never receive the confirmation email and I have checked spam. What can I do please? Thank you, Angel
