Best hashtags? Crowd-sourced links to deep election night buzz
by Steven Clift 07 Nov '16

07 Nov '16

Join me in this Google Sheet: http://po.st/electionhashtags Let's gather the - BEST - hashtags on Twitter, Facebook, etc. to soak in the election night results and chatter. I have one sheet for US national political/election hashtags and one for states. Add the ones for your state now! I have a proposal, if you are talking about results from a state, add a hashtag like: #VoteOH for Ohio, etc. This way we can easily tune into reports from the field ... Also, how about promoting #letmevote with Facebook Live for people to record/broadcast that they are having troubles voting. Add #VoteOH (etc.) and you'd be more visible locally. Like #votingselfie (and #ballotselfie ) is being used, but a bit more news worthy. You can search for Facebook Live videos by dropping the # people the hashtag text. Examples: https://www.facebook.com/search/str/election2016/videos-live https://www.facebook.com/search/str/trump/videos-live https://www.facebook.com/search/str/clinton/videos-live The map of "live" Facebook Live broadcasts is here: https://www.facebook.com/livemap

CfP #ICA17: How to Quantify the Unquantifiable: The Methodology of Gender and Intersecting Dimensions of Identity
by K Eckert 07 Nov '16

07 Nov '16

Call for Papers: Pre-Conference ICA 2017, San Diego How to Quantify the Unquantifiable The Methodology of Gender and Intersecting Dimensions of Identity Feminist Scholarship Division, LGBTQ Studies IG, Mass Communication Division In the field of media and communication studies the methods we apply are informed by the theoretical paradigms of our investigations. Mass communication research on media users in long-running national surveys or media effects experiments are often tasked with reducing complex theoretical constructs to quantifiable categories. Similarly, research on representations in media applies categorical systematics to assess how gender, race, ethnicity, sexuality, disability, class, age, and other dimensions of identity are depicted across media outlets. On the one hand, research applying standardized methods usually falls short in acknowledging the social construction and blurring boundaries of these categories. On the other hand, scholarship informed by deconstructivist theories has aimed to identify examples and patterns of media realities, but are sometimes criticized for including far-reaching conclusions without generalizable evidence. Our keynote speaker, Prof. Dr. Susanne Kinnebrock (University of Augsburg, Germany) will open the pre-conference with an overview of how the concepts of gender and sex have historically evolved within our research traditions and how closely related our methodological approaches to these developments have been. This will set the stage to elaborate and think about ways to critically appraise gender and its intersecting dimensions within the quantitative paradigm. Overall, the pre-conference aims to bring together scholars with different approaches to the same issues with the intention of informing as well as inspiring collaborative approaches across disciplines and paradigms. We invite innovative thinking on what methodologies are open to us, both when we ask questions concerning large populations or when we seek to quantify complex ideas. What methodological approaches can we productively employ while assessing matters of gender, sex, race, ethnicity, and class in a thoughtful manner? We invite three types of submissions: 1. Research reports that share findings of systematic research projects that use, challenge, or subvert constructions of gender and other dimensions of identity. Please submit an abstract (approx. 500 words). 2. Position papers that discuss methodological issues in a current project, general conceptual issues, or possible questions to contribute during our roundtables on the advancement of investigating gender and other intersecting dimensions. Please submit an abstract (approx. 500 words). 3. Workshop proposals that suggest a workshop concept with activities, discussion questions, and other materials. A possible approach to the workshop can include a focus on examining specific concepts of identity dimensions in research traditions, paradigms, or historical periods of communication studies as a discipline. Other topics fitting the theme of the pre-conference are welcome (approx. 500 words + materials). Please email all submissions and questions to sabine.reich(a)ijk.hmtm-hannover.de<mailto:sabine.reich@ijk.hmtm-hannover.de>. Submissions are due by December 15, 2016, 11:59 EST. Please clearly mark the submission type before the title and in your e-mail. Notifications of acceptance will be sent out by February 20, 2017.

*This might be of interest to some of you* *About the book: Data Ethics - The New Competitive Advantage by Gry Hasselbalch and Pernille Tranberg:* Respect for privacy and the right to control one’s own data are becoming key parameters to gain a competitive edge in today’s business world. Companies, organisations and authorities which view data ethics as a social responsibility, giving it the same importance as environmental awareness and respect for human rights, are tomorrow’s winners. The book combines broad trend analyses with more than 50 cases of companies which use data ethics to varying degrees. The authors make the case that citizens and consumers are no longer just concerned about a lack of control over their data, but they also have begun to act, they describe alternative business models, advances in technology and new regulations, all of which combine to foster a growing market for data-ethical products and services. *Get the Book Directly From the Authors <http://dataethics.eu/en/buydirectly/>(pdf, e-pub or print)* *or on Amazon **& iBooks* *More about the book: www.dataethics.eu/book <http://www.dataethics.eu/book>* -- Francesco Lapenta PhD https://beingdigital.org/whois-2/ <http://www.beingdigital.org/whois-2/> latest books The information transmitted is intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed and may contain confidential and privileged material.

Call for Papers: ICA 2017 Preconference
by Anna Litvinenko 07 Nov '16

07 Nov '16

Call for Papers: ICA 2017 Preconference The Consequences of the Internet for Authoritarian Politics: Comparative Perspectives Time & Venue Date: May 25, 2017 Time: 9 am - 5 pm Location: San Diego Hilton Bayfront (onsite, conference hotel of the ICA annual conference 2017) Rationale Over the past decade, a vibrant body of academic literature has emerged on the political consequences of the Internet for non-democratic politics. However, the majority of extant studies have focused on phenomena of political communication in one authoritarian regime only. By contrast, very few studies have aimed at comparing empirical findings from across different authoritarian contexts. Against this backdrop, this preconference explicitly aims at providing a forum for scholars from across the globe to discuss, and develop, comparative perspectives on the consequences of the Internet for authoritarian politics. In order to pursue this goal, we have invited a number of well-respected scholars in the field to contribute to the event. Invited speakers include Muzammil Hussain (University of Michigan, USA), Paolo Mancini (University of Perugia, Italy), Sarah Oates (University of Maryland, USA), and Katrin Voltmer (University of Leeds). In order to supplement the preconference program, we would like to invite at least three types of additional submissions. Firstly, we explicitly welcome submissions that compare empirical data across different authoritarian contexts. Secondly, we are also interested in papers that present empirical findings from only one country, but that, at the theoretical level, explicitly aim at embedding them into a wider regional or global context. Such theoretically informed comparisons can be achieved, for instance, by referring to the lively recent debates around new types of responsive and competitive authoritarianism, or to the literature on authoritarian institutions. As a third type of submission, we also invite purely theoretical contributions. Moreover, as a number of scholars have recently lamented, extant research on the conference topic has largely focused on either how oppositional activists leverage new digital tools to challenge authoritarian rule or how authoritarian elites suppress and censor online dissent. Against this backdrop, we are particularly keen to also discuss questions around how authoritarian elites pro-actively deploy the Internet to expand their communicative power. Why, how, and with what consequences, for instance, do authoritarian leaders across the globe reach out to their citizens via social networks? Why do they open up virtual participatory spaces that host, for example, online polls, online petitions, or virtual deliberative forums? The topic of the preconference is situated at the intersection of two divisions of the ICA, the Political Communication and the Global Communication & Social Change divisions, which are cosponsoring the event. At a more abstract level, a key goal of the preconference is thus also to bring together scholars from these two communities, encouraging intellectual exchange across manifold disciplinary and methodological borders. Participants who would not like to contribute but would still like to attend the event are welcome to sign up on the ICA registration website as audience members. The participation fee, which is being charged to cover the two coffee breaks, is 50 USD. The conference is organized by the Emmy Noether research group "Mediating (Semi-)Authoritarianism: The Power of the Internet in the Post-Soviet World," of Freie Universitaet Berlin. All news regarding the conference, including its finalized program, will be published on the research group's website, <http://www.mediating-authoritarianism.net/ica-2017-pre-conference/> http://www.mediating-authoritarianism.net/ica-2017-pre-conference/.
