by Sara Atanasova 07 Feb '22

07 Feb '22

European Journal of Health Communication (EJHC) invites submissions to a *Special Issue on “Online Health Communities in the Vortex of Healthcare Controversies: Theoretical Frameworks and Empirical Studies”* - *Three weeks until the deadline!* (Guest Editors: Gregor Petrič & Sara Atanasova, University of Ljubljana). Online health communities (OHCs) are dynamic and insightful places where a variety of communicative processes can be detected; these processes are linked to tensions between different levels of accessibility, different forms of interaction, various streams of knowledge, tensions between low and high e-health literacy, conflicts between expert and patient expertise, positive and negative aspects of patient empowerment, and the like. This special issue aims to address the tensions, opportunities, and perils of OHCs that have important effects on individuals such as patients, caregivers, and health professionals as well as on patient-health professional interaction, the healthcare system and its services. This special issue is open but not limited to studies that intersect or interconnect with the following topics: 1. Communicative dynamics in OHCs and their controversial outcomes 2. Quality, validity, credibility of health-related information in OHCs 3. Causes and consequences of (dis)trust and (mis)information in OHCs 4. Patient empowerment and disempowerment and their effects on the self-management of health issues, decision making processes, and trust in health experts 5. Empowerment of health-professionals participating in OHCs 6. Impact of patient-health professional interaction in OHCs on offline patient-health professional relationships 7. The potential of OHCs for co-creation processes in the context of healthcare policies and businesses 8. OHCs’ role in informing policy, regulators, and health decision makers 9. Other topics related to OHCs This special issue welcomes innovative studies and invites both theoretical and empirical papers with qualitative, quantitative, or mixed method approaches, so long as they address at least one of the above topics. *Submission Format* We welcome submissions that fit any of the EJHC formats: original research papers, theoretical papers, methodological papers, review articles, brief research reports.

Call for papers for the special issue of the 'Media Studies' journal: 'Platformisation of cultural and audio-visual sectors in the European Union: new policies for new stakeholders'
by Pasko Bilic 07 Feb '22

07 Feb '22

- apologies for cross-posting - Call for papers Special issue of the journal Media Studies (Medijske studije): 'Platformisation of cultural and audio-visual sectors in the European Union: new policies for new stakeholders' Regulation of digital technologies is high on the EU policy agenda. Platforms capture the attention of policy makers due to their dependence on user data, impacts on traditional cultural and audio-visual supply and demand, transnational reach, and excessive concentration of power. Academic approaches focusing on different facets of platforms have been many (e.g. Gillespie, 2010; Jin, 2015; Mansell, 2015; Srnicek, 2017; Rochet and Tirole, 2003) with selected authors speaking of the rise of platform society (van Dijck et al, 2018). The process has taken a new dimension with the impact of the global COVID-19 pandemic that has amplified citizens' usage of online platforms, both for work and for leisure. However, this is a multisided story where the level of digital inequalities in access and skills needs to be taken into account on the demand side. Moreover, the structural implications of supply of European cultural and audiovisual products via platforms also needs to be addressed. Policies are always lagging behind these practices, and in the context of dynamic platform infrastructures (Duffy et al, 2019) this is even more so. European Union has been active in this regard (e.g. Evens and Donders, 2018; Evens et al 2020), particularly with regard to developing strategic goals. The future impact of these policies, however, remains to be tested and verified. Digital Single Market (DSM) Strategy has been one of the priorities of the former Commissions' objectives. Small and medium size platforms can contribute to growth of skills and jobs in the EU, but the domination of large, mainly US, businesses (e.g. Google, Amazon, Facebook, Apple, Microsoft, Netflix) opens up questions related to European identity, European integration objectives and the role EU plays in the globalised world (Vlassis, 2020, 2021). This is a recurring issue with the development of European media policies, particularly when it comes to balancing industrial and competitive goals with cultural and public service goals (e.g. Michalis, 2014; Murdock, 2014). With this special issue, we aim to go further from the established discussions of platformisation of cultural production (Poell et al, 2021). The main focus will be on the role of European Union policies on online platforms that affect supply and demand of cultural and audiovisual production. Attention will be given to unpacking social, political and economic dimensions of platformisation, moving beyond deterministic usage of term. We invite papers that examine (but are not limited to) the following questions: How can we interpret changes in European Union policies relating to online platforms and cultural and audiovisual sectors? How well, if at all, are they challenging US platform monopolies? How are they balancing market competition with cultural diversity and pluralism? What new stakeholders are emerging and what new policies are drafted/created? Analyses tackling policies and practices in other countries that bring comparative approaches are also welcome. How do cultural content producers grapple with changes in platform governance (e.g. pricing strategies, content curation, privacy policies)? What are the implications for produced and distributed content? What new types of creative labour practices are brought about by the online platforms and how can we best analyse the policies developed to mitigate these changes? What are the consumption patterns of audiovisual and cultural content through platforms? What, if any, EU policies are targeting citizens' access and skills to use such content? With the increase of the usage of online platforms during the COVID-19 pandemic has there been an acceleration of the (re)creation of digital cultural policies (in Europe)? What theoretical frameworks would be best suited to interpret these changes? Please note that guest editors welcome submissions on a wide variety of theoretical and/or empirical contributions to the study of the impact of platforms on (policy) developments of cultural and audiovisual sectors. Guest editors: Jaka Primorac, Paško Bilić and Aleksandra Uzelac, Department for Culture and Communication, Institute for Development and International Relations (IRMO), Zagreb, Croatia Papers should be up to 8000 words, including footnotes and references. Detailed instructions for authors can be found here: https://hrcak.srce.hr/upute/guide_authors_Medijske_studije.docx Papers should be submitted directly through the Media Studies OJS system where they will undergo peer review following the usual procedures of the journal.

Readings on "taboo online epistemologies"
by Zimmer, Michael 07 Feb '22

07 Feb '22

Hello, AoIR community. I posted this request on Twitter but wanted to ping the listserv as well. I have a student interested in studying what they call "taboo online epistemologies" - groups who organize online around controversial/false narratives. Initial work looked at Jan 6 truthers on Reddit, but this could also include anti-vaxxers, Q*non, etc. Their interest also extends to more general controversial/risky knowledge production online, such as self-harm communities, crowdsourced sleuthing, hobbyists reconstructing CIA/drone flight paths, other forms of digital communities where open knowledge production is risky... I'm gathering readings to help us both explore what's already been done in this space, identify best practices regarding methodologies, etc. Any suggestions are most welcome. Thanks, Michael -- Michael Zimmer, PhD Associate Professor, Department of Computer Science Marquette University michael.zimmer(a)marquette.edu<mailto:michael.zimmer@marquette.edu> www.michaelzimmer.org<https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.michae…> @michaelzimmer Schedule a meeting with me at https://calendly.com/michael-zimmer/<https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcalendly.…>

Request for literature on populist exploitation of outrage online
by Yvesmichelet 06 Feb '22

06 Feb '22

Hi I have a request for literature about how populists exploit outrage in order to spread their message and reach new audiences. In brief, there is this opinion piece by Ryan Holiday https://observer.com/2017/02/i-helped-create-the-milo-trolling-playbook-you… Which states: The key tactic of alternative or provocative figures is to leverage the size and platform of their “not-audience” (i.e. their haters in the mainstream) to attract attention and build an actual audience. Let’s say 9 out of 10 people who hear something Milo says will find it repulsive and juvenile. Because of that response rate, it’s going to be hard for someone like Milo to market himself through traditional channels. His potential audience is too spread out, and doesn’t have that much in common. He can’t advertise, he can’t find them one by one. It’s just not going to scale. But let’s say he can acquire massive amounts of negative publicity by pissing off people in the media? Well now all of a sudden someone is absorbing the cost of this inefficient form of marketing for him. If a CNN story reaches 100,000 people, that’s 90,000 people all patting themselves on the back for how smart and decent they are. They’re just missing the fact that the 10,000 new people that just heard about Milo for the first time. The same goes for when you angrily share on Facebook some godawful thing one of these people has said. The vast majority of your friends rush to agree, but your younger cousin has a dark switch in his brain go on for the first time. I wanted to ask - are there any academic studies on this aspect of exploiting outrage, e.g. on twitter or facebook? So far I haven`t found anything! Thanks Yves
