Where the Wild Things Were centers on the exploding, contentious national conversation about the nature of childhood and parenting in the postwar US emblematized by Dr. Spock's Baby and Child Care. Renowned scholar Henry Jenkins demonstrates that the language that shaped a growing field of advice literature for parents also informed the period's fictions—in film, television, and elsewhere—produced for and consumed by children.

In Food, John Coveney examines "food as . . . " identity, politics, industry, regulation, the environment, justice, and gastronomy. He explores how food helps us understand what it means to be human.

This book begins by asking the listener if they can write a Black character. It then asks the listener questions about their knowledge and understanding of race and racism. Exploring the popular representation of law and order, healthcare and celebrity in the entertainment industry, and comparing this with the reality of these institutions throughout history and today, Lubimbi opens up the discussion and offers solutions to problems surrounding race, representation, and stereotyping.

With a bit of know-how and money, you, too, can have it all. At least, that's what teen pop culture was selling in surround sound at the turn of the millennium. From movies like Clueless to TV's Dawson's Creek to the music videos on MTV's Total Request Live and the catalogs of Abercrombie & Fitch, a consumer-minded ethos drove pop culture storytelling as millennials came of age in the late 1990s and early 2000s. But in the long shadow of the Great Recession, the upwardly mobile aspirations fostered by the era's popular culture and media seem to have been thwarted.

Este audiolibro es una investigación periodística y un recuento sobre una situación que, desde hace décadas, ha llevado a familias mexicanas enteras a abandonar sus hogares: la gentrificación o, como preferimos decirle, el blanqueamiento por despojo. Este fenómeno migratorio y socioeconómico rompe la identidad comunitaria y nos desarraiga del espacio que antes nos pertenecía.

Following the death of the family patriarch, a box of newly procured family documents reveals writer-filmmaker Chase Joynt’s previously unknown connection to Canadian media maverick Marshall McLuhan. Vantage Points takes up the surprising appearance of McLuhan in Joynt’s family archive as a way to think about legacies of childhood sexual abuse and how we might process and represent them.

Though people frequently use mobile technologies for news consumption, evidence from several fields shows that smaller screens and slower connection speeds pose major limitations for meaningful reading. In News and Democratic Citizens in the Mobile Era, Johanna Dunaway and Kathleen Searles demonstrate the effects of mobile devices on news attention, engagement, and recall, and identify a key cognitive mechanism underlying these effects: cognitive effort.

Con frecuencia, estas teorías implican la existencia de un grupo subterráneo o una conspiración secreta de las altas esferas que está detrás de los acontecimientos en cuestión. Estas teorías pueden tener su origen en la historia, en la cultura popular o incluso en la experiencia personal de la persona que las elabora. También pueden surgir como un intento de dar algún tipo de significado a situaciones que de otra manera pueden parecer confusas, caóticas o sin sentido.

Beneath the outward appearance of legitimate government and accountable officials there lurk hidden agendas, shadowy personalities and special interest groups seeking to seize control of the nation for their own ends. These 'states within a state', unfettered by legal norms and unworried by public opinion, are known as 'deep states'.

Con l'avvento dei social media è scomparso il solco che divideva mondo reale e mondo virtuale, consentendoci di identificarli abbastanza nettamente. Oggi quello che troviamo on line è un mondo post-verità, al cui interno le notizie deliberatamente false o distorte sono usate per orientare anche in maniera significativa le decisioni individuali, soprattutto in relazione allo scontro politico e alle scelte elettorali.

"Why do conservatives hate comedy? Why is there no right-wing Jon Stewart?" These sorts of questions launch a million tweets, a thousand op-eds, and more than a few scholarly analyses. That's Not Funny argues that it is both an intellectual and politically strategic mistake to assume that comedy has a liberal bias. Matt Sienkiewicz and Nick Marx take listeners—particularly self-described liberals—on a tour of contemporary conservative comedy and the "right-wing comedy complex."

Influencer – das ist für eine ganze Generation inzwischen ein ernsthafter Berufswunsch, wenn nicht sogar ein Traumberuf. Es klingt auch zu verlockend: Ein bisschen posieren vor der Kamera, ein paar Likes und schon kommen die gut bezahlten Werbekooperationen wie von selbst. Sie filmen sich beim Schminken, reisen an paradiesische Orte, halten sich fit mit Sport und teilen ihre Tipps mit Fans. Doch dahinter steckt ein profitorientiertes Business, das große Begehrlichkeiten und Abhängigkeiten auf der Seite der Nutzer schafft.

Oggi, l'inondazione di immagini a cui molti bambini, adolescenti e adulti vanno incontro per l'abitudine di stare per molte ore davanti a uno schermo, (televisione, telefonino) espropria gli stessi di quel tipo di azione che è caratterizzato dal linguaggio parlato e dalla comunicazione sociale. Insomma, la tendenza naturale che l'individuo ha di immaginare, giocare, dialogare, viene lentamente ma progressivamente repressa dall'influenza di questi mezzi moderni di comunicazione.

The American Revolution was not only a political contest for liberty, equality, and independence (for white men, at least); it was also a contest to define certain accounts of reality to be truthful while defining others as false and dangerous.

The idea that journalism should be independent is foundational to its contemporary understandings and its role in democracy. But from what, exactly, should journalism be independent? This book traces the genealogy of the idea of journalistic autonomy, from the press freedom debates of the 17th century up to the digital, networked world of the 21st. Using an eclectic and thought-provoking theoretical framework, the authors analyze the deeper meanings and uses of the terms independence and autonomy in journalism.
