Brutalisierung und Banalisierung: Asoziale Und Soziale Netze (Essentials)
by Peter LudesPeter Ludes entlarvt Brutalisierung und Banalisierung in kollektiven Mythen – für eine Emanzipation der Sinne im Zeitalter ihrer technischen Vereinnahmung. Denn Informations- und Kommunikationstechnologien dienen nicht nur der Ausweitung von Kommunikation, sondern auch als Kampfmittel. Insoweit sie aufgrund ihrer leicht zugänglichen, scheinbar kostenlosen Verbreitung als relativ natürliche Weltbedingungen erlebt werden, konstituieren sie neue Mythen der unbegrenzten, freien Kommunikation. Welche Perspektiven und Praktiken werden aber wie vorgegeben und formatiert? Wie wird das komplexe und widersprüchliche Zusammenspiel und Gegeneinander von fiktiven Behauptungen und verdrängten ‚Tat-Sachen‘ zu einem neuen Problem? Es geht zum Schluss um unterschiedlich vernetzte lokale Kontakt- und globale virtuelle Machtzonen, die hier symbolisch aufgehoben werden mit Abrechnungen für die acht reichsten Männer der Erde.Der Autor Dr. Peter Ludes, PhD (USA), habilitierter Soziologe, apl. Professor für Kultur- und Medienwissenschaft in Siegen. Professor für Massenkommunikation an der Jacobs University Bremen 2002-2017, Gastprofessor an der Universität Köln.

by Edith CortelezziUn libro necesario para todo aquel que quiera sobrevivir y destacarse en el ambiente empresarial y social con el conocimiento de las reglas protocolares como herramienta. En el mundo de hoy -donde todo es rápido y vertiginoso- el éxito tanto en el ámbito empresarial como social nos exige estar lo más preparados que nos sea posible. A la hora de buscar trabajo o de desempeñarse satisfactoriamente en el ámbito laboral, las personas no tienen dudas acerca de la importancia de contar con un título universitario, cursos y posgrados que garanticen y realcen sus destrezas. En este contexto, ciertos atributos que parecen pasados de moda deben ser reafirmados. Uno de ellos es el protocolo. La primera intención de este libro es desmitificar la idea de que el protocolo solo es para diplomáticos. Nada más alejado. Muchas veces no sabemos expresar lo que queremos decir, nos ganamos por torpeza la antipatía de otros, hablamos cuando deberíamos hacer silencio o nos callamos cuando están esperando una respuesta de nuestra parte. Otras veces, el desconocimiento de las formas nos hace trastabillar en los momentos clave. Saber comportarse en todas las circunstancias es un arte que puede aprenderse y nos llevará directo al éxito. Este libro brinda toda la información necesaria para desenvolvernos en situaciones complejas. A través del manejo y el cuidado de los modales, otorga la seguridad necesaria para negociar con un cliente, convivir cordialmente con nuestros pares y ser justos con nuestros subalternos. Nos da herramientas para mantener una conversación interesante, saber mirar a nuestro interlocutor, asistir a una cena o ser un buen invitado. Con un lenguaje ameno y descontracturado, Edith Cortelezzi nos demuestra que todo es posible cuando se conocen las reglas.

Building and Negotiating Religious Identities in a Zen Buddhist Temple: A Perspective of Buddhist Rhetoric
by Fan ZhangThis book explores the practices in a Zen Buddhist temple located in Northwest Ohio against the backdrop of globalization. Drawing on the previous studies on Buddhist modernization and westernization, it provides a better understanding of the westernization of Buddhism and its adapted practices and rituals in the host culture. Using rhetorical criticism methodology, the author approaches this temple as an embodiment of Buddhist rhetoric with both discursive and non-discursive expressions within the discourses of modernity. By analyzing the rhetorical practices at the temple through abbots’ teaching videos, the temple website, members’ dharma names, and the materiality of the temple space and artifacts, the author discovers how Buddhist rhetoric functions to constitute and negotiate the religious identities of the community members through its various rituals and activities. At the same time, the author examines how the temple’s space and settings facilitate the collective the formation and preservation of the Buddhist identity. Through a nuanced discussion of Buddhist rhetoric, this book illuminates a new rhetorical methodology to understand religious identity construction. Furthermore, it offers deeper insights into the future development of modern Buddhism, which are also applicable to Buddhist practitioners and other major world religions.

Building Broadband: Strategies and Policies for the Developing World
by Siddhartha Raja Yongsoo Kim Tim KellyAccess to broadband connectivity is a country's passport to the global information society and knowledge economy of the future. However, the adoption and use of broadband technology today remains extremely uneven and threatens to create a new digital divide. At the end of 2009, countries in North America and the European Union accounted for more than 50 percent of the world's 1 billion fixed and mobile broadband subscriptions, but South Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa together accounted for less than 3 percent. The experience with mobile telephony though shows the potential for growth in the information and communication technology sector in developing countries. Almost 75 percent of the world's mobile telephone subscriptions are in low- and middle-income countries, which have also promoted exciting innovations and realized significant economic development benefits. In fact, a growing number of countries are seeking to spur broadband development. To aid governments as they design their own programs, this volume offers examples and ideas from some of the most successful broadband markets: particularly the Republic of Korea, but also Finland, France, Japan, Sweden, the United Kingdom, and the United States. 'Building Broadband' does not suggest a universal solution but rather provides a long list of policies and programs organized within a strategic framework that allows solutions tailored to country circumstances. The essential building blocks identified are useful everywhere because they focus on improving incentives and the climate for private investment. This is a policy that even countries with very limited resources will be able to exploit.

Building Commitment to Reform through Strategic Communication
by Helen R. Garcia Cecilia Cabañero-VerzosaStrategic communication is a powerful tool for creating broad-based support for reform and change initiatives. Much has been written about why communication matters in reform efforts, but there is scant material available to help those who manage reforms apply communication concepts and approaches to their own programs and policy-reform initiatives. 'Building Commitment to Reform through Strategic Communication' attempts to bridge that gap. The authors present a pragmatic and systematic approach for reformers ready to use communication strategically to achieve their reform goals. The Five Communication Management Decision Tool helps reformers and their teams develop a framework for their communication strategies. This decision tool helps managers see change initiatives through the eyes of those who will be affected by the reforms. When the decision tool is used in the early stages of the development of change programs, reformers gain an even deeper understanding of the stakeholders' perspectives on the reforms, which influence stakeholder opposition or support for them. Such understanding will not only be instructive, but possibly transformative-for both change agents and those stakeholders whose support is critical to the success of reform. Reform agents may recognize the source of stakeholder resistance and be able to revise reform goals and redesign change interventions. Stakeholders who have a shared understanding of why the status quo is not acceptable and change is necessary are more likely to create coalitions of committed allies and supporters who will work together to achieve reform goals. This workbook illustrates how the decision tool can be used for various types of change and reform initiatives-from policy reform, to country and donor partnership agreements, to sectoral reforms. Tested and used in learning interventions across cultures, regions, and sectors, the tool has been used successfully by teams in government, nongovernmental organizations, the business sector, and donor agencies. The book will be of great interest to readers working in all of these areas.
