Environmental Debates in Albania: Media Discourse during the Post-Communist Period
by Deniz ÇupiThis book investigates the role played by classical and digital media, and social networks in shaping debates on the environment. Providing a unique window of observation on environmental debates, the book explores the media theatre from the post-communist perspective of Albania. The work navigates the creation and development of environmental debate in Albania using evidence-based case studies, investigating the role of actors involved, who are closely related to the media, such as in business or politics. Environmental Debates in Albania offers an original insight on environmental debate, which is closely tied to and influenced by the place and culture within which it originates. Rich literature exists on global environmental issues, protests, policy and the rhetoric around climate change; this book supplies another piece to the puzzle through its focus on the under-researched area of environmental debate in post-communist and Eastern European countries.
Environmental Journalism: Reporting on Environmental Concerns and Climate Change in India
by D. S. PoornanandaEnvironmental Journalism: Reporting on Environmental Concerns and Climate Change in India examines the increase of environmental concerns and its reflection in Indian media, exploring the possibilities of and constraints in covering environmental news. The book discusses major challenges in environmental reportage, such as political and corporate pressures on media houses and threats to journalists. It discusses why environmental reporting is not considered an important ‘beat’ and reports covering these issues are usually assigned to junior reporters. This book analyses why journalists lack the proper training to report on environmental issues, focusing on the many obstacles to scientific knowledge and specialized training. It draws critical insights from interviews with environmental journalists, activists and specialists, and will be an important read for scholars of not only media studies and environmental studies but also sociology, politics and development studies. Looking at the media’s role in framing environmental degradation as a human rights issue, the book argues that the growth of environmental journalism can contribute significantly to global initiatives for saving the planet.
Environmental Rhetoric and Ecologies of Place (Routledge Studies in Rhetoric and Communication)
by Peter N. GogginUnderstanding how rhetoric, and environmental rhetoric in particular, informs and is informed by local and global ecologies contributes to our conversations about sustainability and resilience — the preservation and conservation of the earth and the future of human society. This book explores some of the complex relationships, collaborations, compromises, and contradictions between human endeavor and situated discourses, identities and landscapes, social justice and natural resources, movement and geographies, unpacking and grappling with the complexities of rhetoric of presence. Making a significant contribution to exploring the complex discursive constructions of environmental rhetorics and place-based rhetorics, this collection considers discourses, actions, and adaptations concerning environmental regulations and development, sustainability, exploitation, and conservation of energy resources. Essays visit arguments on cultural values, social justice, environmental advocacy, and identity as political constructions of rhetorical place and space. Rural and urban case studies contribute to discussions of the ethics and identities of environment, and the rhetorics of environmental cartography and glocalization. Contributors represent a range of specialization across a variety of scholarly research in such fields as communication studies, rhetorical theory, social/cultural geography, technical/professional communication, cartography, anthropology, linguistics, comparative literature/ecocriticism, literacy studies, digital rhetoric/media studies, and discourse analysis. Thus, this book goes beyond the assumption that rhetorics are situated, and challenges us to consider not only how and why they are situated, but what we mean when we theorize notions of situated, place-based rhetorics.

Environmentalism under Authoritarian Regimes: Myth, Propaganda, Reality (Routledge Environmental Humanities)
by Stephen Brain Viktor PálSince the early 2000s, authoritarianism has risen as an increasingly powerful global phenomenon. This shift has not only social and political implications, but also environmental implications: authoritarian leaders seek to recast the relationship between society and the government in every aspect of public life, including environmental policy. When historians of technology or the environment have investigated the environmental consequences of authoritarian regimes, they have frequently argued that authoritarian regimes have been unable to produce positive environmental results or adjust successfully to global structural change, if they have shown any concern for the environment at all. Put another way, the scholarly consensus holds that authoritarian regimes on both the left and the right generally have demonstrated an anti-environmentalist bias, and when opposed by environmentalist social movements, have succeeded in silencing those voices. This book explores the theme of environmental politics and authoritarian regimes on both the right and the left. The authors argue that in instances when environmentalist policies offer the possibility of bolstering a country’s domestic (nationalist) appeal or its international prestige, authoritarian regimes can endorse and have endorsed environmental protective measures. The collection of essays analyzes environmentalist initiatives pursued by authoritarian regimes, and provides explanations for both the successes and failures of such regimes, looking at a range of case studies from a number of countries, including Brazil, China, Poland, and Zimbabwe. The volume contributes to the scholarly debate about the social and political preconditions necessary for effective environmental protection. This book will be of great interest to those studying environmental history and politics, environmental humanities, ecology, and geography.

Eqbal Ahmad: Critical Outsider in a Turbulent Age
by Stuart SchaarEqbal Ahmad (1930?–1999) was a bold and original activist, journalist, and theorist who brought uncommon perspective to the rise of militant Islam, the conflict in Kashmir, the involvement of the United States in Vietnam, and the geopolitics of the Cold War. A long-time friend and intellectual collaborator of Ahmad, Stuart Schaar presents in this book previously unseen materials by and about his colleague, having traveled through the United States, India, Pakistan, western Europe, and North Africa to connect Ahmad's experiences to the major currents of modern history.Ahmad was the first to recognize that former ally Osama bin Laden would turn against the United States. He anticipated the rapidly shifting loyalties of terrorists and understood that overthrowing Saddam Hussein would provoke violence and sectarian strife in Iraq. Ahmad had great compassion for the victims of the proxy wars waged by the leading Cold War powers, and he frequently championed unpopular causes, such as the need to extend the rights of Palestinians and protect Bosnians and Kosovars in a disintegrating Yugoslavia. Toward the end of his life, Ahmad worked tirelessly to broker a peace between India and Pakistan and to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons throughout the subcontinent. As novel and necessary as ever, Ahmad's remarkable vision is here preserved and extended to reveal the extent to which he was involved in the political and historical conflicts of his time.

Equal Time: Television and the Civil Rights Movement
by Aniko BodroghkozyEqual Time: Television and the Civil Rights Movement explores the crucial role of network television in reconfiguring new attitudes in race relations during the civil rights movement. Due to widespread coverage, the civil rights revolution quickly became the United States' first televised major domestic news story. This important medium unmistakably influenced the ongoing movement for African American empowerment, desegregation, and equality. Aniko Bodroghkozy brings to the foreground network news treatment of now-famous civil rights events including the 1965 Selma voting rights campaign, integration riots at the University of Mississippi, and the March on Washington, including Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream" speech. She also examines the most high-profile and controversial television series of the era to feature African American actors--East Side/West Side, Julia, and Good Times--to reveal how entertainment programmers sought to represent a rapidly shifting consensus on what "blackness" and "whiteness" meant and how they now fit together.
Equibalancedistribution - asymmetrische Dichteverteilung: Alternative zur Gauß‘schen symmetrischen Normalverteilung (essentials)
by Marcus HellwigMarcus Hellwig zeigt, dass die kurzlich entwickelte Schiefe Verteilung, im Weiteren Equibalancedistribution (Eqb) genannt, fur die Uberprufung des Prozessverhaltens von Funkubertragungen verwendet werden kann. Beobachtet wird, dass nahezu jegliche Streuung von Messwerten um einen Mittelwert ungleich schief verteilt ist. Diesem Umstand soll die Eqb dadurch Rechnung tragen, dass sie im symmetrischen Zustand eine vollstandige Abbildung der Normalverteilung (NV) ist und die Summe der Wahrscheinlichkeitsdichte innerhalb der betrachteten Varianz gegen 1 konvergiert, gleich wie die Schiefen (asymmetrische Streuungen) links oder rechts des Mittelwertes (Erwartungswert m) positioniert sind.

Equity: How to Design Organizations Where Everyone Thrives
by Minal BopaiahA fast and engaging read, Equity helps leaders create more inclusive organizations using human-centered design and behavior change principles.Even the most passionate advocates for diversity, equity, and inclusion have been known to treat equity as the middle child—the concept they skip over to get to the warm, fuzzy feelings of inclusion. But Minal Bopaiah shows throughout this book that equity is critical if organizations really want to leverage differences for greater impact.Equity allows leaders to create organizations where employees can contribute their unique strengths and collaborate better with peers. Bopaiah explains how leaders can effectively raise awareness of systemic bias and craft new policies that lead to better outcomes and lasting behavioral changes. This book is rich in real-world examples, such as managing partners at a consulting firm who learn to retell their personal stories of success by crediting their systemic advantages and news managers at NPR who redesign their processes to support greater diversity among news sources. This slender book expands DEI past human resources initiatives and shows how leaders can embed equity into core business functions like marketing and communications. Filled with humor, heart, and pragmatism, Equity is a guidebook for change, answering the question of how that so many leaders are asking today.

Erfolgreich Denken und Arbeiten in Netzwerken: Networking als Kulturtechnik
by Klaus-Dieter MüllerDas Zusammenleben der Menschen hat sich verändert und erfordert entsprechende Verhaltensweisen. Wo Gewissheiten verloren gehen, muss gleichwohl etwas existieren, was die Gemeinschaft zusammen hält. Dieses verbindende Element ist das Netz in all seinen personalen (haptischen) und auch digitalen Formen bis hin zum Crowd Funding. Netze sollen einen Nutzen haben für die Karriere, das Einkommen und für den sozialen Status. Nutzen, Zweck und Wert sind darum drei wesentliche Elemente der Netzwerkarbeit. Klaus-Dieter Müller legt dabei besonderen Wert auf die menschlichen Aspekte von Networking. Dahinter steht ein von ihm vertretenes Menschenbild, nämlich das Selbst als Dreh- und Angelpunkt seines Wirkens in der Welt. Die Identität des Individuums wird zu einem Problem der gesellschaftlichen Moderne. Es kommt nun darauf an, den Zusammenhang zwischen Selbst und Netz zu erkennen. Der Autor liefert viele Tipps, Hinweise und Erfahrungsberichte dazu, wie der Zweck und Nutzen eines Netzwerks mit den eigenen Befindlichkeiten und der Stellung in der Welt in Übereinstimmung zu bringen sind. Netzwerkarbeit ist eine Kulturtechnik, ähnlich wie Lesen und Schreiben, sie kann Gegenstand von Unterricht, Training und Beratung sein.
