Taylor & Francis Automated Media
Book SynopsisIn this era of pervasive automation, Mark Andrejevic provides an original framework for tracing the logical trajectory of automated media and their social, political, and cultural consequences. This book explores the cascading logic of automation, which develops from the information collection process through to data processing and, finally, automated decision making. It argues that pervasive digital monitoring combines with algorithmic decision making and machine learning to create new forms of power and control that pose challenges to democratic forms of accountability and individual autonomy alike. Andrejevic provides an overview of the implications of these developments for the fate of human experience, describing the bias of automation through the logics of pre-emption, operationalism, and framelessness. Automated Media is a fascinating and groundbreaking new volume: a must-read for students and researchers of critical media studies interested in the intersectionsTable of Contents1. Intro 2. Bias of Automation 3. Automated Culture 4. Pre-emption 5. The Operational City 6. Framelessness 7. Desire 8. Conclusion

Taylor & Francis Ltd Globalism and Gendering Cancer Tracking the Trope
Book SynopsisThis book connects a rhetorical examination of medical and public health policy documents with a humanistic investigation of cultural texts to uncover the link between gendered representations of health and cancer. The author argues that in western biomedical contexts cancer is considered a women's disease and their bodies are treated as inherently oncogenic or cancer-producing, which leads to biomedical practices that adversely impact their bodily autonomy. She examines how these biases traverse national boundaries by examining the transmission of biomedical cancer practices from the US and international organizations to Kenya. This book is suited to scholars and students working in the fields of Rhetorics of Health and Medicine, Medical Humanities and Gender Studies. It is also of interest to medical professionals and readers interested in globalism and global health.Table of ContentsChapter One: Introduction: Rhetorical Checkpoints Chapter Two: Oncogenic Women in a Cancer Culturescape Chapter Three: Tracing Kenya’s Culturescape: Cancer as Gendered Weakness in Place of Destiny Chapter Four: Kenyan Healthscapes: Oncogenic Women in the Nairobi Cancer Registry Chapter Five: Kenya’s Health Professionals Speak: Attitudes about Cancer in the Field Chapter Six: Conclusion: Saratani Going Forward

Taylor & Francis Sadomasochism Popular Culture and Revolt A
Book SynopsisSadomasochism, Popular Culture and Revolt: A Pornography of Violence explores powerful connections between violent pornography and current gender wars, generational conflicts, political struggles, and racial and ethnic unrest. Long before these conflicts dominated headlines worldwide, they become embedded and contextualized in popular culture. Tracing the history of todayâs popular porn genres, including torture porn, revenge porn, war porn, and fascist porn, Tom Pollard reveals a sadomasochistic trope of fictional and real sexual violence and sexual justice that had largely remained hidden and suppressed. Today it has exploded into public awareness by mass movements like #MeToo demanding justice for sexual assault victims. This movement joins other recent social movements, including Black Lives Matter and advocates of safety from gun violence, which, along with #MeToo, constitute a revolt of submissives no longer willing to endure unwanted violence.This thoughtful examination of the history and content of violent pornography reveals portentous patterns and developing trends. By examining pornographyâs violent content, Pollard forces us to confront wider social and cultural violence. Sadomasochism, Popular Culture and Revolt will be of great interest to scholars of gay and lesbian studies and queer studies, while being a vital text for undergraduate and graduate instructors of social movement studies in sociology, political science, American Studies, and history.Table of ContentsPreface 1. Sex and Violence 2. Pornography Defined 3. Revenge 4. Torture 5. War 6. Fascism 7. Sadomasochistic Society and the Submissive Revolt

Taylor & Francis Ltd Performance Studies The Basics
Book SynopsisPerformance Studies: The Basics offers an overview of the multiple, often overlapping definitions of performance, from performance art, performance as everyday life, and rituals, to the performative dimensions of identity, such as gender, race and sexuality. This book defines the interdisciplinary field of performance studies as it has evolved over the past four decades at the intersection of academic scholarship and artistic and activist practices. It discusses performance as an important means of communicating and of understanding the world, highlighting its intersections with critical theory and arguing for the importance of performance in the study of human behaviour and social practices.Complete with a helpful glossary and bibliography, as well as suggestions for further reading, this book is an ideal starting point for those studying performance studies as well as for general readers with an interest in the subject.Trade Review'If you are looking for rigorous, accessible and bracingly contemporary answers to the "what", "how" and "why" of performance studies, you will find them in Performance Studies: The Basics. This meticulous introduction outlines the field’s complex and contested genealogies, its theoretical infrastructures, and its methodological possibilities. It efficiently and evocatively captures performance studies’ scope, models its ethical commitments, and details its diversity: a "must-read" for students and faculty from high school to grad school.'—Judith Hamera, Princeton University'This book is a necessity and an inspiration to read from the high school classroom to the university seminar, from the dramatic stage to the lecture podium, and from those who are new to performance studies to those who founded the field. The brilliance of the book is its breadth and depth enhanced by its clarity. Micu opens new questions on the intersections of performance theory and everyday life, on performance history and social activism, and on how performance methods can both change and connect us in the ways we make social life and worlds. This book is a treasure. I wish Performance Studies: The Basics was available to me (or one just like it) during my fifty years of teaching theatre and performance studies. I am grateful to learn from it now.'—D.

Bringing together theoretical, methodological, and practical chapters, this book presents a unique opportunity for environmental communication scholars to critically reflect on the past, examine present trends, and start envisioning exciting new methodologies, theories, and areas of research. Chapters feature authors from a wide range of countries to critically review the genesis and evolution of environmental communication research and thus analyze current issues in the field from a truly international perspective, incorporating diverse epistemological perspectives, exciting new methodologies, and interdisciplinary theoretical frameworks. The handbook seeks to challenge existing dominant perspectives of environmental communication from and about populations in the Global South and disenfranchised populatTrade Review"The Handbook of International Trends in Environmental Communication brings together a brilliant group of interdisciplinary scholars to offer the latest theoretical and methodological developments in the field of environmental communication. This significant volume offers insights to environmental communication research by integrating cutting-edge approaches such as neuroimaging, and virtual and augmented reality.

Taylor & Francis Rethinking Public Relations
This new (third) edition of Rethinking Public Relations continues the argument of previous editions that public relations is weak propaganda. However, while earlier editions focused on PR as representative of the uneven power distribution in society, this book goes further, conceiving the power of PR as more than just structural but also as having an important rhetorical component. In this extensively revised edition, Moloney and McGrath dissect the nature of the modern PR industry, arguing that its idealised self-presentation should be replaced by a more realistic and credible defence of the societal value produced by advocacy and counter-advocacy. This book includes expanded coverage of PR's impact on society (through areas such as CSR, sponsorship and community relations), its relationship with stakeholders, and its role in democratic debate and public policy making. It also considers the ways in which journalism has capitulated to PR in an era of fake news' and c
