    Book SynopsisIn Discursive Disruption, Populist Communication and Democracy, Elena Block explores the links between declining democratic discourses, populist communication, and reflects on the communicative and moral dimensions of populism.Block proposes the concept of discursive disruption to help to identify, analyze and understand the disruptive power of populist speech, turning to the communicative styles of Venezuela's late President Hugo Chávez and the US's President Donald J. Trump to illustrate and support this new conceptual and analytical tool. While the mainstream political class and media traditionally sought to manage the processes of political communication, the book contends that they have now been displaced and their role has been undermined. Middle ground politics and journalism have been substituted by the adversarial rhetorical styles of populists, multiplied through multi-fragmented channels, texts and voices. With this book, Block continues her introspection Trade Review"The study of populism as a communicative phenomenon is vitally important in current times. Elena Block has made a highly valuable contribution to this field, identifying discursive commonalities in the otherwise very different political projects of Hugo Chavez and Donald Trump. This book will be keenly sought after by those studying populism as a media as well as a political phenomenon."Terry Flew, Professor of Digital Communications and Culture, The University of Sydney"Populism in its various shapes is undoubtedly a key feature of contemporary politics around the globe. When looking at the threats it poses to democracy, left-wing or right-wing authoritarian leaders show no difference: they share contempt for democratic institutions and use divisive language. This timely book provides insights on the callous communication strategies of such leaders as Trump and Chávez, reflecting on the ethical dimension of populist language and on what the author aptly terms "discursive disruption" of populism of the 21st century.Gianpietro Mazzoleni, The University of Milan"In Discursive Disruption, Populist Communication and Democracy: The Cases of Hugo Chávez and Donald J. Trump, Elena Block creates the concept of discursive disruption in order to explain how, from opposing ideologies, these leaders used their populist style to divide their audiences to the detriment of republican values. With incivility and intolerance, and this linguistic weapon, populists win the quasi-religious loyalty of their followers. Discursive disruption is a powerful framework for analysis. This book is worth considering and using for future studies."Alexandra Alvarez, Universidad de Los Andes (ULA)"This study reveals the Panglossian character of the ‘deliberative turn’ in democratic theory by drawing attention to a pathology in democratic politics: discursive disruption. By detailing how both Chavez and Trump exploited the linguistic resources that they shared with their political opponents to reduce or destroy the spaces where pluralistic dialogue had existed, this book leaves the reader with an uncomfortable question: why wouldn’t we expect this to continue?"Ryan Walter, Associate Professor, School of Political Science and International Studies, The University of Queensland"This book is a testament to the dissolving effects that populist and authoritarian political styles, notwithstanding its ideological origins, can have on democratic institutions and the public sphere. It presents a bold comparative exercise about the destruction of an emerging democracy and the troubles of a consolidated one. Elena Block's latest work will be a landmark critique on the political effects of our current media landscape, as well as on its abuses."Guillermo Tell Aveledo Coll, Dean of the Faculty of Legal and Political Studies of the Universidad Metropolitana, UNIMET"In this book, Elena Block makes an important contribution to the study of political communication, populism, democracy and discourse from a critical perspective. She proposes a conceptual and methodological framework for understanding the erosion of today´s democracies with particular reference to Hugo Chávez and Donald Trump. The concept of discursive disruption that she introduces as well as the approach that she applies to these two populist leaders serve as the starting point to analyse the style of other leaders who, although not sharing the same ideologies, are contributing to the erosion of democracies in the world and to the spread of a conflictive anti-dialogue style in political communication."Adriana Bolívar, Professor of Linguistics and Discourse Studies, Universidad Central de Venezuela“[This] text deserves circulation among political communication experts. It is an excellent account of how populism works to diminish the rights and freedom of the people, while at the same time glorifying the rhetor who seeks to profit (especially in terms of power) from its use.”Raymie E. McKerrow, International Journal of CommunicationTable of Contents1. The Disruption is Discursive 2. Democracy, trust, truths, lies, and style 3. Populist communication, discursive violence and disrupted democracy 4. The discursive disruption framework 5. Chávez and Trump as paradigms of discursive disruption 6.

    Book SynopsisThis second, thoroughly updated edition of The Routledge International Handbook of Children, Adolescents, and Media analyzes a broad range of complementary areas of study, including children as media consumers, children as active participants in media making, and representations of children in the media. The roles that media play in the lives of children and adolescents, as well as their potential implications for their cognitive, emotional, social, and behavioral development, have attracted growing research attention in a variety of disciplines. This handbook presents a collection that spans a variety of disciplines including developmental psychology, media studies, public health, education, feminist studies, and the sociology of childhood. Chapters provide a unique intellectual mapping of current knowledge, exploring the relationship between children and media in local, national, and global contexts.Divided into five parts, each with an intr
