Since the advent of social media at the turn of the 21st century, scholars of communication, cultural studies, and media studies have long been invested in the question of the relationship between social media platforms and the discursive formation of counterpublics for social movement mobilization. In this article, we seek to pose a new question for scholarly inquiry: How do citizens leverage the tools of social media platforms to reconstitute counterpublics in times of crisis? Toward this end, we conduct a comparative case study of the way citizens leverage platforms for counterpublic formation in the Republic of Georgia and the United States. Both cases represent two ends of the Janus-face of the 21st-century Internet: The Internet as a tool for public will formation that can enrich the flowering of democracy across digital spaces, and the Internet as a tool capable of undermining traditional norms of public will formation predicated on shared understanding across the public sphere(s).
自21世纪之交社交媒体出现以来,传播学、文化研究和媒体研究学者一直在研究社交媒体平台与社会运动动员的反公众话语形成之间的关系问题。在本文中,我们试图为学术探究提出一个新问题:在危机时期,公民如何利用社交媒体平台的工具来重建反公众?为此,我们对格鲁吉亚共和国和美国公民利用平台进行反公共信息形成的方式进行了比较案例研究。这两个案例都代表了21世纪互联网两面的两端:互联网作为公共意志形成的工具,可以丰富数字空间中的民主之花;互联网作为一种工具,能够破坏以公共领域的共同理解为基础的公共意志形成的传统规范。

Traditional crisis management approaches have often overlooked the role of community and nonprofit organizations. In this study, we investigated how nonprofits and communities contributed to problem-solving during crises through self-organization on social media. We applied social network analysis to 17,732 interactions using #TwitterFoodBank, a self-organized network emerged during the early stage of COVID-19 to address food insecurity. Our results highlighted the significant role of nonprofits in coordinating the community’s self-organized network. However, they also revealed a lack of coordination among these organizations in maintaining a viable network. These findings have valuable implications for nonprofits seeking to leverage the potential of online self-organized communities in crisis management.
传统的危机管理方法往往忽视了社区和非营利组织的作用。在这项研究中,我们调查了非营利组织和社区如何通过社交媒体上的自组织来解决危机。我们使用#TwitterFoodBank对17,732次互动进行了社交网络分析。#TwitterFoodBank是在2019冠状病毒病早期出现的一个自组织网络,旨在解决粮食不安全问题。我们的研究结果强调了非营利组织在协调社区自组织网络方面的重要作用。但是,它们也显示出这些组织在维持一个可行的网络方面缺乏协调。这些发现对寻求在危机管理中利用在线自组织社区潜力的非营利组织具有重要意义。

Understanding gendered transnational education mobility: Interview with Fran Martin 理解性别化的跨国教育流动:专访弗兰·马丁
Q3 COMMUNICATION Pub Date : 2023-11-13 DOI: 10.1177/20570473231209378
Fran Martin, Lin Song
In this interview, Fran Martin discusses gendered transnational education mobility in relation to research methodology, the contradictions of neoliberal ideology, and the social implications of ethnographic research. Challenging stereotypical and often biased portrayals of Chinese international students in the Anglosphere, Martin argues for the importance of attending to the irreducible details of individual life experiences and explains how to employ affective methods to convey these details to readers. Calling for attention to gender as a key perspective in understanding education mobility, she discusses how the global neoliberal discourse underpinning this form of mobility can be restricting and empowering at the same time. She also reflects on the ways in which researchers could engage with social and policy realities and contribute to improving international students’ well-being.
在这次采访中,弗兰·马丁讨论了性别跨国教育流动与研究方法、新自由主义意识形态的矛盾以及民族志研究的社会影响的关系。马丁挑战了在英语圈中对中国留学生的刻板印象和偏见,他认为关注个人生活经历中不可简化的细节很重要,并解释了如何使用情感方法向读者传达这些细节。她呼吁关注性别作为理解教育流动的关键视角,并讨论了支撑这种流动形式的全球新自由主义话语如何同时限制和赋予权力。她还思考了研究人员如何参与社会和政策现实,并为改善国际学生的福祉做出贡献。

The suspension of the micro-blogging platform, Twitter, by the federal government of Nigeria on 5 June 2021 for ‘consistent non-removal of inciting and divisive contents’, undoubtedly generated mixed feelings among social media users in and outside the country. Hinging on Ball-Rokeach & DeFleur’s Media Systems Dependency theory, this study adopts a combination of text mining, sentiment analysis and survey approaches to make evident social media users’ reactions to the Twitter ban in 2021. Of the 3885 social posts that were sampled across three platforms (Facebook, Twitter and Nairaland) between 5 June and 16 July 2021, 73% decry while just 27% extol the Twitter ban action. The Nvivo word frequency results showed that the top five keywords used across the sampled posts were: ‘end’, ‘#twitterban’, ‘unlawful’, ‘suspension’ and ‘Nigeria’ ( n = 11,925; 24%), suggesting that majority of users were unhappy with the shutdown. The complementary opinion sampling conducted on students of Nile University of Nigeria revealed that the majority of the 319 sampled respondents (264; 83%) responded to VPNs to access and use Twitter despite the ban. Among the daily Twitter habits of the respondents most affected by the shutdown were Trending Topics Search (22%), Social Engagement (20%), Daily News Search (20%), Product Search (13%), Product Marketing (10%), Customer Relations (9%), Jobs Search (4%) and others (2%). The study recommends the consideration of better sanctioning means for erring social media companies that will not stifle the exchange of ideas online in this democratic age.
尼日利亚联邦政府于2021年6月5日暂停了微博平台Twitter,理由是“持续不删除煽动和分裂的内容”,这无疑在尼日利亚国内外的社交媒体用户中引发了复杂的情绪。依赖于鲍尔-罗奇&;DeFleur的媒体系统依赖理论,本研究采用文本挖掘,情感分析和调查相结合的方法,以明确社交媒体用户对2021年Twitter禁令的反应。在2021年6月5日至7月16日期间,在三个平台(Facebook, Twitter和Nairaland)上抽样的3885条社交帖子中,73%的人谴责Twitter禁令,只有27%的人赞扬Twitter禁令。Nvivo的词频结果显示,在抽样帖子中使用最多的五个关键词是:“结束”、“#twitterban”、“非法”、“暂停”和“尼日利亚”(n = 11925;24%),这表明大多数用户对关机不满意。对尼日利亚尼罗大学学生进行的补充意见抽样显示,在319名抽样受访者中,大多数人(264;83%的受访者表示,尽管有禁令,他们还是通过vpn访问和使用Twitter。在受政府关闭影响最大的受访者的日常Twitter习惯中,趋势话题搜索(22%)、社会参与(20%)、每日新闻搜索(20%)、产品搜索(13%)、产品营销(10%)、客户关系(9%)、工作搜索(4%)和其他(2%)。该研究建议考虑对犯错的社交媒体公司采取更好的制裁手段,以免在这个民主时代扼杀在线思想交流。

There is a growing body of health communication literature addressing health-related discourse across user-generated platforms. Specifically, Reddit, the 19th most visited website in the world, serves as a promising venue for understanding communication surrounding health concerns. Such studies apply a variety of theories and methodological approaches, analyze large corpora, and build predictive and descriptive models for public health communication. The current study investigates health communication literature in the context of Reddit, identifying major topics, theories, and methods employed across studies, as well as how health communication topics have evolved over time. We identify future research directions, proposing theoretical and methodological considerations as well as issues and practices to employ when researching health phenomena via social platforms.

Let’s intervene: How platforms can combine media literacy and self-efficacy to fight fake news 让我们介入:平台如何结合媒体素养和自我效能来打击假新闻
Q3 COMMUNICATION Pub Date : 2023-10-31 DOI: 10.1177/20570473231203081
Patrick Ferrucci, Toby Hopp
In light of concerns over the spread of so-called “fake news” on social media, organizations, and policymakers have increasingly sought to identify tools that can be used to stem the dissemination of misinformation and disinformation. Some evidence suggests that brief media literacy interventions might serve as an important means of helping social media users discern between “real” and “fake” news headlines. However, empirical research indicates that these effects tend to be relatively modest in magnitude. To that end, this study explored the degree to which epistemic self-efficacy beliefs may be able to positively “boost” media literacy interventions. Specifically, we used a series of 2 × 2 experiments to test the contention that the combinatory effects of epistemic self-efficacy and media literacy interventions will better equip users with the resources necessary to discern between disinformation and objectively produced news content. The results failed to indicate the presence of combinatory effects. We did, however, find initial evidence that epistemic self-efficacy beliefs may be importantly associated with the ability to properly classify both fake and mainstream news content.
鉴于对所谓“假新闻”在社交媒体上传播的担忧,各组织和政策制定者越来越多地寻求找到可用于阻止错误信息和虚假信息传播的工具。一些证据表明,简短的媒体素养干预可能是帮助社交媒体用户区分“真实”和“虚假”新闻标题的重要手段。然而,实证研究表明,这些影响往往相对较小。为此,本研究探讨了认知自我效能感信念在多大程度上能够积极“促进”媒体素养干预。具体来说,我们使用了一系列2 × 2实验来验证认知自我效能和媒体素养干预的组合效应将更好地为用户提供必要的资源,以辨别虚假信息和客观生产的新闻内容。结果未能表明组合效应的存在。然而,我们确实发现了初步证据,表明认知自我效能感信念可能与正确分类假新闻和主流新闻内容的能力有重要关系。

Public narratives of the relationship between post-pandemic economic recovery and decarbonization: A case study of Toronto’s media sphere 流行病后经济复苏与脱碳之间关系的公共叙述:多伦多媒体领域的案例研究

Recent research indicates that the economic downturn brought by the COVID-19 pandemic has bolstered a “climate delay” discourse. This has led environmental scholars and policymakers to express concern over how the relationship between economic recovery and decarbonization is being framed in current public discussions about post-pandemic economic recovery. To better understand how the climate delay discourse is mediated by local media and its potential impact on public support for green transformation, this article examines relevant coverage published by popular Toronto local media throughout 2020. A qualitative thematic analysis reveals a rising public demand for decarbonizing the Canadian economy. However, this demand has also been challenged by a counter storyline that seeks to divert public attention from the severe structural crisis underlying the fossil fuel sector. The study concludes by cautioning against “climate delay” narratives’ potential suppression of public support for green economic recovery.
最近的研究表明,COVID-19大流行带来的经济衰退助长了“气候延迟”的言论。这使得环境学者和政策制定者对当前关于大流行后经济复苏的公开讨论中如何构建经济复苏与脱碳之间的关系表示关注。为了更好地理解气候延迟话语是如何被当地媒体中介的,以及它对公众支持绿色转型的潜在影响,本文研究了2020年多伦多当地流行媒体发表的相关报道。一项定性专题分析显示,公众对加拿大经济脱碳的需求不断上升。然而,这一需求也受到了另一种观点的挑战,这种观点试图将公众的注意力从化石燃料行业潜在的严重结构性危机上转移开。该研究最后警告称,“气候延迟”叙事可能会抑制公众对绿色经济复苏的支持。

Individuals and society as a whole seem to be particularly fearful of cancer. A web-based study with data collected from Qualtrics panels in the United States ( N = 810) was conducted to investigate the antecedents, consequences, and correlates of fear of cancer. Comparisons were made across four cancers (lung, thyroid, pancreas, and melanoma) that varied in prevalence and death rate, and three non-cancer diseases (heart attack, diabetes, and HIV/AIDS). Individuals were indeed particularly scared of cancer. Their fear was influenced by threat appraisals related to both disease and treatment side effects. Risk estimates for diseases were influenced jointly by emotion and threat appraisal.

The Obama creed in retrospect: Communicative frames and representations from an Afrocentric perspective 奥巴马信条回顾:以非洲为中心的交际框架与表述

This article takes a reflective turn by investigating Afrocentric representations in selected speeches of former US President Barack Obama through the framing analytic lens. While past research has yielded knowledge on the role of race in American politics and Obama’s identity construction, there is limited work on such representations within an Afrocentric perspective. It focuses on how Obama used his ethnic African heritage to frame his identity and politics. To be specific the study examined the presence of Afrocentric frames and predominant narratives present in selected Obama speeches. Most of Barack Obama’s communication can be viewed as a project of identity construction and dissemination. Four Afrocentric frames were unearthed. These include: (a) exceptionalism and African origins, (b) heritage and memories of a father, (c) communalism and (d) Africa and democracy. The current study contributes to research applications of the framing theory, identity construction and political image-making within the Afrocentric paradigm.
本文通过框架分析的视角,对美国前总统奥巴马演讲中以非洲为中心的表述进行了反思。虽然过去的研究已经对种族在美国政治和奥巴马身份建构中的作用产生了认识,但从非洲中心的角度来看,对这种表述的研究有限。它聚焦于奥巴马如何利用他的非洲裔血统来构建他的身份和政治。具体来说,这项研究考察了奥巴马演讲中以非洲为中心的框架和主导叙事的存在。巴拉克·奥巴马的大部分交流可以被视为一个身份构建和传播项目。出土了四个以非洲为中心的框架。其中包括:(a)例外主义和非洲起源,(b)父亲的遗产和记忆,(c)社群主义,(d)非洲和民主。本研究有助于框架理论、身份建构和政治形象塑造在非洲中心范式下的研究应用。

While past research has yielded knowledge on the role of race in American politics and Obama’s identity construction, there is limited work on such representations within an Afrocentric perspective. It focuses on how Obama used his ethnic African heritage to frame his identity and politics. To be specific the study examined the presence of Afrocentric frames and predominant narratives present in selected Obama speeches. Most of Barack Obama’s communication can be viewed as a project of identity construction and dissemination. Four Afrocentric frames were unearthed. These include: (a) exceptionalism and African origins, (b) heritage and memories of a father, (c) communalism and (d) Africa and democracy. The current study contributes to research applications of the framing theory, identity construction and political image-making within the Afrocentric paradigm.","PeriodicalId":44233,"journal":{"name":"Communication and the Public","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2023-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47142285","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Digital transnationalism in the era of China’s rise: WeChat, Chinese diaspora, misconceptions and future research 中国崛起时代的数字跨国主义:微信、中国侨民、误解和未来研究
IF 3.6 Q3 COMMUNICATION Pub Date : 2023-08-14 DOI: 10.1177/20570473231194217
Wanning Sun, Jian Xu
In the dialogue, Professor Wanning Sun, an internationally renowned scholar on media and communication in the Chinese diaspora, first introduces her new book co-authored with Professor Haiqing Yu titled Digital Transnationalism: Chinese-language Media in Australia (Brill, 2023). Professor Sun then responds to a few misconceptions that have been dominant in public discourses in the global West on the diasporic Chinese media. She argues that diasporic Chinese people’s transnational citizenship practices will become increasingly bound up with geopolitics that has significantly impacted the operation, regulation and use of Chinese social media platforms in the West. She points out that future research in ‘digital transnationalism’ of the Chinese diaspora could further explore the changing relations between Chinese digital/social media and the formation of a new kind of transnational Chinese subjectivities with a comparative approach.
在对话中,国际知名华人媒体与传播学者孙婉宁教授首先介绍了她与余海清教授合著的新书《数字跨国主义:澳大利亚的汉语媒体》(Brill,2023)。孙教授随后回应了一些误解,这些误解在全球西方关于流散的中国媒体的公共话语中占主导地位。她认为,散居海外的中国人的跨国公民身份做法将越来越与地缘政治联系在一起,地缘政治对中国社交媒体平台在西方的运营、监管和使用产生了重大影响。她指出,未来对中国侨民“数字跨国主义”的研究可以通过比较的方法进一步探索中国数字/社交媒体与一种新型跨国华人主体性形成之间不断变化的关系。
