Platformization has been used to describe how platforms such as Facebook, Google, Twitter, WhatsApp and TikTok have become increasingly important for how people communicate and access information, including news. But to what extent have news media systems in different countries become platformized? Using online survey data from 46 countries, we show that: (a) although over 90% of internet users use at least one social platform, there are large country differences in the proportion that use them to access news; and (b) large country difference in the proportion that still go directly to news websites and apps. Furthermore, we find (c) that country differences at least partly reflect path dependency, more specifically the historic strength of the newspaper market leading to lower levels of news platformization and continued high levels of direct access. These findings show how platformization varies in different parts of the world, provide a framework for capturing how it changes over time, and highlight the potential benefits of bringing together platform studies and comparative media systems research.

Critically understanding the platformization of the public sphere 批判性地理解公共领域的平台化

The platformization of the public sphere refers to the increasing dominance of digital platforms in shaping public discourse, access to information, and the production and dissemination of political content. The public sphere, where citizens inform themselves and engage in political debates, is being transformed by global private corporations like Alphabet and Meta. Their platforms exercise control over cultural producers, political actors, and the distribution of information and communication resources. At the same time, in a context of multiple crises of liberal democracies under capitalism, they offer personalization of content, services, and experiences contributing to the fragmentation of the political landscape. Thus, the platformized public sphere bears a fundamental contradiction in that it emerges through the dialectics between concentration and fragmentation. This has significant implications for freedom of expression, journalism, and the way public discourse is constructed and disseminated. The aim of this issue is to shed light on these fundamental stakes.
公共领域的平台化是指数字平台在塑造公共话语、获取信息以及政治内容的生产和传播方面日益占主导地位。公民自我了解和参与政治辩论的公共领域,正在被Alphabet和Meta等全球私营公司所改变。他们的平台控制着文化生产者、政治参与者以及信息和传播资源的分配。与此同时,在资本主义制度下自由民主国家多重危机的背景下,它们提供个性化的内容、服务和经验,导致政治格局的碎片化。因此,平台化的公共领域具有一个根本的矛盾,它是通过集中与分裂的辩证法产生的。这对言论自由、新闻自由以及公共话语的构建和传播方式具有重要意义。本期的目的是阐明这些基本利害关系。

Knowledge in Children’s News’, focuses on children’s news about the environment. Chapter 4, ‘From Knowledge to Efficacy: The Greening of Children’s Television’, then looks at children’s television. Chapter 5, ‘Nature on Screen: Making “the Environment” Visible in Children’s Film’, considers the role children’s films can play in enhancing knowledge and understanding about the environment. Chapter 6, ‘Young Explorers in Virtual Ecosystems: Environmental Empathy in Animated and Digital Worlds’, is also about children’s screen media but with a focus on empathy. The final chapter, ‘The Mainstreaming of Children’s Voices in Environmental Communication’, explores the powerful role young climate activists have played in recent years. All in all, this is a thought-provoking and well-researched book.

After the techlash 技术冲击之后

Regulation—The very idea In 2018, the Economist newspaper identified a ‘techlash’ that was holding Big Tech responsible for multiple imbalances and inadequacies of local and global communication systems (Economist, 2018). The immediate background was intensifying public and policy debate in the wake of Edward Snowden’s 2013 revelation of massive online surveillance by the U.S. National Security Agency, the 2018 Cambridge Analytica scandal revealing Facebook’s involvement in the monetization of personal information and its recycling for political gain, and other instances of whistleblowing exposing abuses of power in and by communication (Di Salvo, 2022). In a slightly longer historical perspective, the techlash was responding to a new category of critical infrastructure that had become entrenched in less than two decades: the internet as configured by the Big Five platforms (Alphabet [Google], Amazon, Apple, Meta [Facebook], and Microsoft). The two books I review here together offer knowledgeable and balanced guidance—in the complementary genres of textbook systematics and essayistic reflections—for readers to understand how the ‘platformization’ of the internet came about in the first place, and to reflect further on what might be the sequel to platformization. What comes after the techlash is still an open question, subject to geopolitical contestations and scholarly interventions imagining what the internet could become, beyond cycles of tech utopias and dystopias since the 1990s. The common theme of the two volumes is regulation and its constituents: Who should regulate digital platforms—the platforms themselves, communities of users, political authorities, or some public-private partnership—and what is to be regulated: technical standards, business models, freedoms of information and communication? The subtitle of the essay Review Essay
2018年,《经济学人》确定了一种“技术冲击”,认为大型科技公司应对地方和全球通信系统的多重失衡和不足负责(《经济学人》,2018年)。当前的背景是,2013年爱德华·斯诺登(Edward Snowden)揭露了美国国家安全局(nsa)的大规模在线监控活动,2018年剑桥分析公司(Cambridge Analytica)丑闻揭露了Facebook参与个人信息货币化和再利用以获取政治利益,以及其他揭露通信领域滥用权力的举报事件,公众和政策辩论不断加剧(Di Salvo, 2022)。从更长的历史角度来看,科技革命是对一种新的关键基础设施类别的回应,这种基础设施在不到20年的时间里已经根深蒂固:由五大平台(Alphabet、亚马逊、苹果、Meta和微软)配置的互联网。我在这里回顾的这两本书,以教科书系统论和散文论反思的互补形式,为读者提供了知识渊博、平衡的指导,帮助他们理解互联网的“平台化”最初是如何产生的,并进一步思考平台化的后续可能是什么。科技冲击之后会发生什么,仍是一个悬而未决的问题,除了上世纪90年代以来科技乌托邦和反乌托邦的循环之外,还会受到地缘政治争论和学术干预的影响,想象互联网会变成什么样子。这两卷书的共同主题是监管及其组成部分:谁应该监管数字平台——平台本身、用户社区、政治当局或一些公私合作伙伴关系——以及应该监管什么:技术标准、商业模式、信息和通信自由?论文的副标题

Populist disruption and the fourth age of political communication 民粹主义颠覆与政治传播的第四时代

This paper argues that understanding populism as a communicative process and contextualising its modern forms in relation to our current political communication environment improves our understanding of how it grips citizens. The paper identifies the disruptive communicative practices of modern populist politicians as characteristic of a digital media-dominated fourth age of political communication in extension of Blumler's account. It explores the reaction of the current wave of populism against institutional norms of political communication and its recognition and construction of a perceived disconnect between public representatives and citizens. The paper identifies three aspects of modern populist communication that, through this oppositional positioning, erode institutional communication in the fourth age: a populist pragmatics of disruptive symbolic action, an ontology that sees directness as the only means of breaching the divide between appearance and reality in politics, and an epistemological stance that replaces expertise with authenticity. These constitute an injection of grassroots communicative forms into institutional politics. The result is the exposition but also deepening of the lopsided efficacy of the fourth age whereby citizens feel inefficacious in relation to institutional politics but increasingly able to participate at a grassroots level.
本文认为,将民粹主义理解为一个沟通过程,并将其现代形式与我们当前的政治沟通环境联系起来,可以提高我们对民粹主义如何对待公民的理解。本文将现代民粹主义政治家的破坏性沟通实践确定为数字媒体主导的第四个政治沟通时代的特征,这是Blumler叙述的延伸。它探讨了当前民粹主义浪潮对政治沟通制度规范的反应,以及对公众代表和公民之间脱节的认识和构建。本文确定了现代民粹主义传播的三个方面,通过这种对立的定位,侵蚀了第四时代的制度传播:破坏性象征行动的民粹主义语用学,将直接性视为打破政治中表象与现实之间鸿沟的唯一手段的本体论,以及用真实性取代专业知识的认识论立场。这些构成了基层交流形式对制度政治的注入。其结果是,第四时代的不平衡效力得到了阐述,但也加深了这种效力,即公民在制度政治方面感到无能,但越来越能够在基层参与。

more confidence in their computers than smartphones. The use of smartphones by young adults leads on to the debate of ‘addiction’. Are people addicted to smartphones? This question is discussed in the last chapter of the book. For some, there is ‘a generation of smartphone and social media addicts incapable of taking their eyes off Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp’ (p. 108). For others, it is ‘a gateway into socialising’ (p. 109). The young are aware of their attachment to this technology coupled with their need to be connected, but they are also critical about such technologies having taken primacy over human relations. The authors suggest that the use of smartphones ‘must be seen as a cultural practice integrated within a more complex interweaving between consumption, production, representation, and (self) regulation practices. This enables us to go beyond the idea of addiction and embrace a vision capable of encompassing the behaviours and dynamics around young people and new communication technologies’ (p. 123). This book is the result of a well-designed research project. The authors have approached key questions from their background and expertise in sociology and culture, and these areas of interest add to its strengths. Questions relating to the use of smartphones by young people are explored by means of in-depth interviews as well as by a thorough examination of the literature relating to the usage of digital technologies. I recommend it highly for academics, researchers, educators and scholars.
对电脑比对智能手机更有信心。年轻人使用智能手机引发了关于“成瘾”的争论。人们对智能手机上瘾了吗?这个问题在本书的最后一章进行了讨论。对一些人来说,“一代智能手机和社交媒体痴迷者无法将目光从Facebook、Instagram和WhatsApp上移开”(第108页)。对其他人来说,它是“进入社交的门户”(第109页)。年轻人意识到他们对这项技术的依恋,以及他们建立联系的必要性,但他们也对这类技术凌驾于人际关系之上持批评态度。作者认为,智能手机的使用“必须被视为一种文化实践,融合在消费、生产、代表和(自我)监管实践之间更复杂的交织中。”。这使我们能够超越成瘾的概念,并接受一个能够涵盖年轻人周围的行为和动态以及新的通信技术的愿景”(第123页)。这本书是一个精心设计的研究项目的成果。作者从他们在社会学和文化方面的背景和专业知识探讨了关键问题,这些感兴趣的领域增加了它的优势。通过深入访谈以及彻底审查与数字技术使用有关的文献,探讨了与年轻人使用智能手机有关的问题。我强烈推荐给学者、研究人员、教育工作者和学者。

They Would Never Say Anything Like This! Reasons To Doubt Political Deepfakes 他们永远不会说这样的话!怀疑政治造假的理由

Although deepfakes are conventionally regarded as dangerous, we know little about how deepfakes are perceived, and which potential motivations drive doubt in the believability of deepfakes versus authentic videos. To better understand the audience's perceptions of deepfakes, we ran an online experiment ( N = 829) in which participants were randomly exposed to a politician's textual or audio-visual authentic speech or a textual or audio-visual manipulation (a deepfake) where this politician's speech was forged to include a radical right-wing populist narrative. In response to both textual disinformation and deepfakes, we inductively assessed (1) the perceived motivations for expressed doubt and uncertainty in response to disinformation and (2) the accuracy of such judgments. Key findings show that participants have a hard time distinguishing a deepfake from a related authentic video, and that the deepfake's content distance from reality is a more likely cause for doubt than perceived technological glitches. Together, we offer new insights into news users’ abilities to distinguish deepfakes from authentic news, which may inform (targeted) media literacy interventions promoting accurate verification skills among the audience.
尽管deepfakes在传统上被认为是危险的,但我们对deepfake是如何被感知的,以及哪些潜在动机导致人们对deepfokes与真实视频的可信度产生怀疑知之甚少。为了更好地理解观众对deepfakes的看法,我们进行了一项在线实验(N = 829)中,参与者被随机暴露于一位政客的文本或视听真实演讲,或一种文本或视听操纵(深度伪造),其中该政客的演讲被伪造为包含激进右翼民粹主义叙事。针对文本虚假信息和deepfakes,我们归纳评估了(1)对虚假信息表达怀疑和不确定性的感知动机,以及(2)此类判断的准确性。关键发现表明,参与者很难区分deepfake和相关的真实视频,与感知到的技术故障相比,deepfake的内容与现实的距离更可能引起怀疑。我们共同为新闻用户区分deepfakes和真实新闻的能力提供了新的见解,这可能会为(有针对性的)媒体素养干预提供信息,促进受众的准确验证技能。
