Do the mobile-rich get richer? Internet use, travelling and social differentiations in Finland
2014
This article investigates the daily travelling practices that are related to mobile-only, fixed-only and combined mobile/fixed use of the Internet, and the social differentiations that are related to these three ways of accessing the Internet. Survey data ( N = 612) collected from Finland in 2011 are analysed. The article shows that mobile-only Internet use is not associated with particularly diverse or frequent daily travelling practices, whereas combined mobile/fixed use is. Mobile-only Internet users are, in fact, in a relatively disadvantaged position – compared with other users, they are more typically unemployed and their household income is lower. The mobility of Internet access as …

Parenting in the digital era: Protective and risk parenting styles for traditional bullying and cyberbullying victimization
2019
Abstract This study analyzes the parenting styles that could act as risk or protective factors for bullying and cyberbullying victimization in Spain, considering the predisposition to aggression of the adolescents. The protective or risk effect of parenting styles for adolescents' related behavior such as antisocial behavior, school adjustment, and self-esteem was also analyzed. Study sample was 1109 adolescents aged between 12 and 17 years (49.96%, females, M = 13.88, SD = 1.38). A 4 × 2 × 2 × 2 MANOVA was applied for the outcome variables of bullying victimization (traditional bullying and cyberbullying), antisocial behavior, school adjustment, and self-esteem; with parenting style, predi…
Hybrid Engagement: Discourses and Scenarios of Entrepreneurial Journalism
2018
Although the challenge posed by social media and the participatory turn concerns culture and values at the very heart of journalism, journalists have been reluctant to adopt participatory values and practices. To encourage audience participation and to offer journalism that is both trustworthy and engaging, journalists of the future may embrace a hybrid practice of journalistic objectivity and audience-centred dialogue. As innovative and experimental actors, entrepreneurial journalism outlets can perform as forerunners of such a culture. By analysing discourses in the “About Us” pages of 41 entrepreneurial journalism outlets, the article examines the emerging journalistic ethos of entrepren…
Documentário ficcional e responsabilidade social: a recriação da violência de gênero na televisão
2020
espanolO tratamento da violencia de genero tem experimentado uma notavel mudanca nos meios de comunicacao espanhois nas ultimas duas decadas. Propiciada pela conscientizacao e pela publicacao de codigos eticos, essa evolucao e caracterizada por abandonar o discurso que delimitava a violencia contra as mulheres na cronica de acontecimentos para aborda-la em sua dimensao de problema social com causas estruturais. Contudo, os avancos na cobertura informativa contrastam com o surgimento de modelos de docuficcao, que combinam o depoimento das vitimas e seu contexto com reconstrucoes ficcionais. Esta pesquisa tem como objetivo indagar o tratamento que esses modelos oferecem, a partir da analise d…
This time it’s different? Effects of the Eurovision Debate on young citizens’ and its consequence for EU democracy – evidence from a quasi-experiment…
2017
For the very first time in EU history, the 2014 EP elections provided citizens with the opportunity to influence the nomination of the Commission President by casting a vote for the main Europarties’ ‘lead candidates’. By subjecting the position of the Commission President to an open political contest, many experts have formulated the expectation that heightened political competition would strengthen the weak electoral connection between EU citizens and EU legislators, which some consider a root cause for the EU’s lack of public support. In particular, this contest was on display in the so-called ‘Eurovision Debate’, a televised debate between the main contenders for the Commission Presiden…

The Oblivion of Demography in Sustainability’s Studies
2017
[RESUMEN] A lo largo de la historia del Homo sapiens, su número se ha mantenido muy reducido y hubo que esperar a principios del siglo XIX para que alcanzara los mil millones. Se inició entonces un rápido crecimiento y durante el siglo XX la población mundial casi se cuadriplicó, superando los 6000 millones, lo que llevó a estudiar, con lógica preocupación, los posibles efectos de esta explosión demográfica sobre el conjunto de la biosfera y sobre la propia especie humana. Hoy, sin embargo, cuando se han sobrepasado los 7500 millones y la población mundial sigue aumentando en unos 80 millones cada año, la problemática demográfica ha dejado de tener una presencia relevante en los estudios y …
Análisis de las plataformas de crowdfunding social en el estado español: un estudio de casos
2018
Las actuales tecnologías de la información y comunicación han propiciado un incremento en la capacidad de agrupación virtual de la sociedad, a través de la generación de un nutrido y variado conjunto de espacios de colaboración y participación comunicativa. Ello ha generado un nuevo marco de oportunidades de fundraising para el Tercer Sector de acción social español, frente al progresivo deterioro experimentado en su financiación tradicional a raíz de la crisis económica. Un nuevo marco donde se encuentra una herramienta con potencial para reconfigurar cualitativamente las estructuras de fundraising de las entidades sociales, dando cabida a una democratización financiera desde su propia bas…
Violent Conflict and Online Segregation: An Analysis of Social Network Communication Across Ukraine's Regions
2016
Does the intensity of a social conflict affect political division? Traditionally, social cleavages are seen as the underlying cause of political conflicts. It is clear, however, that a violent conflict itself can shape partisan, social, and national identities. In this paper, we ask whether social conflicts unite or divide the society by studying the effects of Ukraine's military conflict with Russia on online social ties between Ukrainian provinces (oblasts). In order to do that, we collected original data on the cross-regional structure of politically relevant online communication among users of VKontakte social networking site. We analyze the panel of provinces spanning the most active p…
