As social media becomes a more potent force in society, particularly for younger generations, the role in activism has been contested. This qualitative study examines 35 interviews with students regarding their perceptions of the use of social media in social change, their perceptions of activists, and their level of self-identification as an activist. Data suggest that students use media to engage in offline participation in activist causes, because offline presents a “safe” place to begin their involvement. Findings also point to the unified pejorative connotations of the term “activist”, yet also demonstrate ways that students transform the negative stereotype of activists in a way that creates a more positive image of activists. Most participants in the study were able to see sufficient positive characteristics in behaviors they associated with activism to prompt the students to identify themselves as “activists” or “aspiring activists”. We offer 3 practical recommendations for teachers who seek to increase service learning vis a vis activism in their classrooms.

En su libro (Movimientos sociales en el siglo XXI. Buenos Aires: clacso), el sociólogo Geoffrey Pleyers (2018) identifica rasgos esenciales de los nuevos actores y procesos de cambio a escala global. Con una reflexión que nace del acompañamiento de luchas en todo el orbe, el autor habla de alteractivismo y espacios de experiencia, de gramáticas de acción basadas en la razón y en la subjetividad. Los alteractivistas son, para Pleyers (2018: 67) una suerte de electrones libres, “individuos que guardan su distancia respecto de cualquier organización, pero que interactúan según les parece mejor con grupos, redes u organizaciones que más coinciden con sus ideas y con el tipo de organización que quieren llevar a cabo.Global alter-activism: a suggestive lookAbstractIn his book (Social movements in the 21st century.

The alteractivists are, for Pleyers (2018: 67) a kind of free electrons, "individuals who keep their distance from any organization, but who interact as they think best with groups, networks or organizations that most coincide with their ideas and with the type of organization they want to carry out.Alter-activisme global: un regard suggestifRésuméDans son livre (Movimientos sociales en el siglo XXI.

Abstract: In this paper, a case is made for a critical re-examination of current trends in art education which support the adoption of inherently politically motivated curricula. The author examines the historical influence of Postmodernism upon both the fields of art and education, and goes on to argue that the potential for art to serve as a vehicle for ideology has caused many art educators to mistakenly conflate their moral role as teachers with their drive to disseminate their personally held political beliefs.Key words: Arts; Education; Ideology; Morality; Dewey; ActivismRésumé : Cet article établit le bien-fondé d’une révision critique des tendances actuelles dans le domaine de l’éducation artistique qui favorisent l’adoption de programmes à caractère intrinsèquement politiques.

This article explores how Estonian LGBT activists make sense of their own activism. We analyze the activists’ perceptions of their activism, their identities and how those identities are deployed for action. All of these are, in turn, situated in how activists understand the broader Estonian LGBT community, and Estonian society’s historico-politically complex relationship with activism as such. The article is theoretically grounded within the new social movement theories and theories of emergent LGBT and activist identities. The analyzed material consists of interviews, observations, documents and meeting notes gathered via ethnographic fieldwork with Estonian LGBT activists in 2012–2013. Pragmatic and iterative qualitative analysis revealed that the activists studied resist the activist identity, and perceive there to be a weak collective identity among the broader Estonian LGBT population. However, the lobbying for the Registered Partnership Law (passed in 2014) brought a shift in LGBT activists’ ways of enacting their identities and their perception of the possibility of LGBT activism in Estonia.

Students involved in social justice activist groups and activities encounter several potentially negative consequences in advocating for issues that are important to them. Through duoethnographic interviews with scholar-activists, former youth activists describe the barriers they experienced as socially engaged young people, including dealing with pushback from their cultural, school, and even activist communities. Without adult allies to help mentor them through these processes, the negative emotions associated with these encounters can lead youth to burn out and leave activism altogether. The findings of this study remind educators that they have an important role to play in providing meaningful activist training, apprenticeship opportunities, and supports for youth who are passionately engaged in progressive social and political action.

Full textAbstract:
Agency theory is the dominant theory of shareholder activism and argues that activist investors function as external governance monitors. Agency theory predicts that activist investors will tend to target firms who exhibit governance and performance problems. However, given limited resources and time, activist investors must often decide between selecting targets with particularly strong agency and performance problems and those where their activism efforts are most likely to succeed. Social movement scholars point out that, in social movement contexts, the corporate opportunity structure affects when and where activism is likely to arise. We draw on insights from social movement scholarship and agency theory to advance a theory of heterogeneity in shareholder activism. We argue that an activist’s access to power and resources shapes its target selection, particularly the activist’s preference for targeting firms with greater agency problems or where contextual factors favor chances of success. Whereas more powerful activists are able to wield their power as effective governance monitors against firms with substantial agency problems, less powerful activists must strategically select targets of opportunity by choosing firms where contextual factors improve their odds of success. We test these propositions using an innovative relational approach that can simultaneously incorporate firm traits, activist identities, and endogenous dynamics.

Abstract Animal activists serve as symptom-bearers for trans-species collective trauma within Western-industrial society. Findings from literature on traumatology and nonhuman animal activism, contemporary discourse, and the voices of ten activists currently in the field suggest that many animal activists suffer some form of trauma. Activist trauma arises through overlapping, complex relational processes of intersubjective attunement with nonhuman animals and embeddedness within a human social context that disavows nonhuman suffering. In understanding activist trauma as a symptom of a dysfunctional system, I depathologize activist suffering and view activists as integral members of a whole society that seeks healing.

Prior conceptual work on union renewal places activism in a central role. Understanding of activism’s antecedents, however, remains limited. This study uses a sample of faculty union members at a large public university, thus providing considerable diversity in work settings within a single employer organization. Using survey and archival data, this study explores the role of selected contextual factors on faculty labor activism. A tentative but interesting finding is that linkages to other activists appear to be a stronger predictor of individual activism than does departmental membership density. That is, it seems that “subcultures of apathy” can exist in even high membership density settings and that social ties to activists may spur members to heightened levels of activism.

Despite the recent re-emergence of the athlete activist into public consciousness, activism among athletes continues to be viewed as nonnormative behavior. Drawing from interviews with 31 National Collegiate Athletic Association Division I collegiate athlete activists from across the United States, this study examined contemporary definitions of collegiate athlete activism for advancing social justice efforts. Five different conceptualizations of social justice activism emerged during the interviews: activism as social justice action, mentorship, authenticity, intervention, and public acts of resistance. Findings document changing notions of athlete activism and reveal nuanced forms of situational activism that do not rely on public expressions of resistance but rather are woven carefully into the fabric that makes up the athletes’ everyday lives. For these athletes, the image of an activist is not so much that of one walking in the streets but rather that of one using the social power they have as an athlete to promote strategic change in everyday situations. Limitations, directions for future research, and implications for praxis are discussed.

Full textAbstract:
Motivés par des articles et des discussions récentes sur les valeurs monétaires par rapport aux valeurs sociales, j'ai un grand intérêt à étudier l'impact des valeurs sociales ou de la responsabilité sociale des entreprises (“CSR”) sur les valeurs des entreprises. Le chapitre un et le chapitre deux étudient tous deux l'activisme des actionnaires sur les questions de CSR, tout en ayant des objectifs différents. Le premier chapitre étudie les propositions d'actionnaires déposées par des fonds socialement responsables (“SRIs”) en utilisant un échantillon collecté à la main. Le premier chapitre fournit des statistiques descriptives sur ces propositions et examine les caractéristiques de l'entreprise cible. Deuxièmement, à l'aide de la méthodologie de l'étude des événements, il examine la réaction du marché autour du dépôt de la proposition et constate une réaction positive du marché à ces propositions. Troisièmement, il examine l’horizon à plus long terme et étudie l’impact à long terme de ces propositions sur la valeur marchande, la performance opérationnelle et la performance sociale des entreprises. Le deuxième chapitre étudie un échantillon plus large de propositions d'actionnaires déposées par différentes parties, notamment des investisseurs institutionnels (par exemple, fonds de pension, fonds SRI), des syndicats, des fondations, des groupes religieux et des particuliers. Le chapitre deux se concentre plus sur l'identification de l'impact des différents déclarants sur le résultat de la proposition, et les résultats montrent que les investisseurs institutionnels tels que les fonds SRI et les fonds de pension sont des déclarants plus performants. Si une proposition est déposée par des fonds SRI ou des fonds de pension, elle a beaucoup plus de chances de réussir et recevoir des votes plus favorables. La réaction du marché aux activités de dépôt de propositions est également positive pour ces déposants et a également une incidence à long terme sur les entreprises cibles. Le chapitre trois étudie la performance des fonds SRI. En choisissant une période de temps particulière (c’est-à-dire la crise financière), elle tente de séparer la performance des investissements des fonds des rendements générés par des groupes spécifiques d’entreprises (c’est-à-dire les entreprises ayant de bonnes notes CSR). Les résultats montrent que ces SRIs génèrent des rendements inférieurs à ceux des fonds conventionnels pendant la crise, alors que ces entreprises obtiennent en moyenne des rendements plus élevés pendant la crise, comme le suggèrent d'autres études (Lins et al. 2017). Cependant, ce résultat ne persiste pas après la crise financière dans l'échantillon correspondant. La volatilité des flux des SRIs est inférieure à celle des fonds conventionnels. L'analyse de la sensibilité des flux dans une régression linéaire par morceaux montre que les SRIs attirent plus de flux que les fonds conventionnels après avoir contrôlé divers autres facteurs. Une analyse plus poussée montre que les SRIs ont tendance à avoir un horizon d'investissement plus long et à vendre moins pendant la crise. Il aborde également les raisons potentielles et les motivations des investisseurs en examinant les flux de fonds SRI, les sensibilités aux performances des flux, horizons des investisseurs et les activités de vente pendant la criseMotivated by papers and recent talks on monetary values versus social values, I have great interest in studying how social values or corporate social responsibility (“CSR”) could impact firm values. Recent studies have shown that there are mainly three potential channels, through which CSR affects firm value. Firstly, employees help create firm value. Employee welfare is part of CSR (measured by MSCI ESG KLD Statistics, known as KLD scores), and employee satisfaction improves firm value shown by positive long-term abnormal stock market returns. (eg. Edmans 2011) Secondly, customers strongly link to firm value. Product quality and safety are part of CSR, and product characteristics are the main reasons directly linked to customer purchasing decisions, especially for firms in manufacturing and retail industries. Moreover, part of the customers may be socially conscious and are sensitive to firms’ actions towards environmental, community or human rights issues. They may form updated opinion of the firm based on their CSR activities and thus influence their purchasing decisions. Papers find that firms with more customer awareness benefit more from CSR. (eg. Servaes and Tamayo 2013) Thirdly, investors are associated with firm value. Investors, especially socially-conscious investors help discipline the firms’ CSR activities. Shareholder proposal is one good venue where they raise their voice and engage in the firms. Investors could use exit strategy to sell their shares, and changes in investment flows could affect firms’ value. (eg. Bialkowski & Starks 2016) The third channel, investors’ engagements in CSR issues in the firm and their association with firm value implications, as well as the related SRI investment performance are the main focus of this dissertation

Cette dissertation étudie les conséquences des relations complexes entre les entreprises et les diverses parties prenantes non commerciales. Le premier essai tente de déterminer si l'activité politique des entreprises (APE) contribue à maintenir les avantages concurrentiels. Les recherches antérieures n'abordent pas cette question et se contentent d’estimer si l'APE augmente les bénéfices, avec des résultats mitigés sur de courtes échelles de temps. Nous théorisons sur la manière dont le capital politique affecte la régression vers la moyenne des bénéfices, par le biais de mécanismes de persistance de l'entreprise et du secteur. En utilisant des données sur plus de 6 000 entreprises de 14 pays démocratiques, nous estimons des coefficients de persistance de la performance variant dans le temps et spécifiques à l'entreprise avec des modèles à coefficients aléatoires et des mesures de volatilité des bénéfices. La triangulation sur diverses méthodes d'identification suggère que la demi-vie du capital politique est plus courte que prévu, et l’est également par rapport à d'autres interventions stratégiques. Les connexions politiques sont très peu efficaces pour maintenir la performance et réduire la volatilité, puisqu’elles retardent la convergence des bénéfices de 0,180 an seulement et sont sans effet au-delà de sept ans. Le deuxième essai met en évidence les compromis impliqués dans la relation des entreprises avec deux parties prenantes non marchandes : les politiciens et les activistes sociaux. Cette étude soutient que la présence de connexions politiques au sein du conseil d'administration augmente la sensibilité de l'entreprise aux actions militantes, en raison, i. des objectifs contradictoires de ces deux acteurs non marchands, et ii. de la perception d'une plus grande sensibilité des entreprises connectées aux attentes de la société. En outre, à l'aide d'un modèle analytique simple, je démontre que cet effet dépend fortement du niveau d'adoption des politiques ESG (politiques sociales, de gouvernance et relatives aux salariés) par les entreprises, de sorte qu’à des niveaux plus élevés d'adoption des politiques ESG, la responsabilité de la connectivité se dissipe (ou diminue considérablement). Les deux propositions sont étayées de façon adéquate par l'analyse empirique. Sur le plan théorique, en révélant un déterminant spécifique à l'entreprise des actions militantes, cette étude nous rapproche de la définition de la « structure d'opportunité de l'entreprise » pour l'activisme, tout en caractérisant mieux les compromis complexes intervenant dans les relations des entreprises avec les différentes parties prenantes. Enfin, le troisième essai étudie les motivations des entreprises à adopter des pratiques de RSE (responsabilité sociale des entreprises). J'adopte le point de vue de « l’assurance-risque » sur l'engagement RSE des entreprises pour soutenir que, face à un changement brutal du paysage institutionnel, conduisant à un assouplissement considérable des règles et réglementations relatives à la durabilité, les entreprises seraient désireuses d'améliorer de manière proactive la performance sociale de l'entreprise (PSE), afin de neutraliser la responsabilité associée à l'intégration dans un régime mettant peu l’accent sur la RSE. Cette étude utilise la victoire de Trump à l'élection présidentielle américaine de 2016 comme un événement exogène qui a entraîné une réduction marquée de l'importance accordée par le gouvernement américain aux politiques liées à la durabilité. L'analyse Diff-in-diff sur un échantillon apparié d'entreprises américaines et non américaines suggère qu'en moyenne, les entreprises américaines ont amélioré leur empreinte de durabilité après l'élection de Trump. Une hétérogénéité considérable a été observée sur la base des tendances idéologiques des entreprises : les entreprises non partisanes ont rapporté un degré d'amélioration sensiblement plus faible que leurs homologues partisanesThis dissertation investigates the consequences of the complex relationships between firms and various non-market stakeholders. The first essay examines if corporate political activity (CPA) helps sustain competitive benefits. Prior literature does not address this question, only whether CPA increases profits – with mixed results over short timescales. We theorize about how political capital affects the regression-to-the-mean of profits through firm and industry persistence mechanisms. Using data on over 6,000 firms from 14 democratic countries, we estimate time-varying, firm-specific performance persistence coefficients with random-coefficient models - and profit volatility measures. Triangulation over various identification methods suggests that the half-life of political capital is shorter than expected, and also compared with other strategy interventions. Political connections are marginally effective at sustaining performance and reducing volatility, delaying profit convergence by only 0.180 years – and with no effect beyond seven years. These modest CPA benefits are further curbed by legislative constraints and political stability. The second essay highlights the tradeoffs involved in the firms’ relationship with two non-market stakeholders: politicians and social activists. This study argues that the presence of board political connections increases the susceptibility of the firm to activist actions – owing to, i. the conflicting objectives of these two non-market actors, and ii. the perceived higher sensitivity of connected firms to societal expectations. Furthermore, using a simple analytical model, I demonstrate that this effect is strongly contingent on the firms’ level of ESG (employee, social and governance policies) adoption – such that, at higher levels of ESG adoption, the liability of connectedness dissipates (or diminishes considerably). Both propositions find adequate support in the empirical analysis.Theoretically, by revealing a firm-specific determinant of activist actions, this study takes us a step closer towards defining the ‘corporate opportunity structure’ for activism, while also better characterizing the complex trade-offs involved in the firms’ relationship with various stakeholders. Finally, the third essay examines firms’ motivations for adopting CSR (corporate social responsibility) practices. I adopt the ‘risk-insurance’ view of firms’ CSR engagement to argue that when faced with an abrupt change in the institutional landscape leading to considerable muting of the rules and regulations pertaining to sustainability, firms would be keen to proactively improve corporate social performance (CSP) in order to neutralize the liability associated with being embedded in a low CSR-emphasis regime. The study uses Trump’s win in the 2016 US Presidential election as an exogenous event that resulted in a marked reduction in the US govt’s emphasis on sustainability related policies. Diff-in-diff analysis on a matched sample of US and non-US firms suggest that, on average, US firms improved their sustainability footprint after Trump’s election. Considerable heterogeneity was observed based on firms’ ideological proclivities: non-partisan firms reported a significantly lower magnitude of improvement compared to their partisan counterparts

Tableau d’honneur de la Faculté des études supérieures et postdoctorales, 2009-2010Ancrée dans la perspective de l'économie politique, cette thèse porte sur les pratiques expressives et les projets politico-culturels de plusieurs groupes d'activistes culturels de la ville de Puebla. au Mexique. Nous défendons la thèse selon laquelle l'étude des pratiques en question nécessite une analyse détaillée de l'ensemble des conditions socioéconomiques et politiques se trouvant à leur base, et non seulement une analyse interprétative de leurs dimensions identitaires et symboliques, tel que proposé par d'autres études sur la jeunesse. Ce positionnement analytique a entraîné la discussion et révision de concepts propres aux études des jeunes, comme production et consommation culturelle, style, transgression, production et construction de l'espace urbain, etc. Le travail ethnographique fut réalisé auprès de divers groupes des jeunes connus sous l'appellation de collectifs et qui mènent des projets culturels dans la ville de Puebla. Les espaces semi-privés et publics fréquentés par ces groupes ont aussi constitué l'objet de recherche de cette thèse. Une attention spéciale a été accordée à l'étude des formes d'accès des activistes à ces espaces. En général, les résultats du travail montrent que, malgré leur caractère contestataire et leur richesse discursive, les pratiques mises de l'avant par les activistes à l'étude ne peuvent échapper aux rapports sociaux et aux dynamiques économiques, politiques et culturelles qui configurent, dans une logique capitaliste, l'espace urbain et régional à Puebla. Ces dynamiques ne sont cependant pas conçues comme univoques, mais plutôt comme complexes et contradictoires. Le modèle analytique de la recherche comprend des apports conceptuels tels que l'inclusion de l'analyse régionale dans l'étude des pratiques des jeunes, l'insertion de ces dernières dans une approche tenant en compte les conflits et les négociations reliées à la reproduction de l'espace urbain et, enfin, la mise en évidence de la dimension politique des pratiques expressives des jeunes.

The beginning of the 21st century witnessed the birth of social networks, which took personal and social communications to new heights. These new means of communication, supported by ever-changing information and communication technologies, allowed for the creation of new, multidisciplinary and multicultural spheres of discussion. In this context, new media usage by political activist movements has attracted the attention of the academic community over recent years. Recently, a new actor has appeared in this field: Catalonia. This autonomous region in Spain has witnessed the biggest demonstrations in Europe in recent times, with hundreds of thousands clogging the streets calling for Catalan independence. Our study focuses on the various theories of social movements and political activism, how do these relate to new media and new technologies, and how these apply to the Catalan case, while comparing the characteristics of the Catalan protests to others such as the Arab Spring, the Egyptian Revolution, the 15-M Indignados movement, or the Occupy Wall Street marches.

Full textAbstract:
Longtemps considérés comme des actionnaires passifs, inorganisés, voire divisés, les actionnaires minoritaires mécontents se coalisent dans le but de faire entendre leur voix dans la gestion des sociétés et de tenter, sinon de conquérir le contrôle de la société, du moins d'influer sur la valeur de leurs titres. Inspirée de la "judiciarisation" systématique des contestations par les actionnaires minoritaires et de l'abondance des travaux américains relatifs aux "batailles de procuration" et à l'activisme institutionnel, nous nous sommes interrogée sur les caractéristiques des entreprises françaises visées par des actionnaires minoritaires mécontents, sur les facteurs explicatifs du succès de leurs dissensions et sur les effets de ce processus de contestations sur la valeur" actionnariale". Conformément au modèle américain, l'activisme peut être défini comme un processus long et complexe formé par un ensemble d'activités d'influence combinant les ressources, les capacités et les compétences d'un ensemble d'actionnaires minoritaires, plus ou moins actifs. Toutefois, compte tenu du contexte institutionnel français et notamment du droit d'action reconnu à la minorité, ce processus de contestations diffère en de nombreux points des études américaines. A partir du cadre d'analyse de la gouvemance, notre modèle théorique de l'activisme repose sur l'étude des stratégies de la coalition minoritaire dissidente et des stratégies de neutralisation des mécanismes de gouvernement des entreprises par une coalition de contrôle formée de l'équipe de direction et d'actionnaires affiliés. Par le biais de plusieurs études quantitatives, nous avons déterminé que les actionnaires minoritaires choisissent de mettre en œuvre un processus d'activisme suite à l'évaluation d'un risque de faillite élevé d'une entreprise à cotation multiple qui choisit d'utiliser plusieurs clauses anti-OPA. L'activisme des actionnaires minoritaires se traduit essentiellement par un ensemble d'activités judiciaires et "associationnelles" accompagnées ou non de "batailles de procuration" ponctuelles. Favorisées par l'existence d'imprécisions sur des notions juridiques et la présence d'associations d'actionnaires ou d'investisseurs, ces activités garantissent le succès de la dissidence des actionnaires minoritaires. Toutefois, l'absence de réaction boursière le jour de l'annonce publique de la mise en place d'un processus d'activisme témoigne d'une faible visibilité publique de la cause des actionnaires minoritaires dissidents.

Los seis artículos que la componen contribuyen, de este modo, a aumentar la comprensión de las actitudes informativas de las personas jóvenes en etapas, edades y contextos distintos. A partir de una primera aproximación al consumo mediático de jóvenes adolescentes en sus rutinas diarias, la tesis se adentra en un contexto específico (el activismo) y en una práctica mediática definida (la búsqueda de información). El resultado presenta un escenario amplio y completo de la ecología de medios de las personas jóvenes y, concretamente, de los/las jóvenes activistas de los nuevos movimientos en red como el Movimiento 15M o el Umbrella Movement. De este modo, nuestra investigación aporta conocimientos sobre un segmento de la población de vital importancia para comprender el futuro de la comunicación, dada su condición de ciudadanos jóvenes, activos y comprometidos con la sociedad. Además, aporta modelos de análisis que pueden ser utilizados para futuras investigaciones o por parte de otros investigadores.Aquesta tesi presenta una exploració global de l'ús de mitjans i informació d'actualitat a partir de l'estudi de les generacions més joves, tant en el seu dia a dia així com en situacions excepcionals. Hem abordat l’estudi dels hàbits de consum de mitjans, notícies i informació de joves i activistes, els suports utilitzats per consumir informació d'actualitat, les motivacions per consumir-la d'un mitjà o d’un altre, amb un suport o un altre i què esperen les persones joves dels continguts informatius. Es tracta d'una tesi doctoral per compendi d'articles. Sis són els articles que la composen i que contribueixen a incrementar la comprensió de les actituds informatives de les persones joves en etapes, edats i contextos diferents. A partir d'una primera aproximació al consum mediàtic de joves adolescents en les seves rutines diàries, la tesi s'endinsa en un context específic (l’activisme) i en una pràctica mediàtica definida (la cerca d’informació). Els resultats presenten un escenari ampli i complert de l'ecologia de mitjans de les persones joves i, concretament, dels i les joves activistes dels nous moviments en xarxa com el Moviment 15M o l’Umbrella Movement. D'aquesta manera, la nostra investigació aporta coneixement sobre un segment de la població d'importància vital per comprendre el futur de la comunicació, donada la seva condició de ciutadans joves, actius i compromesos amb la societat. A més, aporta models d'anàlisi que poden ser utilitzats per a futures investigacions i/o per part d'altres investigadors.
The thesis presents a global exploration of youth information behaviour, both in their daily lives and in specific situations. Media and information consumption habits among young people and young activists have been studied, as well as the media used for news consumption, the motivations to choose information from one media or another, and youth expectations about news content. This is a thesis submitted in the form of compendium of publications. Each of the six papers contributes to enhance the understanding of young people’s information behaviour in different stages, ages and contexts. The first approach is made through teenagers’ media habits. Afterwards, the thesis delves into a specific context (activism) and a particular media practice (keeping up with the news). The results show us a broad and comprehensive picture of young people’s media ecology. More concretely, it sheds light on the ecology of young activists who participated in the so-called networked social movements, such as the 15M Movement or the Umbrella Movement. Therefore, our research provides insight into a crucial age group that can help us to understand future trends of the communicative landscape. The thesis also provides models of analysis that can be used for future research and/or by other researchers.

Full textAbstract:
Aquesta tesi descriu etnogràficament l'establiment recent de la dissidència lingüística a les illes Balears, entesa com l'assentament en el camp sociopolític de l'arxipèlag d'una creença que reivindica que el «balear», i no l'actual llengua catalana, ha de compartir oficialitat amb el castellà com a autèntica llengua pròpia. Tres associacions d'activistes lingüístics creades el 2013 són les responsables d'aquest moviment. Aquesta tesi analitza aproximadament dos anys d'activitat a les xarxes socials d'aquestes tres associacions, a més d'altres materials. L'anàlisi mostra com els activistes es van implicar en un afany per legitimar un estàndard alternatiu basat en ideologies d'autenticitat, el qual simultàniament afermava i potenciava el valor d'anonimat del castellà. Les xarxes socials van ser fonamentals per a aquests objectius, atès que van oferir als activistes un control representatiu per a articular discursos lingüístics i per a patrullar i avaluar pràctiques lingüístiques davant dels seus seguidors. Aquesta tesi també examina les implicacions d'aquests esdeveniments per a l'estandardització de la llengua catalana, mitjançant entrevistes a onze tècnics lingüístics de diferents institucions de les illes Balears i dos activistes favorables a la normalització del català. Les entrevistes van proporcionar perspectives sobre la manera com els agents institucionals controlen i practiquen la varietat estàndard. Un cop identificada una distribució vertical de les pràctiques de la varietat estàndard entre els actors institucionals, l'anàlisi se centra en l'ús de les xarxes socials que fa una tècnica lingüística que treballa en l'àmbit local. En resum, aquesta tesi presenta tres arguments: a) l'adopció estratègica d'un règim d'estàndard lingüístic pels activistes dissidents, b) l'existència d'una necessitat d'identificació en el mercat lingüístic balear, i c) la influència de la minorització sobre l'estandardització.Esta tesis describe etnográficamente el establecimiento reciente de la disidencia lingüística en las islas Balears, entendida como el asentamiento en el campo sociopolítico del archipiélago de una creencia que reivindica que el «balear», y no la actual lengua catalana, tiene que compartir oficialidad con el castellano como auténtica lengua propia. Tres asociaciones de activistas lingüísticos creadas en 2013 son las responsables de este movimiento. Esta tesis analiza aproximadamente dos años de actividad en las redes sociales de estas tres asociaciones, además de otros materiales. El análisis muestra cómo los activistas se implicaron en un afán por legitimar un estándar alternativo basado en ideologías de autenticidad, el cual simultáneamente aseguraba y potenciaba el valor de anonimidad del castellano. Las redes sociales fueron fundamentales para estos objetivos, dado que ofrecieron a los activistas un control representativo para articular discursos lingüísticos y para patrullar y evaluar prácticas lingüísticas ante sus seguidores. Esta tesis también examina las implicaciones de estos acontecimientos para la estandarización de la lengua catalana, mediante entrevistas a once técnicos lingüísticos de diferentes instituciones de las islas Baleares y dos activistas favorables a la normalización del catalán. Las entrevistas proporcionaron perspectivas sobre la forma en que los agentes institucionales controlan y practican la variedad estándar. Una vez identificada una distribución vertical de las prácticas de la variedad estándar entre los actores institucionales, el análisis se centra en el uso que hace de las redes sociales una técnica lingüística que trabaja en el ámbito local. En resumen, esta tesis presenta tres argumentos: a) la adopción estratégica de un régimen de estándar lingüístico por los activistas disidentes, b) la existencia de una necesidad de identificación en el mercado lingüístico balear, y c) la influencia de la minorización sobre la estandarización.
This thesis comprises an ethnographic description of the recent development of linguistic dissidence on the Balearic Islands: the establishment of a belief within the archipelago’s socio-political sector claiming that ‘Balearic’, rather than Catalan, should share official status with Spanish as its authentic autochthonous language. Three associations of language activists created in 2013 are responsible for this development. This thesis analyses two years of these three associations’ social media activity, as well as other materials. Findings show that activists engaged in a struggle to legitimize an alternative standard revolving around ideologies of authenticity, while simultaneously ensuring and advancing the level of anonymity towards Spanish. Social media was instrumental for these purposes, as it provided activists representational control to spread discourse about language and to police language practices. This thesis also examines the implications that this development represented for Catalan standardization. I interviewed 11 language planners working at different institutions on the Balearic Islands and two Catalan language advocates. The interviews provided accounts on the ways institutional figures police the standard variety of Catalan. After finding a vertical distribution of standard practices among institutional figures, the analysis focused on a local planner’s social media practices. In all, this thesis advances three arguments regarding activists’ strategic adoption of the standard language regime, the existence of a need to identify in the Balearic linguistic market, and the role of minoritization on standardization.

Full textAbstract:
Internet et en particulier les réseaux sociaux numériques (RSN) sont devenus en quelques années des lieux privilégiés de l’activisme. Pétitions, détournements, « bad buzz », blogs polémiques, etc s’affirment désormais comme des moyens d’expressions récurrents de controverses entre institutions – entreprises, organisations, etc – et contradicteurs. Cependant, si les causes de ces oppositions sont extrêmement variables, les modalités de la conflictualité ne suivraient-elle pas des processus similaires ? Cette thèse, dans sa première partie, évoque l’évolution de l’activisme au prisme des nouvelles technologies et de l’émergence des RSN. Puis, à partir de l’étude de stratégies militaires et, en particulier, des conflits dits « asymétriques », la deuxième partie est consacrée à l’identification de caractéristiques susceptibles de modéliser ces nouvelles approches conflictuelles développées sur les RSN. Enfin, la troisième partie, dans une démarche empirique et descriptive permet d’évaluer la pertinence de ce modèle à partir d’un matériel de recherche composé à la fois d’entretiens avec des professionnels et de l’analyse de données issues de trois cas de crises sur internet ayant opposé activistes et entreprises. Ce travail de recherche permet de constater que cette doctrine asymétrique fournit un cadre de décryptage original des mouvements activistes sur internet éclairant notamment plus distinctement la dynamique des enjeux majeurs de la conflictualité, à savoir la quête permanente d’une légitimité de l’action vis-à-vis des parties prenantesWithin a few years, internet, and particularly social media, has turned to be a center place for activism. Petitions, brandjacking, bad buzz, controversial blogs, etc have become common means of opposition between institutions – mostly companies and business organizations – and their opponents. However, if the causes of controversies are extremely diverse, would it be possible to identify common process patterns followed by activists among recent controversies developed on internet? This thesis, in its first part, studies the evolution of activism behaviors and their evolution in linked with the rising of internet and social networks. Then, on a second part, from the identification of specific characteristics of the asymmetric warfare doctrine, we propose a new model to study these controversies and activist behaviors developed on internet. Lastly, the third part of this thesis is dedicated to the the assessment of the validity of this model through an empirical and descriptive approach made up from interviews with professional and analysis of three major internet crisis opposing companies and activists.Through this research, it appears that this “asymmetric communication” model proved to be, in these cases, a comprehensive framework. It particularly makes sense of the key stakes of the controversy: the permanent quest for demonstrating its legitimacy towards key stake holders

Full textAbstract:
Du soulèvement survenu en Birmanie en 2007 aux révoltes qui ont traversé les pays de la Méditerranée en 2011, les usages de la vidéo partagée sur internet n’ont cessé de se développer au cœur des manifestations et des émeutes. À partir d’observations menées sur internet et d’une enquête de terrain en Tunisie, la thèse s’attache à décrire l’évolution des usages de l’image animée sur le temps long du processus révolutionnaire tunisien entre 2008 et 2014, et à questionner la place et le rôle de ces pratiques dans un monde social en ébullition. L’analyse des contenus mais aussi des tensions socio-politiques qui ont présidé et succédé au moment insurrectionnel, suggère que la prise d’images n’est pas seulement une pratique utilitaire et stratégique destinée à sensibiliser ou à produire une information alternative, mais qu’elle sert des objectifs complexes traversés par les enjeux de lutte qui ont animé les différentes périodes. Des premiers usages en période autoritaire aux productions en plan-séquence dans le temps de l’urgence insurrectionnelle, des montages et mises en scènes accompagnant les mobilisations pour la reconnaissance des acteurs de la révolte à ceux réaffirmant les revendications des populations marginalisées, la vidéo partagée s’est affirmée comme le langage vernaculaire de la contestationFrom the Burma uprising in 2007 to the revolutions of the Arab world in 2011, the uses of digital video have continued to grow, from the heart of demonstrations and riots to the internet. Based on observations conducted on the internet and on a field survey in Tunisia, the thesis describe the evolution of moving image uses in the Tunisian revolutionary process between 2008 and 2014, and interrogates the place and role of these practices in a social world in turmoil. Content analysis combined with analysis of the socio-political tensions that led and succeeded the uprising, suggests that taking pictures is not only a strategic utility practice to raise awareness or to produce alternative information, but that it serves complex objectives marked by the struggle issues of the different periods. From the first uses in authoritarian period to the uses during riots weeks, from edited clips for recognition of revolutionary actors to productions for the recognition of marginalized populations, shared videos revealed as the vernacular language of protest

Full textAbstract:
This book focuses on the referendums against water privatization in Italy and explores how activists took to social media, ultimately convincing twenty-seven million citizens to vote. Investigating the relationship between social movements and internet-related activism during complex campaigns, this book examines how a technological evolution — the increased relevance of social media platforms — affected in very different ways organizations with divergent characteristics, promoting at the same time decentralized communication practices, and new ways of coordinating dispersed communities of people. Matteo Cernison combines and adapts a wide set of methods, from social network analysis to digital ethnography, in order to explore in detail how digital activism and face-to-face initiatives interact and overlap. He argues that the geographical scale of actions, the role played by external media professionals, and the activists’ perceptions of digital technologies are key elements that contribute in a significant way to shape the very different communication practices often described as online activism.

AbstractThe present study investigates the landscapes of feminist and civil activist movements in Kazakhstan and how these movements further developed and interacted after 2019. Given Kazakhstan’s authoritarian system of governance, social media plays a crucial role in the development of activist movements as it allows for faster and effective community mobilisation. The paper employs “the logic of connective action” concept as a theoretical basis to explore how social media has impacted the activist movement growth. The study is divided into two analytical parts: inductive and deductive. Inductive analysis is based on qualitative interviews and dedicated to exploring the goals, strategies, and challenges of feminist and activist movements, identifying the main actors, and pinpointing the movements’ interactions. The inductive analysis concludes with the proposition of the hypothesis that local cyberfeminist activism increases women’s involvement in activities dedicated to causes other than feminist one. The deductive analysis attempts to test this hypothesis via a survey developed for the present study. The paper concludes with a discussion section that summarises how feminist activism strengthens other activist movements and how the present case study can be expanded to other Central Asian states.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractThis article focuses on student activism as an important site for the formulation and exploration of ethical dilemmas intrinsic to activist engagement across difference. In recent years, there has been a marked upsurge in student mobilization against inequality and social injustice within universities and in wider society. By drawing on ethnographic fieldwork material generated with left-wing student activists in New Zealand in 2012 and 2015, the article investigates how two different student activist networks, in their struggles for equality and justice, navigate ethical dilemmas around inclusion and exclusion and balance universal moral claims against a sensitivity to situated ethical complexities and locally embedded experiences and values. While sharing the goal of fighting inequality, the two networks differ in their emphasis on the creation of ‘dissensus’ and ‘safe spaces’ in their network, their university and in wider society. The article draws upon two interconnected strands of theories, namely, debates about deliberative democracy, including questions of universal accessibility and inclusion/exclusion, and theories around ethics as a question of living up to universal moral imperatives (deontology) or as embedded in everyday negotiations and cultivations of virtues (virtue ethics). Inspired by Mansbridge, it proposes that central to radical student activism as an ethical practice is the ability to act as a (subaltern) counter public that not only ‘nags’ or haunts dominant moralities from the margins but also allows for the cultivation of spaces and identities within the activist networks that can ‘nag’ or haunt the networks’ own moral frames and virtues and goad them into action and new democratic experiments.

AbstractThis chapter lays out the theoretical foundation of the book. It conceptualizes resistance as a space in-between small-scale mundane practices with a low level of collective organizing and large-scale protest activities which often exemplify resistance in social movement studies. In line with feminist and queer conceptualization of resistance, the authors suggest to examine multi-scalarity of resistant practices. The chapter attends to three scales of feminist and LGBTI+ activism in Russia, Turkey, and Scandinavia. The first scale analyzes activism in relation to the civil society-state-market triad. The second scale problematizes the notion of solidarity in relations between feminist and LGBTI+ activists from different geopolitical regions and countries as well as between small- and large-scale activist organizations and groups. Finally, the third scale focuses on individual resistant practices and the role of individual bodies in emergence of collective political struggles.

Hicks, Jacqueline. Donor Support for ‘Informal Social Movements’. Institute of Development Studies, April 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.19088/k4d.2022.085.
Full textAbstract:
“Social movements” are by definition informal or semi-formal, as opposed to the formal structure of a stable association, such as a club, a corporation, or a political party. They are relatively long lasting over a period of weeks, months, or even years rather than flaring up for a few hours or a few days and then disappearing (Smelser et al., 2020). There is a substantial and growing body of work dedicated to social movements, encompassing a wide range of views about how to define them (Smelser et al., 2020). This is complicated by the use of other terms which shade into the idea of “social movements”, such as grass-roots mobilisation/ movements, non-traditional civil society organisations, voluntary organisations, civic space, new civic activism, active citizenship, to name a few. There is also an implied informality to the term “social movements”, so that the research for this rapid review used both “social movement” and “informal social movement”. Thus this rapid review seeks to find out what approaches do donors use to support “informal social movements” in their programming, and what evidence do they base their strategies on. The evidence found during the course of this rapid review was drawn from both the academic literature, and think-tank and donor reports. The academic literature found was extremely large and predominantly drawn from single case studies around the world, with few comparative studies. The literature on donor approaches found from both donors and think tanks was not consistently referenced to research evidence but tended to be based on interviews with experienced staff and recipients.

Full textAbstract:
As part of our “What Is Just Tech?” series, we invited several social researchers—scholars, practitioners, artists, and activists—to respond to a simple yet fundamental question: “What is just technology?” This interview was conducted by Just Tech program officer Catalina Vallejo, who spoke with Desmond Upton Patton, Professor of Social Work at Columbia University and Just Tech Advisory Board member. Patton (he/him) studies how gang-involved youth conceptualize threats on social media and the extent to which social media may shape or facilitate youth and gang violence. He is the founding director of SAFElab, which centers young people’s perspectives in computational and social work research on violence, trains future social work scholars, and actively engages in violence prevention and intervention. In their conversation, Vallejo and Patton spoke about social media as an amplifier of violence, the importance of lived experience informing computational research, and misunderstandings about Black grief.

Full textAbstract:
Dominant narratives promoting economic growth at the expense of state institutions and basic social services have long underpinned a neoliberal model of spiralling debt and austerity in the MENA region. This exacerbates political capture and inequality and takes shape in an environment of media concentration and shrinking civic space. It is important for change movements to understand dominant narratives in order to challenge and shift them. With the right tools, civil society organizations, activists, influencers and alternative media can start changing the myths and beliefs which frame the socio-economic debate and predetermine which policy options are accepted as possible and legitimate, and which are not.

Khan, Ayesha. Supporting Women’s Empowerment in Pakistan: Lessons for Donors. Institute of Development Studies (IDS), January 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.19088/ids.2021.001.
Full textAbstract:
In a context where democratic culture and civil society space are under threat, rights-based organisations face increased restrictions on their activities, and donors are finding it harder to engage with them. However, findings show that donor support is crucial for successful women’s empowerment initiatives. Our research on women’s activism in Pakistan suggests donors should strategically support women’s social and political action for empowerment and accountability by continuing to support advocacy organisations, which develop women’s skills to engage with participatory political processes.
