  • Pop-up political advocacy communities on reddit.com: SandersForPresident and The Donald.Richard A. Mills - 2018 - AI and Society 33 (1):39-54.
    This paper explores two reddit communities that supported Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump, respectively, in the run up to the 2016 US Presidential election campaign. Much of the paper is dedicated to explaining how reddit functions, describing the behaviour of the subreddit communities in question and then asking whether these demonstrated collective intelligence. Subreddit communities submit and vote on content, through their votes they make collective decisions about which content will be broadcast to their community. Large subreddit communities that formed (...)

  • Participation and deliberative discourse on social media – Wikipedia talk pages as transnational public spheres?Susanne Kopf - 2022 - Critical Discourse Studies 19 (2):196-211.
    ABSTRACT This paper focuses on the potential societal function of Wikipedia beyond serving as an encyclopedia. That is, it assesses both theoretically and empirically whether talk pages – Wikipedia discussion sites that accompany the encyclopedic entries and provide spaces for debates among Wikipedia editors – may function as transnational public spheres. Despite the increasing number of studies on citizen engagement and participation in the age of social media, Wikipedia as an example of the participatory internet has received little research attention (...)

  • Collective Identity as Shared Ethical Self-Understanding: The Case of the Emerging European Identity.Cathleen Kantner - 2006 - European Journal of Social Theory 9 (4):501-523.
    Against the common view that a European identity is a functional precondition for legitimate EU governance, this article argues that conceptual weaknesses of the term ‘collective identity’ have led to a confusion of several analytic dimensions of ‘identity’ and to an overestimation of strong forms of collective identity. Insights provided by analytic philosophy will be introduced in order to redefine and differentiate ‘collective identity’. The ways in which people refer to themselves as members of we-groups will be outlined and illustrated (...)

  • Contemporary Political Theories of the European City: Questioning Institutions.Monika De Frantz - 2008 - European Journal of Social Theory 11 (4):465-485.
    While political economic perspectives of urban globalization tend to generalize the economic pressures upon socio-political transformations of cities, recent European research has stressed the institutional context of urban collective action. However, the structural bias of the European city model merely complements the criticized economization by a culturalist essentialization of urbanity, and thus fails to conceptualize political agency. In order to elaborate the theoretical foundations of a political counterhypothesis to urban globalization, this article clarifies the different historical and normative conceptions of (...)

  • Austerity and fragmentation: Dynamics of Europeanization of media discourses in Greece and Italy.Stavroula Chrona & Cristiano Bee - 2020 - Communications 45 (s1):864-892.
    This article investigates media representations of the European financial crisis in Greece and Italy. We study the Euro crisis as an ‘emergency situation’ with domino effects, where media played a central role in shaping communication practices at the national level as well as between the two countries. Drawing upon vertical and horizontal dynamics of Europeanization, we map the convergences and divergences in media discourses that surround the period 2011–2015. In doing so, we elaborate a qualitative analysis of newspaper articles focusing, (...)
