(Mis)Understanding Political Participation - Digital Practices, New Forms of Participation and the Renewal of Democracy... (Mis)Understanding Political Participation - Digital Practices, New Forms of Participation and the Renewal of Democracy (Paperback)

The practices of participation and engagement are characterised by complexities and contradictions. All celebratory examples of uses of social media, e.g. in the Arab spring, the Occupy movement or in recent LGBTQ protests, are deeply rooted in human practices. Because of this connection, every case of mediated participation should be perceived as highly contextual and cannot be attributed to one (social) specific media logic, necessitating detailed empirical studies to investigate the different contexts of political and civic engagement. In this volume, the theoretical chapters discuss analytical frameworks that can enrich our understanding of current contexts and practices of mediated participation. The empirical studies explore the implications of the new digital conditions for the ways in which digitally mediated social interactions, practices and environments shape everyday participation, engagement or protest and their subjective as well societal meaning.

Der Ruf nach Transparenz ist mit Beginn des 21. Jahrhunderts - nicht zuletzt aufgrund von Krisen, Terrorismus, Korruption - lauter geworden. Transparenz erscheint als Heilmittell mit der Komplexitat unserer unubersichtlichen und undurchsichtigen Welt umzugehen. Aber ist die Forderung nicht zu durchsichtig? Ist umgekehrt Intransparenz immer schon ein Hinweis auf ein Problem oder auf eine besondere Ressource?
Ist in einer medialisierten Gesellschaft auch der personliche Alltag nicht zunehmend eine Ausverhandlung zwischen Transparenz und privatem Ruckzug - bei sozialen Medien," glasernen Kunden bzw. Mitarbeitern"? Oszilliert Transparenz nicht immer zwischen Uberwachung und Sicherheit - vom Nacktscanner bis zur Anti-Korruption?
Der sechste Jahresband der Zeppelin Universitat befasst sich mit diesen und vielen anderen Fragen rund um Transparenz und nimmt eine differenzierte Verortung von Transparenz in unterschiedlichen Lebensbereichen von Wirtschaft, Kultur und Politik vor. Die Beitrage des Bandes spannen einen Bogen von der Transparenz in privaten wie offentlichen Organisationen uber die Transparenz politischer Rhetorik bis hin zur Transparenz im alltaglichen Konsum."
