Communication Power

"We live in the midst of a revolution in communication technologies that affects the ways people feel, think, and behave. The media have become the space where power strategies are played out. In the current technological context mass communication goes beyond traditional media and includes the Internet and mobile communication." "In this book, Manuel Castells analyses the transformation of the global media industry by this revolution in communication technologies. He argues that a new communication system, mass self-communication, has emerged, and power relationships have been profoundly modified by the emergence of this new communication environment. Created in the commons of the Internet this communication can be locally based, but globally connected. It is built through messaging, social networking sites, and blogging, and is now being used by the millions around the world who have access to the Internet."--Jacket.

  • "Un'analisi puntuale sulla natura del potere nella globalizzazione, dove i media sono diventati il luogo privilegiato della decisione politica. Ma anche ipotesi di resistenza alla "fabbrica del consenso""
  • ""El presente libro constituye una exploración apasionante y rigurosa de las vías de cambio social abiertas por una nueva relación entre la comunicación y poder. Los medios de comunicación se han convertido en el ámbito en el que se despliegan las estrategias de poder, pero, en el actual contexto tecnológico, la comunicación de masas va más allá de los medios tradicionales: gracias a Internet y a los dispositivos móviles ha surgido un nuevo entorno comunicativo, la autocomunicación de masas, que ha modifi cado profundamente las relaciones de poder. Manuel Castells analiza las transformaciones que se han producido en la industria global de los medios de comunicación y, basándose en una diversidad de enfoques sociales y psicológicos, ofrece una investigación original de procesos políticos y movimientos sociales, los acontecimientos que siguieron al atentado del 11 de marzo en Madrid, la desinformación del público estadounidense sobre la guerra de Irak, el movimiento ecologista global contra el cambio climático, elcontrol de la información en Rusia y China y el papel de Internet en las campañas electorales, como la de Obama, que ilustran la nueva relación entre comunicación y poder del siglo XXI. " --Contratapa."@es
  • "Drawing on a wide range of social and psychological theories, Castells presents original research on political processes and social movements. He applies this analysis to numerous recent events - the misinformation of the American public on the Iraq War, the global environmental movement to preventclimate change, the control of information in China and Russia, Barak Obama's internet-based presidential campaigns, and (in this new edition) responses to recent political and economic crises such as the Arab Spring and the Occupy movement. On the basis of these case studies he proposes a newtheory of power in the information age based on the management of communication networks."@en
