Das Digital Transformer's Dilemma

Die CVP feierte im Oktober 2012 ihr 100-j?hriges Bestehen. Rechtzeitig zu diesem Jubil?um legt der Historiker Urs Altermatt,bekannter Kenner der Schweizer Parteiengeschichte, einen Essayband zur Geschichte der christ-demokratischen Parteienlandschaft vor. In den letzten Jahrzehnten r?ckte die CVP erfolgreich von rechts ins Zentrum. Die seit 1970 angestrebte Schaffung einer ?berkonfessionellen Partei blieb allerdings unerreicht. Dagegen gelang es der SVP, die Konservativen ?berkonfessionell zu sammeln. Darin liegt das strukturell Neue des heutigen Parteiensystems. In seinem historisch-politischen Buch beschreibt Urs Altermatt Personen und Etappen der christlich-demokratischen Parteigeschichte von 1848 bis heute. Zudem bietet er eine spannende Radiografie der CVP-Bundesr?te. Ausf?hrlich befasst er sich mit den grundlegenden Wandlungen der Parteienlandschaft seit den 1990er-Jahren, die eine Erosion der CVP zur Folge hatten. Der Zeithistoriker versucht am Schluss eine Antwort auf die dr?ngende Frage zu geben: Alleingang oder Fusion?

A fascinating exploration of modern podcasting as a tool for decolonization In The Podcaster's Dilemma: Decolonizing Podcasters in the Era of Surveillance Capitalism , Drs. Nolan Higdon and Nicholas Baham III connect contemporary podcasting to the broader history of the use of radio technology in the service of anti-colonial struggle and revolution. By organizing the book’s analysis of decolonization through podcasting via three distinct activities—interrogation and critique, counter-narrative, and call to action—the authors create a lens through which they analyze and evaluate the decolonizing potential of new podcasts. The book also critiques the threat to the decolonizing efforts of some modern podcasts by the growing phenomena of surveillance capitalism and the emerging podcast oligopoly. The Podcaster's Dilemma reveals both potential and challenges in the podcasting space as podcasters struggle to put forward insightful new narratives funded by anti-capitalist models. This important book also includes: A thorough introduction to the podcasters profiled in the book and an examination of how they’re using podcasts to decolonize themselves from colonial mentalities Practical discussions of how the profiled podcasters interrogate and critique the veracity of neoliberal, racist, imperialist, patriarchal, heterosexist, classist, and ableist white-centered ideologies Comprehensive explorations of the counter-narrative production phase of a decolonizing podcaster’s process In-depth treatments of the community activism created by decolonizing podcasts The Podcaster's Dilemma: Decolonizing Podcasters in the Era of Surveillance Capitalism is an indispensable new resource for critical media, communications, ethnic studies, and political science scholars, as well as undergraduate and graduate students. It is also perfect for anyone interested in the broad expansion of intersectional voices in dialogue about everything from political organizing to plant-based diets.
