The document analyzes how social responsibility is used as an empty signifier in media discourses. It applies Laclau's theory of empty signifiers to analyze how social responsibility comes to represent various unrelated demands. A content analysis of 104 newspaper articles finds that social responsibility is described in managerial and moral terms and used to represent both individualism and communitarian values. The analysis concludes that social responsibility functions as an empty signifier that offers a common solution while resurrecting some pre-modern values.

3 b media discourses
Discourse refers to systems of language use and socially constructed knowledge. Discourse theory examines how language shapes social relations and power structures. Michel Foucault argued that discourses create "regimes of truth" that shape perceptions. Norman Fairclough studied the relationship between social structures, practices, and discourse. Analyzing discourses can highlight how words and texts influence identity and participation in power. However, some criticize that discourse theory is too focused on words and subjective interpretations.
"A Person Is a Person Through Other Persons" - SSPC Cultural Identity Workshop
"A Person Is a Person Through Other Persons" - SSPC Cultural Identity WorkshopUniversité de Montréal
Abstract
Background.
Globalization and migration trigger reflections on Cultural Identity (CI) that are salient for cultural psychiatry. Clinicians’ CIs–the sum of family attachments and social belonging–are crucial aspects of helping relationships that must be acknowledged and well-integrated when working with families across cultures.
Aims.
This workshop examines clinicians’ CI across time: (1) origins of CI, grounded in family and social relationships; (2) current commitments and relationships that confer lives and careers with meaning; and (3) CI projected into the future–what is stable and what is subject to change. Clinicians must understand changes over time of their CIs to accompany complex CIs of migrants in flux. Such exercises aim to help clinicians to identify their own CIs which may differ significantly across cultures. Key transdisciplinary ideas will be introduced to offer reflective weight and practical pathways for exploring CI: (1) the notion of “relational self” that situates the self through social relationships; (2) “making meaning” and “narrative resources”; and (3) “commitments” and “final vocabularies” versus “liquid modernity.”
Methods.
Workshop participants will be provided with short readings in advance covering the key ideas. After introducing the participants, the workshop begins with a theoretical overview, followed by experiential activities, centered on two CI Interviews (CI-Ints) conducted by workshop leaders with participants, each followed by a “reflecting team” dialogue with workshop participants. A group dialogue about CI and the overall experience of the CI-Ints will be followed by a wrap-up by the workshop leaders.
Potential Outcomes.
Through this workshop, participants will experience ways to examine the complexity and nuances of their CIs and integrate them into their own cultural-clinical encounters with families.
Discussion.
Implications for the CI of health care workers as a tool for self-knowledge and working with families across cultural differences, including socio-cultural variables and professional and social commitments.
DOI: 10.13140/RG.2.2.28632.11526The Encoding
This document provides an overview of Stuart Hall's encoding/decoding model of communication. It discusses the theoretical origins in critical theory and cultural studies. Hall proposed that communication involves three stages - encoding of messages by media producers based on dominant ideologies, the transmission of encoded messages, and decoding of messages by audiences based on their own social positions and ideologies, which may differ from the encoder's intent. The model rejected the transmission view of communication and emphasized that meanings are constructed at both the encoding and decoding stages.
Media language semiotics lesson 2 & 3
The document discusses semiotics and media language. It explains that language is constructed by people to produce meanings within their culture. Signs have three parts - the signifier, which is the physical form; the signified, which is the concept or idea; and the referent, which is the real thing. Films use signs and signifiers to communicate meanings and elicit emotional responses from audiences. Different elements in films like music, lighting, and mise-en-scene can take on intended or personal connotations. Effective analysis of media requires understanding how signs and signifiers are used to construct meanings.

This document discusses research methodology in the field of communication. It covers various topics such as identifying communication issues, types of communication, theoretical perspectives, methods for studying communicators, messages, media, audiences and processes. Examples of potential research areas involving religion, theology and society are provided. The document emphasizes that communication borrows from other disciplines and there is a growing dialogue between theology and communication. Research should systematically analyze problems and find new strategies to enhance the communication process.

1. Communication is an important field of research in theological education, as every discipline involves communication. Research should systematically analyze communication issues and find new strategies.
2. Communication is a social process that is interdependent with and influenced by other social processes. Some potential research areas in communication include religion, society, culture, and media.
3. Identifying communication problems and converting them into research questions is the task of the researcher. Examples of issues include communication gaps and misrepresentation of groups.
4. There is a growing dialogue between theology and communication, with communication seen as analogous to linguistic, aesthetic, cultural, dialog

IntroGardner
This document is an introduction to a journal issue focusing on cultural studies of psychiatry. It provides a summary of cultural studies and its goal of critiquing how political and cultural forces operate through representations to naturalize social relations. It explains how cultural studies analyzes the "maps of social reality" embedded in cultural productions to expand possibilities for interpretation. The introduction then defines the scope of "cultural studies of psychiatry" and previews several articles in the issue that apply cultural analysis to phenomena commonly medicalized, such as premenstrual disorder and the rise of Ritalin prescriptions.
Ncercc Socialpedagogybook Chap06
1) The document discusses the theoretical approaches to social pedagogy in Denmark from the 1970s-1980s. Two main schools of thought emerged: a Marxist approach focused on group dynamics, and a North American pragmatic approach focused on everyday experiences.
2) In the late 1980s-1990s, approaches drew from German critical theory and focused more on communication and emotional exchange. However, empirical research was still lacking.
3) The document argues for a third theoretical approach drawing from French philosophers like Bourdieu that examines social pedagogy as a social occurrence rather than just an experience. It emphasizes analyzing power relations and how dominated groups accept their position in society.

prof. Thomas Bauer - prezentacija PRilika 2012
Thomas Bauer from the University of Vienna discussed concepts related to understanding social change in media societies. He argued that society, communication, social change, and the future are concepts of observation used to analyze and understand how society thinks about itself. Bauer also noted that social change represents a descriptive metaphor for experiencing alterations in the social environment over time through conceptual frameworks. Understanding the interconnectivity of these concepts provides a terminological model for comprehending the auto-constitutive relationship between society, culture, communication, and organization.

Criticl discourse analysis (CDA)
This document discusses critical discourse analysis (CDA) and the relationship between discourse and knowledge. It contains several key points:
1) CDA aims to explicitly relate discourse and knowledge, but both are complex phenomena studied across many disciplines.
2) The relationships between discourse and knowledge have philosophical, linguistic, psychological, sociological, and anthropological dimensions.
3) Several aspects of the discourse-knowledge interface are discussed, including epistemological foundations, cognitive theory, linguistic forms, knowledge management, and the social/cultural dimensions of language.
4) A multidisciplinary approach is needed to fully describe the interface between discourse and knowledge.
UCSP PPT 1.pdf
This document provides an overview of the disciplines of anthropology, sociology, and political science. It defines each discipline, their main goals and concerns. Anthropology is defined as the scientific study of human cultures and societies. Its main goals are to describe, analyze, and explain different cultures. Sociology is defined as the scientific study of human society and social interactions, focusing on groups rather than individuals. Political science is defined as the academic study of politics, addressing empirical and normative questions about politics. It also discusses their intersections and why these three disciplines are important to study together to gain a holistic understanding of societal issues.
Lecture 13.1 Social philosophy.ppt
Social philosophy examines society and human behavior within it. It considers individuals as part of communities like family, country, or ethnicity. There are two types of social philosophy: value-based and reflective. Value-based philosophy addresses questions about the meaning of life in society and the ideal form of society. Reflective philosophy analyzes society and history objectively. Social philosophy studies topics like social development, social progress, and the relationship between conscious and unconscious forces that drive social change.

Masters thesis 2:2
This document discusses the divide between "hands-on" and "logo-centric" approaches to visual sociology. It argues that hands-on practitioners tend to focus narrowly on documentary photography while logo-centric practitioners take a broader theoretical approach conceptualizing vision and representation as sites of culture and knowledge production. The document traces the theoretical roots of these approaches in continental European sociology, North American sociology, and British cultural studies. It aims to contextualize visual inquiry and help unify disparate yet related practices in the field.

It argues that hands-on practitioners tend to focus narrowly on documentary photography while logo-centric practitioners take a broader theoretical approach informed by traditions from continental European sociology and British cultural studies. The document traces the theoretical influences and origins of these different approaches, noting that hands-on visual sociology developed in North America while logo-centric traditions have roots in Europe. It suggests these divisions are beginning to break down as visual sociology becomes more popular and interdisciplinary.

It discusses three lenses - assets based policy, ethical underpinnings, and socio-cultural depth hermeneutic. It then provides examples of "scenic compositions" using different styles like a novel, internet chat, fantasy fiction, and rap poem to immerse the reader in different perspectives. The presentation emphasizes the situated and processual nature of research and the need for researcher reflexivity.
Sandra Harding Discussion Leading
Harding argues that standpoint epistemologies offer an alternative to addressing the "crisis" in internalist epistemology. She asserts that starting projects from issues in marginalized groups' lives, rather than dominant frameworks, can provide important resources. A standpoint is an objective position in social relations determined by empirical observation and reflection. Harding outlines a "logic of discovery" using standpoint theory to maximize objectivity in research and produce knowledge to benefit oppressed groups.

This document provides an overview of critical discourse analysis (CDA) and its approaches. It discusses the key concepts and theorists in the development of CDA, including Norman Fairclough and Teun Van Dijk. The document is divided into two sections. The first section defines CDA and outlines its five common features and differences between approaches. It then describes Fairclough's approach focusing on discourse as social practice and ideology/power, as well as Van Dijk's socio-cognitive model. The second section will apply one of the CDA approaches to analyze Charlotte Bronte's novel Jane Eyre.

This document provides an overview of narrative analysis as an approach to qualitative research. It discusses several key concepts in narrative analysis, including how narratives represent human experience, the social and cultural contexts that shape narratives, and different structural elements of narratives. The document also outlines different theoretical perspectives on narratives, such as how they help interpret the world and make meaning from experiences. Finally, it discusses the role of narratives in educational research and teacher learning.
Keynote Andrew Crane
This document discusses opportunities for research on corporate social responsibility (CSR) communication. It identifies four areas or "4i's" of CSR communication research: (1) internal CSR integration, (2) external CSR interpretation, (3) CSR identity, and (4) CSR image. For each area, it outlines challenges and opportunities for exploring how communication shapes and is shaped by CSR programs and concepts. The document argues that CSR communication research could provide insights into how communication facilitates organizational sensemaking, stakeholder engagement, and the discursive construction of CSR.
Keynote Mette Morsing
The document discusses the increasing pressures and expectations for corporations to communicate their CSR policies, actions, and impacts. It notes that while much research has analyzed CSR communication through various lenses like advertising, reports, and media coverage, less research has explored how communication helps institutionalize new behaviors within organizations or shape their relations with stakeholders. The document argues that research on CSR communication often assumes words and actions must be consistent, but some gap may be productive for flexibility. It maps various themes and approaches within the interdisciplinary field of CSR communication research.

Session 1, Pomering, Johnson & Noble
This document summarizes a study that investigated how two message variables - social topic information and CSR commitment information - influence the effectiveness of CSR advertising. The study found that providing more specific CSR commitment information in ads (rather than just general policy information) significantly reduced consumer skepticism of the ads. However, including social topic information did not significantly interact with commitment information to further reduce skepticism as was hypothesized. The results suggest that consumer skepticism of CSR ads can be inhibited by including more detailed messaging about a company's CSR initiatives and impacts.
Session 1, Farache
The document summarizes a research study that analyzed six corporate social responsibility (CSR) advertisement campaigns from the UK and Brazil to determine the level of substantial information provided and association with third parties. The main findings were that most advertisements provided low amounts of substantial information about investments and impacts. Only two campaigns provided high levels of detail. Half of the companies disclosed partnerships with other organizations. The conclusions were that the advertisements did little to address skepticism about CSR claims and transparency could be improved to increase credibility.
Session 1, Van der Rijt, Hoeken & Kardol
This document discusses the strategic nature of corporate social responsibility and the role of communication. It describes how philanthropy can improve a company's reputation and attractiveness while also benefiting society. However, the level of communication and control around philanthropic activities indicates whether the motivation is truly altruistic or egocentric. High levels of communication and message control, like sponsoring, suggest a more strategic motivation whereas low levels, like anonymous donations, are less strategic in nature.
Session 2, Etter & Morsing
The document discusses barriers to dialogue and CSR communication in social media. It analyzes interviews with managers at a pharmaceutical company about launching a CSR Twitter account. Key barriers identified include unfamiliarity with social media, managerial scepticism of outcomes on new platforms, restrictive internal guidelines, and limited resources. These barriers negatively impact principles of building online relationships like keeping communication useful, frequent, conversational, and committed. The conclusion emphasizes looking at organizational aspects and developing capabilities for social media communication.

Vattenfall launched a social media campaign to increase dialogue on climate change but it did not achieve the expected results. Stakeholders criticized the campaign as "greenwashing" and responses became repetitive arguments without understanding differing positions. While social media aims to advance stakeholder dialogue, it also risks negative effects as criticism can escalate, challenging assumptions that it facilitates open communication.
Session 2, Lee & Holladay
This study examined how Fortune 100 companies use social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter and YouTube to promote their corporate philanthropy efforts. The researchers analyzed links from company homepages and reported philanthropic activities on each platform. They found most companies provided access to at least one social media platform, with Twitter used most often. The most frequently reported philanthropic activities were cash donations, product donations and donations of services. The study provides a foundation for further research on using social media for corporate social responsibility communication and managing promotional backlash.
Session 2, Tench & Jones
This document discusses how businesses must manage their corporate social responsibility (CSR) messages in the unregulated environment of social media. It argues that value is created through co-creating messages with stakeholders. While social media allows for greater participation and collaboration, it also poses challenges as audiences can now generate and spread content. The document examines survey findings on how communication professionals are adopting tools and strategies to navigate social media's "Wild West".
Session 3, de Vries
1) An experiment conducted by researchers at Leiden University examined how communicated motives for corporate social responsibility investments affected perceptions of greenwashing for an energy company.
2) When the company communicated an environmental/CSR motive for investing in carbon capture technology, it led to higher perceptions of strategic behavior and greenwashing than just providing background information.
3) However, communicating an economic motive for the investment decreased perceptions of greenwashing and strategic behavior compared to a CSR motive. This was because a CSR motive led to suspicions of purely strategic rather than sincere intentions.
Session 3, Steenhuis & Elving
This study examined the role of skepticism towards food labels and its influence on buying intention. It hypothesized that greater knowledge and appreciation of a label would decrease skepticism, while increased skepticism would negatively influence buying intention. An online survey of 140 Dutch respondents about the "I make conscious choices" label found that most were familiar with it but few knew its true industry origin. Results confirmed that greater appreciation decreased skepticism and skepticism influenced buying intention. When respondents learned the label's industry origin, skepticism and negative evaluations increased. The study concludes the label may be misleading and organizations should be cautious adopting such labels for marketing purposes.
Session 3, Bowers
The document discusses three types of corporate social responsibility (CSR) interface designs found on company websites. Type 1 resembles printed pages with text-heavy content. Type 2 adds a table of contents for navigation but still emphasizes content over structure. Type 3 incorporates cinematic techniques to tell a company's CSR story through visualization rather than text. The researcher argues these designs do not effectively convey a clear CSR identity and calls for alternative interfaces that merge navigation and content through visual storytelling.
Session 3, de Bruijn & Elving
1. The document reports on research into whether brand associations can transfer through an endorsement strategy.
2. It used an implicit association test to measure unconscious attitudes towards L'Oreal, which has a questionable reputation for animal testing, and The Body Shop, which has a more sustainable image.
3. The results showed brand associations did transfer, with stronger endorsements of L'Oreal leading to more positive unconscious associations, showing brand images can influence each other.
Session 4, Jarolimek
Dr. Stefan Jarolimek presented a framework for measuring CSR communication through a multi-case study approach. The study would analyze cultural factors like national culture, industry culture, and organizational culture that influence CSR communication. It would examine the self-image organizations project through their own CSR communications and websites. It would also analyze the public image of organizations as portrayed in media coverage. Comparing self-image and public image data across different countries, industries and organizations could provide insights into CSR communication and its relevance for communication research.
Session 4, Parani
The document discusses community development strategies of PT Freeport Indonesia and PT Total Exploration and Production Indonesie. It finds that while both companies implemented comprehensive programs, PT Total saw more success by thoroughly consulting communities, understanding their needs, and gaining stakeholder participation and media support, while PT Freeport failed to properly analyze the social environment. The key to effective strategies is involving stakeholders, addressing community needs, and building mutual benefit between corporations and communities.
Session 5, Van Loo
Companies must practice corporate social responsibility (CSR) in their own operations and educate stakeholders about CSR. CSR requires a double learning process, with companies implementing CSR policies internally and consumers learning how to engage with CSR efforts. Examples include educating consumers about the environmental impacts of using products and engaging the public in a campaign promoting Dutch greenhouse farmers while teaching about their CSR practices. Effective CSR communication keeps messages simple while being transparent, building legitimacy, and involving stakeholders.
Session 5, Ellerup Nielsen & Thomsen
This document provides a summary of a literature review on CSR communication research from a management and marketing perspective. It examines 49 articles focusing on conceptualizing CSR communication and how it can add value for stakeholders. It finds that the field is emerging but marketing approaches dominate, and research often takes a functionalist perspective. There is increased research on strategic and operational CSR communication and country/industry impacts. However, companies still tend not to take a proactive, stakeholder-oriented approach to CSR communication. Stronger theoretical anchoring is also needed.
Session 5, Coombs & Holladay
This document summarizes a presentation given at an international CSR communication conference in Amsterdam. The presentation discusses the concept of a "pseudo-panopticon" where companies claim their CSR activities are transparent due to fear of discovery online, but this actually creates a false sense of security. While companies use CSR to boost reputations, stakeholders are unlikely to question claims and perceive the internet and watchdogs as effective monitors, even though corporate control of disclosure persists. Future research questions are posed about stakeholder beliefs in verification and transparency of CSR information.
Session 5, Faber-Wiener
The document discusses responsible communication (RC), a new approach to communicating social and ethical issues. RC is based on inclusion, critical self-assessment, ethics, and discourse. It differs from traditional CSR communication by integrating these principles into all levels of management decision-making, processes, and external communication. Implementing RC requires changes to organizational structure and decision-making processes. Potential impacts include increased credibility, legitimacy, cost savings, and stronger management and societal roles for communicators.
Session 5, Rademacher
The document discusses the relationship between corporate social responsibility (CSR), leadership styles, communication strategies, and management trends. It presents an agenda covering the introduction and problem definition, institutionalization of CSR, management styles related to CSR initiatives, the role of management trainers in management trends, and the project framework and methodology. Key findings include that explicit and implicit CSR can co-exist in organizations, with transformational leadership helping to manage conflicts and drive innovation. Management trainers see CSR as mainly a management responsibility but take a conservative, implicit approach, suggesting they view transformational leadership as important.

How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?
