Free Download Media Industries in Crisis: What COVID Unmasked
English | 2024 | ISBN: 1032481900 | 283 Pages | PDF (True) | 9 MB
With accounts from the frontlines, Media Industries in Crisis provides readers with a stakeholder framework, management lessons, and urgent commentaries to unpack the nature of crisis management and communications. The authors show how these industries have not only survived, but often thrive amidst a backdrop of critical national and regional emergencies, wars, financial meltdowns, and climate disasters. This international collection―featuring case studies from 16 countries―examines how media industries managed all of these crises, successfully rebranding themselves as "essential" while making power plays in politics, economics, and culture. The chapters reveal key lessons for the meltdowns, tectonic shifts, and struggles ahead.

Free Download David S. Caudill, "Expertise in Crisis: The Ideological Contours of Public Scientific Controversies"
English | ISBN: 1529230918 | 2023 | 126 pages | PDF | 7 MB
When the utility of masks or vaccinations became politicized during the COVID-19 pandemic and lost its mooring in scientific evidence, an already-developing crisis of expertise was exacerbated. Those who believe in consensus science wondered: "How can 'those people' not see the truth?" With a foreword by Harry Collins, this book shows that the crisis is not a "scientific" controversy, but an ideological dispute with "believers" on both sides. If the advocates for consensus science acknowledge the uncertainties involved, rather than insisting on cold, hard facts, it is possible to open a pathway towards interaction and communication, even persuasion, between world views. As the crisis of expertise continues to be a global issue, this will be an invaluable resource for readers concerned about polarized societies and the distrust of consensus science.

Free Download Brian Schoen, "Continent in Crisis: The U.S. Civil War in North America "
English | ISBN: 153150129X | 2023 | 272 pages | PDF | 3 MB
Written by leading historians of the mid-nineteenth century United States, this book focuses on the continental dimensions of the U.S. Civil War. It joins a growing body of scholarship that seeks to understand the place of America's mid-nineteenth-century crisis in the broader sweep of world history. However, unlike other studies that have pursued the Civil War's connections with Europe and the Caribbean, this volume focuses on North America, particularly Mexico, British Canada, and sovereign indigenous states in the West.

Free Download Mel Nowicki, "Bringing Home the Housing Crisis: Politics, Precarity and Domicide in Austerity London"
English | ISBN: 1447361857 | 2023 | 158 pages | PDF | 6 MB
Often portrayed as an apolitical space, this book demonstrates that home is in fact a highly political concept, with a range of groups in society excluded from a 'right to home' under current UK policies. Drawing on resident interviews and analysis of political and media attitudes across three case studies - the criminalisation of squatting, the bedroom tax and family homelessness - the book explores the ways in which legislative and policy changes dismantle people's rights to secure, decent and affordable housing by framing them as undeserving.
