This book constitutes late breaking papers from the 23rd International Conference on Human-Computer Interaction, HCII 2021, which was held in July 2021. The conference was planned to take place in Washington DC, USA but had to change to a virtual conference mode due to the COVID-19 pandemic. A total of 5222 individuals from academia, research institutes, industry, and governmental agencies from 81 countries submitted contributions, and 1276 papers and 241 posters were included in the volumes of the proceedings that were published before the start of the conference. Additionally, 174 papers and 146 posters are included in the volumes of the proceedings published after the conference, as “Late Breaking Work” (papers and posters). The contributions thoroughly cover the entire field of HCI, addressing major advances in knowledge and effective use of computers in a variety of application areas.

By examining the centrality of Romantic authorship to both copyright and the music industry, the author highlights the mutual dependence of capitalism and Romanticism, which situates the individual as the key creative force while challenging the commodification of art and self. Marshall reveals how the desire for bootlegs is driven by the same ideals of authenticity employed by the legitimate industry in its copyright rhetoric and practice and demonstrates how bootlegs exist as an antagonistic but necessary component of an industry that does much to prevent them. This book will be of great interest to researchers and students in the sociology of culture, social theory, cultural studies and law.

Este libro contiene otros dos: un curso abreviado de comunicación (y ciudadanía) digital y un manual de estrategias para intervenir en la esfera pública. Cartografiamos el ecosistema comunicativo: identificamos sus mapas de poder, según quién controla y gestiona los canales y los flujos informativos. La era digital difumina –pero no borra– la frontera entre emisores y usuarios. Y la capacidad de la ciudadanía para generar y viralizar (des)información no ha redundado en más conocimiento sino en pseudocracia: el gobierno de la mentira. En la democracia deliberativa, que da voz a la sociedad civil, esta actúa como polo de contrapoder: exige transparencia a los representantes de la opinión pública y que los centros de poder rindan cuentas. Para ello, concretamos prácticas y estrategias de generar y procesar información. Las encuadramos en los modelos clásicos que confieren poder a las elites o al «Pueblo» y apostamos por regularlo institucionalmente.Hablamos del poder que consiste en imponer una narrativa pública, con unas agendas y unos marcos determinados. Así que estos contenidos no conciernen solo a futuros graduados en Comunicación. También constituyen materia de estudio en (pos)grados de Sociología, Ciencias Políticas, Antropología, Trabajo-Educación Social o Magisterio. Igual que la comunicación, estas páginas atraviesan distintas disciplinas y desbordan las fronteras académicas. Ojalá vuel-van a saltar los muros de los campus y se hagan merecedoras de los elogios que equipararon versiones previas de este libro a un «manual de instrucciones» para generar el relato que la opinión pública asume como propio. Esta es la máxima expresión de poder comunicativo. Y, en democracia, determina quién (no) nos representa y gestiona –o destroza– el bien común.

This book analyses the punitive crime discourse in the Argentinean press during the 1990s. Fernandez Roich focusses on several features of media discourse during this time, such as: the notion that petty criminals ‘deserve to die' in reference to police brutality and killings, the phenomenon of ‘vindicators’ or how common citizens turned into ‘evil’ modern heroes in the press, and the parallelism between the military discourse under the military regime and the punitive discourse under democracy. In addition, the book also investigates the alleged natural propensity towards breaking the law ingrained within Argentinean culture, the so-called 'viveza criolla' and the well-ingrained idea that to get ahead you have to participate in corrupt practices. Despite the significant scholarly interest in the United States and Europe in the last Argentinean dictatorship (1976-1983), little attention has been paid to the role of Argentinean newspapers in supporting the military coup d’état. The analysis of this media discourse is critical to understanding the support enjoyed by the armed forces in power: the vast majority of the population was not informed about the disappearances or the concentration camps until well into the 1980s. This project provides an in-depth qualitative content analysis of front pages, chronicles, editorials and photographs of Argentinean newspapers before and after the military intervention that will aid scholars of criminal justice and Latin American political regimes understand the impact of the support given to the military government.
