Engaged Journalism: Connecting with Digitally Empowered News Audiences (Columbia Journalism Review Books)
by Jake BatsellEngaged Journalism explores the changing relationship between news producers and audiences and the methods journalists can use to secure the attention of news consumers. Based on Jake Batsell's extensive experience and interaction with more than twenty innovative newsrooms, this book shows that, even as news organizations are losing their agenda-setting power, journalists can still thrive by connecting with audiences through online technology and personal interaction.Batsell conducts interviews with and observes more than two dozen traditional and startup newsrooms across the United States and the United Kingdom. Traveling to Seattle, London, New York City, and Kalamazoo, Michigan, among other locales, he attends newsroom meetings, combs through internal documents, and talks with loyal readers and online users to document the successes and failures of the industry's experiments with paywalls, subscriptions, nonprofit news, live events, and digital tools including social media, data-driven interactives, news games, and comment forums. He ultimately concludes that, for news providers to survive, they must constantly listen to, interact with, and fulfill the specific needs of their audiences, whose attention can no longer be taken for granted. Toward that end, Batsell proposes a set of best practices based on effective, sustainable journalistic engagement.

Engaños digitales, víctimas reales: Historias de estafas por internet y hackeos en la Argentina
by Sebastián DavidovskyA partir de nueve casos reales ocurridos en la Argentina, Sebastián Davidovsky, periodista especializado en tecnología, explica delitos como grooming, hackeo, phishing y ransomware. Cada caso sirve para conocer cómo operan los criminales, cómo funcionan las estafas y cómo estar prevenidos para evitarlas. Usamos mail, apps, WhatsApp, home banking, archivamos, compramos, subimos fotos. Y no percibimos que, del otro lado, alguien acecha todos nuestros datos y la intimidad. A partir de nueve casos argentinos, Sebastián Davidovsky explica cómo operan los criminales a través del grooming, phishing, ransomware y otros delitos a los que todos estamos expuestos. Dice María O'Donnell que "a los que nos acercamos a la tecnología con ingenuidad, pero agradecidos por las oportunidades que ofrece, este libro resulta tan ameno como inquietante. No abruma con datos ni pretende convertirnos al nerdismo, pero con hechos reales -que reconstruye con precisión- alerta sobre riesgos poco evidentes. Las historias iluminan sobre qué pasa cuando las cosas funcionan mal en una red a la que entregamos más información de lo prudente. Sebastián nos saca de la zona de comodidad, porque estamos acostumbrados a disfrutar de las soluciones, pero no nos ponemos a pensar en qué nos quitan". Para Tomás Balmaceda, "por su volumen e impacto, es posible que estos nuevos delitos estén a punto de tenernos como víctimas (si no es que ya nos pasó). Con olfato para las grandes historias, rigor investigativo y un ritmo que no descansa, en este libro hay casos de la Argentina que nos obligan a repensar nuestra conducta digital. Además de entretener y crear conciencia, Sebastián brinda consejos para evitar ser víctimas de estos nuevos criminales, que no usan máscaras ni llevan ganzúas, sino que se esconden detrás de un usuario y una pantalla".

Engineering Secure Two-Party Computation Protocols
by Thomas SchneiderSecure two-party computation, called secure function evaluation (SFE), enables two mutually mistrusting parties, the client and server, to evaluate an arbitrary function on their respective private inputs while revealing nothing but the result. Originally the technique was considered to be too inefficient for practical privacy-preserving applications, but in recent years rapid speed-up in computers and communication networks, algorithmic improvements, automatic generation, and optimizations have enabled their application in many scenarios. The author offers an extensive overview of the most practical and efficient modern techniques used in the design and implementation of secure computation and related protocols. After an introduction that sets secure computation in its larger context of other privacy-enhancing technologies such as secure channels and trusted computing, he covers the basics of practically efficient secure function evaluation, circuit optimizations and constructions, hardware-assisted garbled circuit protocols, and the modular design of efficient SFE protocols. The goal of the author's research is to use algorithm engineering methods to engineer efficient secure protocols, both as a generic tool and for solving practical applications, and he achieves an excellent balance between the theory and applicability. The book is essential for researchers, students and practitioners in the area of applied cryptography and information security who aim to construct practical cryptographic protocols for privacy-preserving real-world applications.

English as a Lingua Franca in Japan: Towards Multilingual Practices
by Keiko Tsuchiya Mayu KonakaharaThis edited book examines the phenomenon of English as a Lingua Franca (ELF) in the Japanese context, using multilingualism as a lens through which to explore language practices and attitudes in what is traditionally viewed as a monolingual, monocultural setting. The authors cover a broad spectrum of topics within this theme, including language education policies, the nature of ELF communication in both academic and business settings, users’ and learners’ perceptions of ELF, and the pedagogy to foster ELF-oriented attitudes. Teaching and learning practices are reconsidered from ELF and multilingual perspectives, shifting the focus from the conformity to native-speaker norms to ELF users’ creative use of multilingual resources. This book is a key resource for advancing ELF study and research in Japan, and it will also be of interest to students and scholars studying multilingualism and World Englishes in other global contexts.
English as a Lingua Franca in Migrants' Trauma Narratives
by Maria Grazia GuidoThis book examines how trauma is experienced and narrated differently across languages and cultures, drawing on rich ethnographic case studies and a novel cognitive-linguistic approach to analyse the variations of English as a Lingua Franca (ELF) used in the narratives of West-African migrants and refugees in the course of intercultural encounters with Italian experts from domain-specific fields of discourse (including legal, medical, religious and cultural professionals). It examines the ways in which such experts interpret the migrants’ trauma narratives by applying discourse conventions from within their communities of practice, as well as their own native linguacultural norms. It argues persuasively for the development of a ‘hybrid ELF mode’ of intercultural communication to be used by experts in charge of unequal encounters in specialized migration contexts that can accommodate different culture-bound categorizations of trauma. This timely and important work will appeal in particular to students and scholars of applied linguistics, discourse analysis, cognitive linguistics, intercultural communication, pragmalinguistics, migration studies and healthcare communication.
English as an International Language
by Farzad SharifianThe rapid global spread of the English language has serious linguistic, ideological, socio-cultural, political, and pedagogical implications as it creates both positive interactions and negative tensions between global and local forces. Accordingly, debate about issues such as the native/non-native divide, the politics of an international language, communication in a Lingua Franca, the choice of a model for ELT, and the link between English and identity(ies) has stimulated scholarly inquiry in an unprecedented way. The chapters in this volume revisit, challenge, and expand upon established arguments and positions regarding the politics, policies, pedagogies, and practices of English as an international language, as well as its sociolinguistic and socio-psychological complexities.
