Racism is Not Getting Worse, it's Getting Tweeted. : A study of the impact of non-verbal cues in hashtag activism. Which emojis correlates with #blacklivesmatter and #alllivesmatter?

Erlandsson, Elin, Kristoffersson, Nora January 2021 (has links)
Scholars are often studying emojis as pure visual elements or as essential textual parts. Theories in this study bridge these subfields and examine emojis in both fields. This bridging understanding of emojis is applied to hashtag activism in the discursive Black Lives Matter debate to increase the comprehension of the impact of emojis. Emojis can be used in various hashtag activism as reinforcing visual elements that help put a figurative meaning to political movements. Emojis can also be used to change the intonation or meanings in computer-mediated communication and thereby be essential for understanding the textual meaning as a whole. The study is conducted with quantitative content analysis of tweets relating to two, here considered oppositional, hashtags; #blacklivesmatter and #alllivesmatter with the aim of receiving a comprehension of how the support of emojis affect the written statements. The study presents results and a thorough discussion that brings the conclusion of emojis having an immense impact, as both visual and textual support on the tweets written in this political online debate. / Forskare studerar ofta emojis som rena visuella element eller som väsentliga textdelar. Teorier i denna studie överbryggar dessa delfält och undersöker emojis inom båda områdena. Denna överbryggande förståelse för emojis tillämpas på hashtag-aktivism i den diskursiva Black Lives Matter-debatten för att öka förståelsen om påverkan av emojis. Emojis kan användas i olika sorters hashtag-aktivism som förstärkande visuella element som hjälper till att sätta en figurativ betydelse på politiska rörelser. Emojis kan också användas för att ändra intonationen eller betydelsen i datormedierad kommunikation och därmed vara avgörande för att förstå den textuella innebörden som helhet. Studien genomförs med kvantitativ innehållsanalys av tweets relaterade till två, här betraktade som oppositionella hashtags; #blacklivesmatter och #alllivesmatter i syfte att få en förståelse för hur emojis påverkar de skriftliga yttrandena. Studien presenterar resultat och en grundlig diskussion som drar slutsatsen att emojis har en enorm påverkan, både som ett visuellt och textuellt stöd på tweets skrivna i denna politiska online-debatt.

Les injustices numériques raciales : à la croisée du capitalisme de surveillance et du colonialisme

Nguyen, Minhly 05 1900 (has links)
À l’ère d’une économie numérique sans précédent, ce mémoire tente de comprendre la relation entre les usagers du milieu virtuel et les entreprises technologiques au pouvoir. Afin de comprendre les conséquences du marché, seront à l’étude des concepts tels que les injustices numériques et injustices numériques raciales. Essentiellement, l’objectif de ce travail sera de qualifier la place des classes subalternes dans l’écosystème numérique. Une réflexion pluridisciplinaire s’impose, avec une attention particulière portée sur le topo du racisme en relation avec la technologie. Conséquemment, le cadre normatif régulant le marché économique actuel sera mis en lumière de sorte à contester l’enjeu éthique entourant l’usage de la technologie. / In the age of an unprecedented numérique economy, this thesis attempts to understand the relationship between users of the virtual environment and the technology companies in power. In order to understand the consequences of the market, concepts such as digital injustice and digital racial injustice will be studied. Essentially, the aim of this work will be to qualify the place of the subaltern classes in the digital ecosystem. Multidisciplinary reflection is required, with particular attention paid to the topo of racism in relation to technology. Consequently, the normative framework regulating the current economic market will be brought to light, so as to challenge the ethical stakes surrounding the use of technology.
