Lo sviluppo della radiofonia privata locale in Italia - un paragone alla situazione finlandese

Il monopolio statale si rompe in Italia già nel 1976 e le piccole antenne private sono nate come funghi. Talvolta gli studiosi hanno ipotizzato che questo settore radiofonico fiorisca e sia in continua crescita in Italia, comparato particolarmente alla situazione finlandese. Tra i radioascoltatori internazionali l'Italia è considerata il paradiso delle antenne locali per la gran quantità degli impianti radiofonici in ambito locale. Si ipotizza anche che la gran quantità delle stazioni di radio garantisca automaticamente l'obiettività dell'informazione, o almeno la polifonia della radio. Invece in Finlandia lo Stato ha limitato il diritto di impiantare una stazione radio e il numero delle stazioni in rete con una legge abbastanza rigida a livello europeo per controllare la privatizzazione del settore e la diffusione della nuova ideologia di radiofonia libera. Con la mia ricerca vorrei affermare la correttezza di tali ipotesi e, allo stesso tempo, verificare se l'Italia sia tuttora un paradiso di radiofonia locale. Uno degli scopi di questa ricerca è far capire che la formazione e la struttura del campo radiofonico dipende spesso della società intorno a sé. Dal momento che l'analisi si basa parzialmente sui metodi quantitativi, diamo un'occhiata ai numeri delle stazioni statali, reti nazionali e seminazionali e radio locali e provinciali nella provincia di Parma e in Finlandia Propria. Inoltre in questa tesi di laurea vorrei ricercare quali potrebbero essere i motivi storici, legislativi, culturali ed economici che hanno influito sul precoce sviluppo italiano nel campo della radiofonia locale. Per dare una più ampia visione della situazione italiana, ho fatto delle osservazioni sulla struttura del campo radiofonico in questi due paesi, sulle differenze essenziali tra Finlandia e Italia e sui motivi che influiscono nella nascita della radiofonia privata in ambito locale paragonando i fatti italiani con quelli finlandesi. Questa ricerca può dare un contributo importante agli appassionati del radioascolto ed essere utile come inizio di una più vasta valutazione di radiofonia locale per coloro che sono interessati ai mass media come mezzi di comunicazione, di potere e di democrazia. Contrariamente agli articoli anteriori e alle ricerche fatte, ormai la radiofonia provinciale non ha più molta importanza in Italia. Possiamo dire che non ci sia più un modello italiano da ammirare, perché le reti nazionali dominano le frequenze e raccolgono ormai un pubblico di dimensioni ragguardevoli e in continua crescita. Anche se il numero delle emittenti locali è diminuito notevolmente nella provincia di Parma, non possiamo concludere che la radiofonia locale in Italia sia morta basandosi su una sola ricerca che riguarda il cambiamento della struttura radiofonica in una località italiana.

Factors associated with institutional delivery in Dangila district, North West Ethiopia: a cross-sectional study.

Introduction: Childbirth in a health institution has been shown to be associated with lower rates of maternal and neonatal mortality. However, about 85% of mothers in Ethiopia deliver at home. Objective: To assess factors associated with institutional delivery service utilization among women who gave birth within one year prior to the study in Dangila district. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted from February 01-28, 2015. A total of 763 mothers were interviewed using structured questionnaire. SPSS version 20 was used for analysis. Crude and adjusted Odds ratios were computed for selected variables. A P-value less than 0.05 was considered statistical significant. Results: Only 18.3% of mothers gave birth at health facilities. Knowledge on danger signs [AOR=2.0, 95% CI: (1.1, 3.4)], plan to give birth at health institution [AOR=5.4, 95% CI: (3.0, 9.6)], having ANC follow up during pregnancy [AOR=12.9, 95% CI: (5.0, 33.3)] and time taken to get to a nearby health institution [AOR=5.1, 95% CI: (2.9, 9.1)] were associated with institutional delivery service utilization. Conclusion: Institutional delivery was very low. Knowledge about danger signs, having ANC visits, and time were factors associated with institutional delivery service utilization. Thus,the findings recommend repeated re-enforcement of institutional delivery service utilization through professionals. And also, the findings recommend promotion of institutional delivery service utilization through mass media.

“In The Good Old Days of Long Ago": Echoes of Vaudeville and Minstrelsy in the Music of Uncle Dave Macon

Uncle Dave Macon provided an essential link between nineteenth-century, urban popular stage music (especially the minstrel show and vaudeville) and commercialized country music of the 1920s. He preserved through his recordings a large body of songs and banjo techniques that had their origins in urban-based, nineteenth-century vaudeville and minstrelsy. Like the minstrel and vaudeville performers of the nineteenth century, Macon told jokes and stories, employed attention-grabbing stage gimmicks, marketed himself with boastful or outrageous slogans, and dressed with individual flair. At the same time, Macon incorporated many features from the rural-based folk music of Middle Tennessee. Overall, Macon’s repertoire, musical style, and stage persona (which included elements of the rube, country gentleman, and old man) demonstrated his deep absorption, and subsequent reinterpretation, of nineteenth-century musical traditions. Macon’s career offers a case study in how nineteenth-century performance styles, repertoire, and stage practices became a part of country music in the 1920s. As an artist steeped in two separate, but overlapping, types of nineteenth-century music—stage and folk—Macon was well-positioned to influence the development of the new commercial genre. He brought together several strains of nineteenth-century music to form a modern, twentieth-century musical product ideally suited to the new mass media of records, radio, and film. By tracing Macon’s career and studying his music, we can observe how the cross-currents of rural and popular entertainment during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries interacted to form the commercial genre we now know as country music.

From carbon markets to carbon morality: creative compounds as framing devices in online discourses on climate change mitigation

Lexical combinations of at least two roots around "carbon" as the hub, such as "carbon finance" or "carbon footprint," have recently become ubiquitous in English-speaking science, politics, and mass media. They are part of a new language evolving around the issue of climate change that can reveal how it is framed by various stakeholders. In this article, the authors study the role of these "carbon compounds" as tools of communication in different online discourses on climate change mitigation. By combining a quantitative analysis of their occurrences with a qualitative analysis of the contexts in which the compounds were used, the authors identify three clusters of compounds focused on finance, lifestyle, and attitudes and elucidate the communicative purposes to which they were put between the 1990s and the early 21st century. This approach may open up new ways of analyzing the framings of climate change mitigation initiatives in the public sphere.

Henri Lefebvre: possibilidades teórico-metodológicas para Arquitetura e urbanismo

This paper presents the theoretical-methodological possibilities of the French philosopher and sociologist Henri Lefebvre, for the discipline of architecture and urbanism in an effort to overcome the fragmentation imposed by the institutionalization of science in general. From Du rural à l'urbain (Lefebvre, 1970) compilation, it brings the author's other works from the period between 1968 and 1974, indicating the conduits for reflection and their interrelationships with methods, types of analyses and other procedures to treat the space-time urban. The methodology involves a research on the author s 'today and yesterday' in the scientific field, a research and analysis of his procedures in highlight of philosophical, social, economic and political aspects, the historical context of his references and provides significant and possible elements for the study, research and extension in the area in question

Nutritional guide for a modern woman: a strategy for health education

"In the present article, we introduce a Health Education instrument that stems from a refection on the lay knowledge, salutogenic habits and daily nutritional practices of modern women in our current society. We developed a guide aimed at modern women, where the different food groups and food hygiene and safety measures are addressed. The guide includes eleven original pictograms that help the reader to locate and look up specific issues. The guide employs the label reading and interpretation principles, following the nutrition traffic-light internationally instituted, for it renders scientific information on nutrition clear and accessible to the general population. We believe that using this guide as a central strategy in health promotion will lead its users to adopt essential changes in their eating patterns and, in so doing, contribute to prevent diseases associated to bad eating habits. We also emphasize the role of mass media in spreading the conveyed information."

Playing Miami : Afrocuban performance artists negotiating cubanidad

The social scripts that are deeply involved in cultural production by AfroCuban identified artists in Miami, during the late nineties to the present, participate in a climate that is informed by and feeds from the so-called Latin Explosion of this time period. More specifically, varying historical, socioeconomic, and geopolitical trajectories have placed Africa and African-based religion and cultural production (via music and theatre) at the center of Cuban national identity. The purpose of this study is to facilitate a discussion of the experiences of AfroCuban performance artists and the climate for production, given the aforementioned dynamics, in mass media. These experiences are directed by a study of transnational structures for cultural production (including the more recent memory-shadow of hip-hop culture in Cuba) and discourse that engages theories of modernity, authenticity, and resistance. Through the interventions of artists, producers, and distributors via their art and business, the text identifies and resists the pervasive oppression of stereotype, dehumanization (Othering), and essentialism.

Aproximación al impacto del Carnaval de Cádiz en la prensa escrita gaditana

El Carnaval de Cádiz puede considerarse un fenómeno sociológico de especial singularidad. Su evolución histórica, desde sus orígenes más remotos hasta hoy, lo ha dotado de un marcado carácter contestatario. Además, el desarrollo de sus agrupaciones (principalmente sus coros, chirigotas, comparsas y cuartetos) le diferencia de otros carnavales del mundo y lo identifica también como un fenómeno comunicacional. Es precisamente ahí donde se centra este trabajo: las relaciones entre el carnaval gaditano y los mass media, concretamente la prensa escrita.

Memoria en publicidad y mercadeo

La psicología y la publicidad son dos disciplinas que desde hace algunos años se han venido complementando, la publicidad es la disciplina que se ha visto beneficiada con esta alianza, ya que el principal aporte que le hace la psicología a la publicidad es poder determinar aquellos factores o estrategias que generan en el consumidor; atención, asociación entre marca y producto, para luego almacenarse en la memoria y así generar una posible conducta de compra en el individuo. Los medios de comunicación cumplen un papel muy importante, ya que son los instrumentos utilizados para la transmisión de la información publicitaria, dependiendo del medio utilizado ya sea prensa, televisión o radio, las estrategias implementadas para dar a conocer la información deben ir dirigidas al campo perceptivo, que se utiliza para recibir la información y lograr una adecuada asociación y posterior almacenamiento en la memoria. La publicidad y el mercadeo hacen uso de una prueba de evaluación; top of mind, que muestra la jerarquía de recuerdo en la memoria de los individuos ante la mención de una categoría de servicio de un producto.

Principios de la actividad electoral en la era digital : una aproximación al control administrativo colombiano de la propaganda electoral en Internet

El desarrollo tecnológico y la expansión de las formas de comunicación en Colombia, no solo trajeron consigo grandes beneficios, sino también nuevos retos para el Estado Moderno. Actualmente, la oferta de espacios de difusión de propaganda electoral ha aumentado, mientras persiste un marco legal diseñado para los medios de comunicación del Siglo XX. Por tanto, este trabajo no solo realiza un diagnóstico de los actuales mecanismos de control administrativo sobre la propaganda electoral en Internet, sino también propone unos mecanismos que garanticen los principios de la actividad electoral, siendo esta la primera propuesta en Colombia. Por el poco estudio del tema, su alcance es exploratorio, se basa en un enfoque jurídico-institucional. Se utilizaron métodos cualitativos de recolección de datos (trabajo de archivo y entrevistas) y de análisis (tipologías, comparaciones, exegesis del marco legal), pero también elementos cuantitativos como análisis estadísticos.

Una mirada al fenómeno de la violencia escolar en Costa Rica

In the current context of education, parents, students, teachers, media and other sectors of Costa Rican society, express concern about the problem of school violence, a social phenomenon that has been increasing in recent years. Its manifestations are perceived by means of abuse behavior, intimidation, verbal or physical abuse among youth, which are constructed through cultural practices. Therefore, to understand this problem, reflection about possible causes is in order, taking into account the context in which social interaction is developed in each school. Some of the manifestations of violence are rooted in the family, the community, the imitation of the behavioral patterns, and the influence of mass media. Moreover, these behaviors are reinforced by the current curriculum model, generating resistance to institutional rules.
