Social Media 100 Success Secrets: Social Media, Web 2.0 User-Generated Content and Virtual Communities - 100 Most Asked Mass Collaboration Questions

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Social media can take many different forms, including Internet forums, weblogs, wikis, podcasts, pictures and video. Technologies include: blogs, picture-sharing, vlogs, wall-postings, email, instant messaging, music-sharing, crowdsourcing, and voice over IP, to name a few. This terrific exploration of Social Media shows how organizations are communicating directly with important constituents. And it`s done with real word examples, not theory. In the past, marketers could try all kinds of expensive advertising to get the word out to new buyers, with little to show for the investment. These are companies where the existing customers love the products, but the media doesn`t seem to care. Many people are saying that big budget marketing and PR programs just aren`t working anymore so they are asking: `How do you get noticed in a crowded marketplace?` This book shows the power of online thought leadership and communicating to people directly without the advertising and media… [detailed...]

Social Movements and Economic Transition: Markets and Distributive Conflict in Mexico

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: This book examines patterns of political mobilization among groups in Mexico whose livelihoods have been threatened by trade opening, fiscal retrenchment, and market liberalization. Using data from case studies of a worker-based movement and a farmer-based movement, Williams argues that economic transition, in altering modes of state-society bargaining, has shifted the locus of contention and has altered the form and shape of distributive protest. Williams further argues that social movements make strategic choices in their use of resources in order to widen their constituencies and extend the length of their insurgencies. [detailed...]

Social Movements in Advanced Capitalism: The Political Economy and Cultural Construction of Social Activism

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Sociology and social movements are twin siblings of modernity that view the world as a social construction to be understood and transformed respectively. Based on this premise, Buechler argues for the centrality of social movements to the shape of the modern world as well as the discipline of sociology. Building on a critical overview of current social movement theory, this book presents a structural model for analyzing social movements in advanced capitalism. This model provides a historically specific analysis that located movements in global, national, regional, and local structures. The heart of the book draws on diverse theoretical traditions within sociology (world system theory, critical theory, neo-Marxism, class/race/gender theories, theories ofeveryday life) to specify the structural constraints and opportunities that comprise the environment in which movements mobilize and contest for power. Movement dynamics are explored in terms of their dialectical relationship with… [detailed...]

Social Policy and Social Programs: A Method for the Practical Public Policy Analyst (4th Edition)

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: This book provides a framework for the analysis of historical social programs as well as guidelines for designing new programs and improving existing ones. Most notably, it offers a method for analyzing personal social services such as cunseling and the personal, therapeutic, supportive helping that most social workers generally do, as opposed to merely `hard benefits` such as food stamps, cash, or housing vouchers. To help readers make the transition from theory to practice, an example hapter applies the method of analysis presented in the book to a specific community mental health program and presents the results of that analysis. Early chapters offer a history of social problem perspectives as well as social program ad policy provisions, followed by guidelines for locating important court decisions that shape the way a social program or policy is implemented. New sections on evaluation present evaluative criteria for judging the effectiveness of… [detailed...]

Social Policy, Employment And Family Change in Comparative Perspective (Globalization and Welfare Series)

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: This book is a comparative study of family change, parental employment and social policy in the five Nordic countries, the Netherlands, Germany and the United Kingdom. In all these countries family forms have been profoundly affected by lower fertility rates, lower marriage rates, increased cohabitation, higher risks of relationship breakdown and episodes of lone parenthood. These changes have also been linked to an increase in the proportion of mothers participating in the labor market. The contributors to this book trace these social trends over the last twenty years and analyze how social policy has developed and evolved in response. They argue that while the Nordic countries pioneered efforts to recognize new family forms and reconcile work and family life, there is still considerable variation between them as well as some evidence that the non-Nordic countries are catching up. Social Policy, Employment and Family Change in Comparative Perspective will strongly appeal to… [detailed...]

Social Power and the CEO: Leadership and Trust in a Sustainable Free Enterprise System

2002 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The power of top management is pervasive and profound. It affects the quality of economic life, but also our personal and social lives. Equally strong is its impact on the sustainability of a free enterprise system. Psychoanalyst, teacher, and managementconsultant, Elliott Jaques argues that great as this power is, it is being squandered, not because of what managers do but because of what they don`t know. Serious misconceptions about managerial leadership--and equally serious misunderstandings of people--abound. Jaques argues that the problems inherent in the way management is practiced are attributable to gravely dysfunctional systems of managerial leadership, systems that have evolved over the years and are now, despite their ineffectualities, taken for granted. The result of more than a half century of thought, observation, analysis and experimentation, Jaques` book is essential reading for academics, students, consultants, top management, and executives on the way up throughout… [detailed...]

Social Protection Versus Economic Flexibility: Is There a Trade-Off? (National Bureau of Economic Research Comparative Labor Markets)

Publisher: —
Description: As the Clinton administration considers major overhauls in health insurance, welfare, and labor market regulation, it is important for economists and policymakers to understand the impact of social and welfare programs on employment rates. This volume explores how programs such as social security, income transfers, and child care in Western Europe, the United States, and Japan have affected labor market flexibility--the ability of workers to adjust to fast-growing segments of the economy. Does tying health insurance to employment limit job mobility? Do housing policies inhibit workers from moving to new jobs in different areas? What are the effects of daycare and maternity leave policies on working mothers? The authors explore these and many other questions in an effort to understand why European unemployment rates are so high compared with the U.S. rate. Through an examination of diverse data sets across different countries, the authors find that social protection… [detailed...]
