The 2020 U.S. Presidential Election Democratic Norms and Group Perceptions

The 2020 U.S. Presidential Election Democratic Norms and Group Perceptions

Citizens journalists and scholars have shown increased interest in candidate violations of democratic norms ranging from former President Trump’s campaign rhetoric to the Capitol riot. But how unusual are the former President’s actions on the campaign trail? And to what extent do norm violations benefit – or harm – presidential candidates?

How do communications based on group behaviors beliefs and attitudes affect voters during presidential campaigns? Chapters in this edited volume explore the communications of the President and other actors including groups promoting turnout and fact-checking candidate statements. It uses the historic 2020 U. S. Presidential Campaign to explore the relationship between campaign messages and democratic norms as well as the potential of social norms to shape election-year behaviors attitudes and perceptions among voters. This volume highlights different features of the changing role of democratic and group norms in presidential elections. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Political Marketing. | The 2020 U. S. Presidential Election Democratic Norms and Group Perceptions

Space Mobility and Crisis in Mega-Event Organisation Tokyo Olympics 2020's Atmospheric Irradiations

Space Mobility and Crisis in Mega-Event Organisation Tokyo Olympics 2020's Atmospheric Irradiations

This book advances an alternative critical posthumanist approach to mega-event organisation taking into account both the new and the old crises which humanity and our planet face. Taking the delayed Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games as a case study Tzanelli explores mega-event crisis and risk management in the era of extreme urbanisation natural disasters global pandemic and technoscientific control. Using the atmospheric term ‘irradiation’ (a technology of glamour and transparency as well as bodily penetration by harmful agents and strong affects) the book explores this epistemological statement diachronically (via Tokyo’s relationship with Western forms of domination) and synchronically (the city as a global cultural-political player but victim of climate catastrophes). It presents how the ‘Olympic enterprise’s’ ‘flattening’ of indigenous environmental place-making rhythms and the scientisation of space and place in the Anthropocene lead to reductionisms harmful for a viable programme of planetary recovery. An experimental study of the mega-event is enacted which considers the researcher’s analytical tools and the styles of human and non-human mobility during the mega-event as reflexive gateways to forms of posthuman flourishing. Crossing and bridging disciplinary boundaries the book will appeal to any scholar interested in mobilities theory event and environment studies sociology of knowledge and cultural globalisation. | Space Mobility and Crisis in Mega-Event Organisation Tokyo Olympics 2020's Atmospheric Irradiations

Political Economy of the Tokyo Olympics Unrestrained Capital and Development without Sustainable Principles

Political Economy of the Tokyo Olympics Unrestrained Capital and Development without Sustainable Principles

This book is an analysis of both contemporary Tokyo and the contemporary Olympic Games emphasizing the role of late-stage capitalism and political economy in shaping both. The 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games were mired in scandal from the beginning of the bidding process all the way through to the end of the games.

They reveal the reality of the Olympic development in Tokyo based on evidence and concrete policy analysis. This is a valuable resource for scholars both of contemporary Japan and of the Olympics and other mega-events. | Political Economy of the Tokyo Olympics Unrestrained Capital and Development without Sustainable Principles
