Communicating Nation Troubled Times Brazilian

项目摘要

In the last decade, a range of political, economic and technological upheavals -including Brexit, the 2008 financial crisis, the rise of Trump, and the proliferation of digital media- has made the terrain of mediated nationhood unstable, upsetting established channels and practices of communicating national belonging. Hence, a new research agenda for the study of mediated nationhood is required, which draws on a variety of methods and theories from communication and media studies, along with insights from nationalism studies and promotional cultures research. I begun development of that agenda during my PhD thesis, which focussed on media, nationhood and visibility in the context of the Brazilian uprising of 2013. The uprising put in question the efforts of the Brazilian government to communicate -throughout the hosting of the World Cup and the Olympic games- a modern, peaceful and market-friendly version of their nation.My doctoral work made a decisive intervention in the research field around mediated nationhood, throwing into sharp relief the profound transformation of mediated nationhood in a digital communication ecology, while acknowledging the continued influence of 'old' media and their adaptation to the affordances of digital technologies. My thesis demonstrated both the potential of digital media to disrupt existing power structures and establish new ways of representing the nation, along with the vulnerability of the media to continuing commercial pressures, political interferences and technological constrains. The excellence and originality of my analysis was demonstrated by the fact that I passed the viva with no corrections, having been examined by key authorities in the field -Professor Simon Cottle and Dr Liz Moor-, and that I have successfully produced high-quality publications from my research.Building on the findings of my doctoral work, I will use the ESRC Postdoctoral Fellowship to develop a research programme for the study of mediated nationhood in the current context. I will continue disseminating the findings of my work, but orient myself more decisively to broad international audiences in relevant fields to ensure the global resonance of my work. To this end, I will pursue three key routes to impact: 1. I will submit three articles to top journals in the field of media and communications, such as Media, Culture and Society, Communication Theory and the European Journal of Communication. These publications will give greater exposure to the main theoretical and empirical findings of my doctoral research among a global audience of scholars. 2. I will target key international conferences in the field of communication and media, such as those of the International Communication Association, the International Association for Media and Communication Research, and the Media, Communication and Cultural Studies Association. These conferences will be helpful to build networks through which I can develop more impact opportunities for my work. 3. I will deepen my engagement with non-academic audiences, developing pathways that will help me build non-academic impact, as well as discussing ideas that will feed into further research. Along with these routes to impact, I will develop a new research proposal that will look at the mediation of Britain at the time of Brexit. Whilst the proposed research will build upon the findings of my work about the communication of Brazil during the protests of June 2013, this new project will help me to implement and develop my ideas on media, nationhood and visibility beyond the specific case study of my doctoral work. During the course of the fellowship, I will conduct preliminary theoretical and empirical work, in order to test ideas and methodologies for a future project, and I will develop a funding application under either the Leverhulme postdoctoral fellowship scheme, the British Academy postdoctoral fellowships, or the ESRC New Investigator grants.

过去十年中，一系列政治、经济和技术剧变——包括英国脱欧、2008年金融危机、特朗普的崛起以及数字媒体的扩散——使得调解国家的格局变得不稳定，扰乱了传达民族归属感的既定渠道和做法。因此，需要一个新的研究议程来研究媒介民族性，该议程借鉴传播和媒体研究的各种方法和理论，以及民族主义研究和宣传文化研究的见解。我在博士论文期间就开始制定这一议程，该论文的重点是 2013 年巴西起义背景下的媒体、国家地位和知名度。这场起义使人们对巴西政府在举办世界杯和奥运会期间传播其国家的现代、和平和市场友好版本的努力产生了疑问。我的博士工作对围绕媒介的研究领域做出了决定性的干预国家性，突显数字通信生态中媒介国家性的深刻转变，同时承认“旧”媒体的持续影响及其对数字技术可供性的适应。我的论文展示了数字媒体破坏现有权力结构和建立代表国家的新方式的潜力，以及媒体面对持续的商业压力、政治干预和技术限制的脆弱性。我的分析的卓越性和独创性体现在以下事实：我没有任何修正地通过了 Viva，并接受了该领域的主要权威人士——Simon Cottle 教授和 Liz Moor 博士的审查，并且我已经成功地从我的研究中发表了高质量的出版物。基于我的博士工作的结果，我将利用 ESRC 博士后奖学金来开发一个研究项目，用于研究当前的中介国家地位。语境。我将继续传播我的工作成果，但更果断地将自己定位于相关领域的广大国际受众，以确保我的工作在全球引起共鸣。为此，我将寻求三个关键途径来产生影响： 1.我将向媒体和传播领域的顶级期刊提交三篇文章，例如《媒体》、《文化与社会》、《传播理论》和《欧洲传播杂志》。这些出版物将使全球学者更多地了解我的博士研究的主要理论和实证结果。 2.我将针对传播和媒体领域的重要国际会议，例如国际传播协会、国际媒体和传播研究协会、媒体、传播和文化研究协会的会议。这些会议将有助于建立网络，通过这些网络我可以为我的工作创造更多影响力的机会。 3. 我将加深与非学术受众的接触，开发有助于我建立非学术影响力的途径，并讨论将有助于进一步研究的想法。除了这些影响途径之外，我还将制定一项新的研究提案，研究英国脱欧时的调解工作。虽然拟议的研究将建立在我关于 2013 年 6 月抗议期间巴西传播的工作结果的基础上，但这个新项目将帮助我在我的博士工作的具体案例研究之外实施和发展我在媒体、国家地位和知名度方面的想法。在奖学金期间，我将进行初步的理论和实证工作，以便测试未来项目的想法和方法，并且我将根据 Leverhulme 博士后奖学金计划、英国科学院博士后奖学金或 ESRC 新研究员资助项目开发资助申请。
