Political Polarization Online

Sinopse

Political Polarization Online explores how digital platforms and algorithms contribute to increasing ideological divides. It examines how engagement-focused algorithms, designed to maximize user interaction, inadvertently foster echo chambers. These echo chambers amplify partisan content, reinforcing existing biases and hindering constructive dialogue. The book argues that these seemingly neutral algorithms systematically increase political division, challenging the idea that online platforms are simply neutral conduits of information.

 
The book is structured into three parts, beginning with an introduction to algorithmic amplification and its role in shaping online content consumption. It then explores the psychological mechanisms that drive individuals to seek out information confirming their beliefs. Finally, it delves into the real-world consequences of online political polarization, including its impact on electoral outcomes and democratic governance.

 
By combining quantitative data analysis with qualitative case studies, the book provides a comprehensive and accessible analysis of the complex relationship between technology and political polarization.

Stratagems: A New Annotated...

Quintus Curtius

Sextus Julius Frontinus (c. A.D. 35—103) was one of the most capable administrators in the Roman Empire’s long history.  During his distinguished career, he served at least six emperors in a variety of prestigious offices, including general, consul, governor, proconsul of Asia, and supervisor of aqueducts.  He may have been the longest-serving Roman governor of Britain, a position he held for five years.   
Frontinus’s military handbook, Stratagems, was likely composed towards the end of the first century A.D.  Intended as a practical manual for military leaders, and drawing from the rich history of Greece and Rome, Stratagems offers a wealth of tactical ruses, ploys, and maneuvers that have been used to gain victory.  His focus is entirely practical:  what must a leader do to win?  Because Frontinus grasps the psychological and moral factors of conflict, his work retains a timeless importance that modern readers will find applicable to nearly every field of endeavor.  
This new, annotated translation by Quintus Curtius returns to the original Latin text to present Frontinus in a contemporary idiom to a modern audience.  Containing an explanatory introduction, a discussion of the text, hundreds of footnotes, a bibliography, and an extensive index, this translation aims to assist a new generation of readers in rediscovering an essential classic of strategic thought.
