Summary

The advent of social media has sparked a transformative shift in the landscape of political movements and activism. This digital platform has emerged as a powerful tool for fostering social change and mobilizing masses. By providing instantaneous connectivity and a global audience, social media enables activists to transcend geographical barriers and amplify their messages. Platforms like Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram facilitate the rapid dissemination of information, making it easier to coordinate protests, raise awareness, and garner support for various causes. However, the impact of social media on activism is a double-edged sword, as it can also spread misinformation and polarization. The ability to organize swiftly through online channels has been showcased in movements like the Arab Spring and Black Lives Matter, signifying the pivotal role social media plays in shaping the course of modern socio-political dynamics. As technology evolves, understanding how to harness the potential of social media for constructive activism while mitigating its drawbacks remains a critical challenge.

    Authentic Marketing - How to...

    Authentic Marketing offers a forward-thinking approach to achieving an entirely new level of engagement with today's purpose-driven and skeptical audiences. The heart of this process involves finding the soul of your organization. When moral purpose becomes central to your organization, it can deliver benefits to both the bottom line and mankind: a profit meets purpose proposition. 
 
This path requires a reinvention of today's dated business model, abolishing the inefficient, siloed approach of developing a business strategy first and then later creating separate strategies for marketing, HR, manufacturing, R&D, etc. The new integrated model fuses a tight integration of business, technology innovation and engagement strategies, all of which are bound together by a company's moral purpose. 
 
When moral purpose is central to an organization's core, everything branches out from a place of authenticity. Rather than a siloed CSR effort, you develop employee and customer relationships based on real - not curated - connections with a brand's moral mission. You build true engagement, trust, and evangelism. And, along the way, your customers will actually help to co-create your brand.

    The Big Con - Crackpot Economics...

    The scam of supply-side economics is clearly and convincingly explained in “a classic of political journalism” (Michael Lewis). Jonathan Chait has written for a range of publications, from the Wall Street Journal to the Washington Post, and considers himself a moderate. But he’s convinced that American politics has been hijacked. Over the past three decades, a fringe group of economic hucksters has corrupted and perverted our nation’s policies, Chait argues, revealing in The Big Con how these canny zealots first took over the Republican Party, and then gamed the political system and the media so that once-unthinkable policies—without a shred of academic, expert, or even popular support—now drive the political agenda, regardless of which party is in power. The principle is supposedly “small government”—but as he demonstrates, the government is no smaller than it was in the days of Ronald Reagan; it’s simply more debt-ridden and beholden to wealthy elites. Why have these ideas succeeded in Washington even as the majority of the country recognizes them for the nonsense they are? How did a clique of extremists gain control of American economic policy and sell short the country’s future? And why do their outlandish ideas still determine policy despite repeated electoral setbacks? Explaining just how things work in Washington, DC, and distinguishing between short-term volatility in the “political weather” and the long-term, radical shift in the “political climate,” Chait presents a riveting drama of greed and deceit that should be read by every concerned citizen. “Chait is both very serious and seriously funny as he traces the rise of conservatism over the past thirty years.” —Michael Kinsley
