Summary

Meme Evolution explores the transformation of internet memes from simple jokes to potent forces shaping culture and political discourse. This book offers a comprehensive analysis of meme culture, examining its origins, spread, and societal impact in the digital age. Memes function as agents of cultural transmission, reflecting and shaping our collective consciousness. The book argues that memes are powerful units of cultural information, not merely fleeting internet fads. It highlights the historical rise of the internet and social media, providing context for understanding how information now flows online.

 
The book progresses through key topics, including the evolution of memes from early internet forums to global social media platforms, the semiotic mechanisms underlying their virality, and their use in political mobilization. By examining case studies, Meme Evolution traces the spread and transformation of specific memes across different online communities. It also analyzes the role of memes in contemporary politics, exploring how they frame political issues, mobilize voters, and challenge power structures. This analysis relies on qualitative and quantitative research methods, including discourse analysis and network analysis.

 
A unique aspect of this book is its focus on the ethical dimensions of meme culture, exploring the potential for memes to spread misinformation and manipulate public opinion. It concludes by discussing the ethical implications of meme warfare and offering strategies for responsible meme creation and consumption. This makes Meme Evolution valuable to anyone interested in understanding the power and influence of memes in the digital age.

    Drawing on unpublished letters and rare sources, this is the true story behind the tragic romance and brutal assassination that ignited World War I.In the summer of 1914, three great empires dominated Europe: Germany, Russia, and Austria-Hungary. Four years later all had vanished in the chaos of World War I. One event precipitated the conflict, and at its heart was a tragic love story. When Austrian heir Archduke Franz Ferdinand married for love against the wishes of the emperor, he and his wife Sophie were humiliated and shunned, yet they remained devoted to each other and to their children. The two bullets fired in Sarajevo not only ended their love story, but also led to war and a century of conflict.Set against a backdrop of glittering privilege, Greg King and Sue Woolmans's The Assassination of the Archduke combines royal history, touching romance, and political murder in a moving portrait of the end of an era. One hundred years after the event, it offers the startling truth behind the Sarajevo assassinations, including Serbian complicity and examines rumors of conspiracy and official negligence. Events in Sarajevo also doomed the couple's children to lives of loss, exile, and the horrors of Nazi concentration camps, their plight echoing the horrors unleashed by their parents' deaths.Challenging a century of myth, The Assassination of the Archduke resonates as a very human story of love destroyed by murder, revolution, and war.With a foreword by Princess Sophie von Hohenberg, great-granddaughter of Archduke Franz Ferdinand

    An Enemy of the Crown - The...

    In the early 1970s, Sir Maurice Oldfield of the British Secret Service, MI6, embarked upon a decade-long campaign to derail the political career of Charles Haughey. The English spymaster believed Haughey was a Provisional IRA godfather, therefore, a threat to Britain. Oldfield was assisted by unscrupulous British agents and by a shadowy group of conspirators inside the Irish state's security apparatus, all sharing his distrust of Haughey. Escaping scrutiny for their actions until now, Enemy of the Crown examines more than a dozen instances of their activities.
Oldfield was conspiratorial by nature and lacked a moral compass. Involved in regime change plots and torture in the Middle East, in the Republic of Ireland he engaged with convicted criminals as agent provocateurs as well as the exploitation of pedophile rings in Northern Ireland. He and his spies engaged in dirty tricks as they ran vicious smear campaigns in Ireland, Britain and the US. MI6 and IRD intrigues were deployed to impede Haughey's bid to secure a position on Fianna Fáil's front bench and any return to respectability.
London's hateful drive against Haughey saw no let-up after Fianna Fáil's triumphal return to power in 1977 which saw them win a large majority of seats in the Dáil. When Haughey sought a place at Cabinet, Oldfield and his spies devised more dirty tricks to impede him. While Haughey was suspicious of MI6 interference, he had no inkling of the full extent of London's clandestine efforts to destroy him. By circulating lurid stories about him, they played a major part in trying to prevent him succeed Jack Lynch as Taoiseach in 1979. This book attempts to shed light on some of the anti-Haughey conspiracies which took place during the period of the late 1960s right through to the early 1980s.
