But recent developments in communication and information technologies have given terrorist and extremist groups options and abilities they never would have been able to come close to even 5 or 10 years ago. There are terrorist groups who, with very little initial investment, are making videos that are coming so close to the quality of BBC or CNN broadcasts that the difference is meaningless, and with access to the web they have instantaneous access to a global audience. Given the broad social science consensus on the power of visual images relative to that of words, the strategic implications of these groups' sophistication in the use of images in the online environment is carefully considered in a variety of contexts by the authors in this collection --$cSource other than the Library of Congress. 606 $aTerrorism and mass media 606 $aMass media and propaganda 606 $aTerrorism$xComputer network resources 606 $aVisual communication$xPolitical aspects 606 $aInternet$xPolitical aspects 606 $aExtremist Web sites 615 0$aTerrorism and mass media. 615 0$aMass media and propaganda. 615 0$aTerrorism$xComputer network resources. 615 0$aVisual communication$xPolitical aspects. 615 0$aInternet$xPolitical aspects. 615 0$aExtremist Web sites. 676 $a363.325 702 $aWinkler$b Carol 702 $aDauber$b Cori Elizabeth 712 02$aArmy War College (U.S.).$bStrategic Studies Institute, 712 02$aArmy War College (U.S.).$bPress, 801 0$bAWC 801 1$bAWC 801 2$bGPO 801 2$bNOC 801 2$bOKU 801 2$bOCLCF 801 2$bGPO 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910703461403321 996 $aVisual propaganda and extremism in the online environment$93202086 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04133oam 2200493M 450 001 9910782972503321 005 20230126203927.0 010 $a1-351-32019-X 010 $a1-351-32020-3 010 $a1-351-32018-1 035 $a(CKB)1000000000726790 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC5265653 035 $a(OCoLC)1004027198 035 $a(OCoLC-P)1004027198 035 $a(FlBoTFG)9781351320191 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000726790 100 $a20170915d2017 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcn||||||||| 181 $2rdacontent 182 $2rdamedia 183 $2rdacarrier 200 10$aCrisis in Sociology $ethe Need for Darwin /$fJoseph Lopreato 205 $aFirst edition. 210 1$aLondon :$cTaylor and Francis,$d2017. 215 $a1 online resource (278 pages) 311 $a1-138-52155-8 311 $a0-7658-0874-9 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and indexes. 327 $tPart, 1 From Early Promise to Deepening Crisis /$rJoseph Lopreato Timothy Crippen --$tchapter 1 The Early Promise /$rJoseph Lopreato Timothy Crippen --$tchapter 2 The Deepening Crisis /$rJoseph Lopreato Timothy Crippen --$tchapter 3 Why the Crisis: A Sketch /$rJoseph Lopreato Timothy Crippen --$tpart, 2 Elements of Evolutionary Theory /$rJoseph Lopreato Timothy Crippen --$tchapter 4 Darwin's Theory of Natural Selection /$rJoseph Lopreato Timothy Crippen --$tchapter 5 Elements of Evolutionary Behavioral Science /$rJoseph Lopreato Timothy Crippen --$tpart, 3 Select Adaptations and Applications /$rJoseph Lopreato Timothy Crippen --$tchapter 6 Fundamentals of Sex Differences /$rJoseph Lopreato Timothy Crippen --$tchapter 7 An Uneasy Alliance /$rJoseph Lopreato Timothy Crippen --$tchapter 8 Fundamentals of Social Stratification /$rJoseph Lopreato Timothy Crippen --$tchapter 9 The Clannish Brain /$rJoseph Lopreato Timothy Crippen. 330 2 $a"Crisis in Sociology presents a compelling portrait of sociology's current troubles and proposes a controversial remedy. In the authors' view, sociology's crisis has deep roots, traceable to the over-ambitious sweep of the discipline's founders. Generations of sociologists have failed to focus effectively on the tasks necessary to build a social science. The authors see sociology's most disabling flaw in the failure to discover even a single general law or principle. This makes it impossible to systematically organize empirical observations, guide inquiry by suggesting falsifiable hypotheses, or form the core of a genuinely cumulative body of knowledge. Absent such a theoretical tool, sociology can aspire to little more than an amorphous mass of hunches and disconnected facts. The condition engenders confusion and unproductive debate. It invites fragmentation and predation by applied social disciplines, such as business administration, criminal justice, social work, and urban studies. Even more dangerous are incursions by prestigious social sciences and by branches of evolutionary biology that constitute the frontier of the current revolution in behavioral science. Lopreato and Crippen argue that unless sociology takes into account central developments in evolutionary science, it will not survive as an academic discipline. Crisis in Sociology argues that participation in the "new social science," exemplified by thriving new fields such as evolutionary psychology, will help to build a vigorous, scientific sociology. The authors analyze research on such subjects as sex roles, social stratification, and ethnic conflict, showing how otherwise disconnected features of the sociological landscape can in fact contribute to a theoretically coherent and cumulative body of knowledge."--Provided by publisher. 606 $aSociology$xResearch 606 $aSocial Darwinism 615 0$aSociology$xResearch. 615 0$aSocial Darwinism. 676 $a301/.07/2 700 $aLopreato$b Joseph$0124923 701 $aCrippen$b Timothy$01563425 801 0$bOCoLC-P 801 1$bOCoLC-P 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910782972503321 996 $aCrisis in Sociology$93831819 997 $aUNINA
