Book Synopsis Meaning and Publicity by : Manning Richard N.
Download or read book Meaning and Publicity written by Manning Richard N. and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2017-12-21 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The papers collected in this volume all discuss the ways and extent to which the determinants of meaning must be public. In the philosophy of language there are currently two main traditions concerning the relationship between meaning and public phenomena. According to one tradition language is public in principle, so that there can be nothing to the meaning of linguistic expressions that cannot be accounted for in terms of the behaviour in context of linguistic subjects. According to the other tradition linguistic meaning is determined by the content of the mental representations that are expressed in overt speech acts. On such views, the properties of the mental are prior to language and linguistic meaning should be explained by appeal to mental concepts. There divergent traditions leave us with a question: Is linguistic meaning to be explained on the basis of a pre-linguistic biological or mental capacity which "goes public " in overt speech, or is it to be explained on the basis of pubic behaviour in context which "goes private "in thought, and which determines the contents of the mental?
Book Synopsis How Propaganda Became Public Relations by : Cory Wimberly
Download or read book How Propaganda Became Public Relations written by Cory Wimberly and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-11-07 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How Propaganda Became Public Relations pulls back the curtain on propaganda: how it was born, how it works, and how it has masked the bulk of its operations by rebranding itself as public relations. Cory Wimberly uses archival materials and wide variety of sources — Foucault’s work on governmentality, political economy, liberalism, mass psychology, and history — to mount a genealogical challenge to two commonplaces about propaganda. First, modern propaganda did not originate in the state and was never primarily located in the state; instead, it began and flourished as a for-profit service for businesses. Further, propaganda is not focused on public beliefs and does not operate mainly through lies and deceit; propaganda is an apparatus of government that aims to create the publics that will freely undertake the conduct its clients’ desire. Businesses have used propaganda since the early twentieth century to construct the laboring, consuming, and voting publics that they needed to secure and grow their operations. Over that time, corporations have become the most numerous and well-funded apparatuses of government in the West, operating privately and without democratic accountability. Wimberly explains why liberal strategies of resistance have failed and a new focus on creating mass subjectivity through democratic means is essential to countering propaganda. This book offers a sophisticated analysis that will be of interest to scholars and advanced students working in social and political philosophy, Continental philosophy, political communication, the history of capitalism, and the history of public relations.

Book Synopsis Public Relations by : Edward L. Bernays

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Public relations as described in this volume is, among other things, society’s solution to problems of maladjustment that plague an overcomplex world. All of us, individuals or organizations, depend for survival and growth on adjustment to our publics. Publicist Edward L. Bernays offers here the kind of advice individuals and a variety of organizations sought from him on a professional basis during more than four decades. With such knowledge, every intelligent person can carry on his or her activities more effectively. This book provides know-why as well know-how. Bernays explains the underlying philosophy of public relations and the PR methods and practices to be applied in specific cases. He presents broad approaches and solutions as they were successfully carried out in his long professional career. Public relations is not publicity, press agentry, promotion, advertising, or a bag of tricks, but a continuing process of social integration. It is a field of adjusting private and public interest. Everyone engaged in any public activity, and every student of human behavior and society, will find in this book a challenge and opportunity to further both the public interest and their own interest.

This is an OCR edition with typos. Excerpt from book: WHAT IS ADVERTISING? WHAT is Advertising? There are many definitions given for this twentieth century art of promoting the sale of products and commodities, each being the product of an individual experience and individual viewpoint. To the owner of a large department store in a city advertising has a different meaning from that which attaches to the word in the mind of the manufacturer who is making a product that is sent all over the world and whose market is limited only by the boundaries of civilized society. The field of his operations is the human race, or at least that portion of it which is capable of using the product which he has to sell. To him the art of advertising is a big question. He is concerned with the problem of reaching all kinds of people of diversified tastes and interests in many climes and representing wide and varied types of civilization. The Geography of Advertising A man who manufactures a farm wagon and who seeks a world-wide market for hisproduct must make a wagon for all kinds of people and for all kinds of countries and for all kinds of service, and to him, therefore, the problem of advertising is a problem of adapting his publicity to all the conditions presented by all kinds of people. The geography of his advertising is continental. His idea of advertising must, therefore, be somewhat different from that of the man who is seeking to reach consumers in the market which is circumscribed by the boundaries of the city or the town; and yet the same principles of practical publicity apply to both problems. It is also a fact worth noting that the definition of advertising twenty years ago would not be a definition of advertising under its modern twentieth century development, and the reason for this may be found in the fact that the adve...

Book Synopsis Advertising Progress by : Pamela Walker Laird
Download or read book Advertising Progress written by Pamela Walker Laird and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2020-01-15 with total page 584 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Selected by Choice Magazine as an Outstanding Academic Title Originally published in 1998. Drawing on both documentary and pictorial evidence, Pamela Walker Laird explores the modernization of American advertising to 1920. She links its rise and transformation to changes that affected American society and business alike, including the rise of professional specialization and the communications revolution that new technologies made possible. Laird finds a fundamental shift in the kinds of people who created advertisements and their relationships to the firms that advertised. Advertising evolved from the work of informing customers (telling people what manufacturers had to sell) to creating consumers (persuading people that they needed to buy). Through this story, Laird shows how and why—in the intense competitions for both markets and cultural authority—the creators of advertisements laid claim to "progress" and used it to legitimate their places in American business and culture.

Book Synopsis Manager's Guide to Excellence in Public Relations and Communication Management by : David M. Dozier
Download or read book Manager's Guide to Excellence in Public Relations and Communication Management written by David M. Dozier and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-18 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reports findings of a three-nation study of public relations and communication management sponsored by the International Association of Business Communicators (IABC) Research Foundation. The Excellence Study provides communication managers and public relations practitioners with information critical to their own professional growth, and supplies organizations with tools that help them communicate more effectively and build beneficial relations with key publics. Communication excellence is a powerful idea of sweeping scope that applies to all organizations -- large or small -- that need to communicate effectively with publics on whom the organization's survival and growth depend. The essential elements of excellent communication are the same for corporations, not-for-profit organizations, government agencies, and professional/trade associations. And they are applicable on a global basis. The study identifies three spheres of communication excellence. These spheres consider the overall function and role of communication in organizations, and define the organization of this book. They are: * the core or inner sphere of communication excellence -- the knowledge base of the communication department, * the shared expectations of top communicators and senior managers about the function and role of communication, and * the organization's culture -- the larger context that either nurtures or impedes communication excellence. This text also examines communication excellence as demonstrated in specific programs developed for specific publics.
Book Synopsis Understanding Public Relations by : Lee Edwards
Download or read book Understanding Public Relations written by Lee Edwards and published by SAGE. This book was released on 2018-04-17 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book argues that public relations is not merely an organizational tool, but a powerful influence on social and political life. From carefully considered communication by multinational corporations, to government campaigns that manage public opinion, to the self-promotion of celebrities via social media, public relations is central to our individual and collective lives. Understanding Public Relations introduces a socio-cultural approach to public relations as a way of analysing the growing importance of public relations in its social, cultural and political contexts. Encouraging a deeper and more critical understanding of its influence on society, Lee Edwards: Explores public relations in relation to contemporary debates around promotional culture, discourse, globalisation, democracy and power Considers how public relations frames vital discussions of race, gender, class and ethics Brings theory to life with a range of case studies, including YouTube vlogging, the global fair trade movement and the 2016 EU referendum in the UK Both accessible and provocative, this is an invaluable resource for students and researchers exploring public relations theory, critical public relations, strategic communication and promotional culture.
Book Synopsis Public Relations and Communication Management by : Gary Malcolm Mersham
Download or read book Public Relations and Communication Management written by Gary Malcolm Mersham and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Public Relations and Communication Management is specifically tailored to our unique cultural, communication, and information environments. This book provides locally-relevant expertise and 'kiwi' case studies from authors who live, teach, and work in public relations in New Zealand. Up-to-date with current industry practice, the book includes the latest developments in social media, reputation management, government relations and communicating in cultural diversity. As a relatively small society, New Zealand can adapt and innovate quickly, and the public relations industry here has often been at the forefront of best practice, with practitioners moving rapidly to take up, apply, and test new concepts and technologies long before larger markets do. This text reflects this experience and is both culturally appropriate for New Zealand, and also shows the future of public relations as it could be for innovative practitioners working anywhere in the world. Written in plain language and illustrated throughout with real world examples, this text is comprehensive and explicit in its coverage of the skills and critical insights needed for public relations practice, and also challenges the reader to consider the wider social context within which public relations operates. It is a text that is long overdue for students, practitioners and everybody who is interested in Public Relations in Aotearoa/New Zealand ."--Publisher's website.

Book Synopsis The Right of Publicity by : Jennifer E. Rothman
Download or read book The Right of Publicity written by Jennifer E. Rothman and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2018-05-01 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who controls how one’s identity is used by others? This legal question, centuries old, demands greater scrutiny in the Internet age. Jennifer Rothman uses the right of publicity—a little-known law, often wielded by celebrities—to answer that question, not just for the famous but for everyone. In challenging the conventional story of the right of publicity’s emergence, development, and justifications, Rothman shows how it transformed people into intellectual property, leading to a bizarre world in which you can lose ownership of your own identity. This shift and the right’s subsequent expansion undermine individual liberty and privacy, restrict free speech, and suppress artistic works. The Right of Publicity traces the right’s origins back to the emergence of the right of privacy in the late 1800s. The central impetus for the adoption of privacy laws was to protect people from “wrongful publicity.” This privacy-based protection was not limited to anonymous private citizens but applied to famous actors, athletes, and politicians. Beginning in the 1950s, the right transformed into a fully transferable intellectual property right, generating a host of legal disputes, from control of dead celebrities like Prince, to the use of student athletes’ images by the NCAA, to lawsuits by users of Facebook and victims of revenge porn. The right of publicity has lost its way. Rothman proposes returning the right to its origins and in the process reclaiming privacy for a public world.
