Disruption and the Changing Concept of Leadership

Author(s): M S S El Namaki / Language(s): English Issue: 2/2017

Leadership is a catch all concept and the subject attracts intensive attention. Yet the concept, as it stands today, is obsolete. The prime parameters of people and tasks have lost content with people performance parameters going through palpable change and the fundamentals of the task seriously disrupted. Those developments are rendering concepts of leadership in their current professional and conceptual framework, blurred. Gamely and fashion prone colourful presentation of “leadership” are taking over. A serious search into the heart and soul of leadership and a formulation of building blocks is, therefore, needed. It should be serious and it should be conceptual and operationally cogent.

EVOLUTION OF DIGITAL VIDEO CONSUMPTION PATTERNS

Author(s): Martin Kuchta,Andrej Miklošík / Language(s): English Issue: 2/2017

In today’s markets, companies have greatly shifted their focus towards customers as the entities creating the demand for companies’ products and sources of the revenues. The consumers shape and influence the current market trends with their desires and preferences; this requires reassessing and reshaping the offers and communications from companies. Most successful offer adjustments are built on relevant research and formed by consumer insights, often based on patterns of content consumption. The main aim of this article is to identify digital video marketing trends by combining two essential pillars: the data management possibilities related to the digital environment and the evolution of media consumption habits of consumers. The authors examine secondary data which is precisely selected, collected and shaped according to the research design requirements from available Consumer Barometer Research provided and processed by Google. Identification of the six most significant digital video trends to shape digital marketing in the following years can be considered the core of the authors’ research. The results are centred on innovation progress and consumers’ consumption habits and aim to outline possible approaches to digital video production and delivery to target groups for several future years.

Jesteśmy tutaj i gdzie indziej. Magia sceniczna końca XIX wieku a pojawienie się (i zanikanie) wirtualnego obrazu jako korzenie kina

Author(s): Tom Gunning / Language(s): Polish Issue: 03/2013

This essay is not only written to widen the prehistory of cinema with the story of magical illusions. Too often, this type of genealogy was limited to enumerating consecutive technological innovations, suggesting a teleological advance leading to the invention of cinema. I rather hope that I draw the attention of researchers dealing with cinema on the longue durée of visual media and on the complex consonance of technology, spectatorship and visual imagery, so important at the end of the 19th century.

Fanfiction a funkcjonowanie literatury popularnej. Zarys perspektywy historycznej

Author(s): Aldona Kobus / Language(s): Polish Issue: 03/2013

An essay attempting to trace an early history of fan fiction, taking it not only as a production of fandom’s artefacts but also as a pop cultural strategy of creation, a very part of reception and function of popular literature. Studying examples of the early fandoms, such as Jane Austen’s and Arthur Conan Doyle’s novels, their fan-made sequels and other works based on their output and their position as a part of official publishing market, the text tries to undermine narrow understanding fan fiction as very young and subversive part of modern culture. It focuses also on specific situation of collective writing and grassroots distribution of so called “weird fiction” at the beginning of 20th century upon studying the case of H. P. Lovecraft’s novels. By comparison of status of fan‐written stories at the beginning of the century and in the late 60s, it queries about changes not only on the publishing market but also in our understanding of authorship and literary work, the function of intertextuality in popular culture and stigmatisation of fan‐written works.

Patrząc wstecz. Współczesny dokument wobec PRL-u

Author(s): Julia Banaszewska,Karol Jachymek / Language(s): Polish Issue: 01/2013

The article concentrates on how PRL images function in Polish documentary cinematography made after 1989. The authors bethink the presence of memories of communist experiences in modern documentaries, differentiating two basic (and characteristic for this period of Polish cinema) tendencies of presenting the images of socialist past: PRL understood as a battlefield and PRL as an object of peculiar nostalgia (or play).

Youtube.Doc. Dokument otwarty na wpisy amatorów.

Author(s): Weronika M. Lewandowska / Language(s): Polish Issue: 01/2013

YouTube can be perceived as a platform for change in many areas of culture, mainly as “an open document” which reveals performative potential for amateur activities. Receivers become senders, involved in different kinds of activities with video: creation of new content, publishing, digitization, comment and criticism. “Viral meme of performativity”, through You Tube, is changing documentary cinema, art, journalism. The aesthetics of post‐production predominates in online creation. On YouTube, we can find videos of various sources and aims. The most performative are streamed and “remixed/alternative version” footages. The performative video is one in which members of the audience take over the role of the author, co‐creating the original interpretative context, temporarily transforming themselves and the visual surroundings in the video act by changing the environment and contributing to other more permanent transformation, often undermining current norms and releasing energy in a creative activity. In this way, by presenting their activities in the network, amateurs shape the new culture; You Tube becomes an interactive video art gallery, a cinema that we all co‐create.

Food documentary jako oręż żywieniowych aktywistów. O metodach prezentacji światopoglądu w filmach Super Size Me oraz Food, Inc.

Author(s): Aleksandra Drzał-Sierocka / Language(s): Polish Issue: 01/2013

The issue of food in film has been analyzed in at least a dozen interesting publications. However, a majority of them pertains to feature movies. Although there is a large group of documentaries in which food plots are dominant and there is a popular term food documentary, often using in descriptions and reviews, this type of documentary is still waiting for detail, academic analysis. In the first part of my thesis I shortly describe characteristics of food documentary. Then I concentrate on the analysis of two of them: Super Size Me (2004) by Morgan Spurlock and Food, Inc. (2008) by Robert Kenner. They have some strong similarities, as they both represent socalled food activist documentary. But on the other hand, there are also few important differences.

Spory o przestrzeń. Kilka uwag o uczestnictwie w konflikcie

Author(s): Magda Szcześniak / Language(s): Polish Issue: 04/2012

The article deals with the social conflict, which developed around the infamous cross in front of the Presidential Palace in Warsaw. On April 15th 2010, eleven days after the Polish Presidential plane crashed in Smoleńsk, members of the Polish Scout Association placed an approx. ten feet tall wooden cross in front of the Presidential Palace. Initially a place of mourning, soon enough the site became became a space of a political and cultural conflict revolving around the issues of religion and its visibility in public spaces. The dispute about whether the cross should remain outside the Presidential Palace or whether it should be removed, engaged many different types of “publics” and undermined the popular belief in the possibility of a consensus. Drawing on Chantal Mouffe’s and Ernesto Laclau’s theory of radical democracy, the author analyzes the multiple interventions in the “representative” public space in front of the Presidential Palace – of the scouts, who installed the cross; of the so called “defenders of the cross,” who occupied the area around it, once the Presidential Office decided to remove it; of the counter‐demonstrators, who supported the decision to move the cross to a nearby church. Seen as examples of democracy in practice, these interventions also help us to deconstruct such seemingly neutral concepts as the “public sphere,” “public space,” and “common good.”

Pomiędzy tabu a pornografią. Graficzne reprezentacje śmierci w prasie

Author(s): Łukasz Kałużny / Language(s): Polish Issue: 04/2012

In much‐cited essay “The Pornography of Death”, Goeffrey Gorer argued that, since the twentieth century, death had exchanged positions with sex as the taboo subject. Nevertheless, its portrayals had not completely disappeared, but rather re‐appeared in the form of entertainment genre – viewed as pornographic because of its brutality, exploitation, and distance from emotions like grief. This seminal claims are updated with a discussion of the relation between taboo and pornography in the context of contemporary media images of actual death. Examining the photographic coverage of death in one of the leading national Polish newspaper (also, compared to one German and one Australian), the article follows such questions as: How confrontational is that coverage? How actually visible and present is death? Does the news media participate in or challenge modern death taboo? Is there still much to value in Gorer’s argument in this context?

Bo źle złożyłem tapczan u teściów. Przemoc domowa wobec mężczyzn

Author(s): Diana Karwowska / Language(s): Polish Issue: 04/2012

In 1977, appeared a new term, „battered husband syndrome”. Still little is said about wives/partners-oppressors. An additional problem is that ladies often apply the „invisible” psychological violence. Quite significantly failed to sensitize public opinion on the phenomenon of violence against women and children, but also perpetuated the image of man as the only possible offender. Husband/partner is usually the victim of jokes and the object of pity. My analysis is focused on newspaper articles and cabaret work. I wonder also on differences in the situation of victims of both sexes.

Miejsce folkloru w konstruowaniu współczesnego świata

Author(s): Jan Kajfosz / Language(s): Polish Issue: 03/2012

The paper answers the question, how folkloristic narrations participate in the social construction of reality. The notion of folklore relates here - in accordance with propositions of P.G. Bogatyrev and R. Jakobson – to poetic texts aimed at la langue. Such texts are conventional in the sense that their semantic structures are broadly reproduced inside one communicative society. Habitualisation based on more or less accurate repeatability of stereotypical representations,motives, action scenarios, rationalisations and motivations, is the source of relatively stabile world image. Folkloristic texts participate this way in constitution of experiences, beliefs and cognitive (noetic and behavioral) habitsof its agents. In the folkloristic creativity the collective images of the past which legitimize changing social institutions are very often unnoticed adjusted to such changes. Hence, narratives reproduced within a society which are considered by its members as memorates are very often fabulated. The author focuses especially on connotation which seems to be crucial for “tacit“ legitimizations of various phenomena. He follows diverse reciprocal legitimizations between representations in folkloristic narratives and representations spread by media.

Sieć objawień. O pewnym wymiarze e-folkloru religijnego

Author(s): Piotr Siuda / Language(s): Polish Issue: 03/2012

The article aims to characterise the phenomenon which is a manifestation of the Internet-based religious folklore – Internet accounts of revelations which have a clear spiritual base. Due to the connections of such e-visions with religion, in order to illustrate them it is key to describe the types of religious content occurring in cyberspace. Within it, four dimensions of spirituality may be distinguished, and the folklore depending on the occurrence of various e-revelations is to be assigned to two of them: the one concerning the account character of the Internet which, as a communication tool, allows the visionaries to reach a wide audience, and the one connected with the emergence of new religious phenomena on the Internet which are only quite lightly related to the big official religions such as Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, and other. Folklore is ‘people’s power’, therefore, in the case of its variety that consists in informing about one’s mystical experiences via the Internet, the superior role of any church authority figures is out of the question. The e-revelations are experienced by ‘amateurs’ and not by the representatives of the clergy or theologians, which locates the phenomenon in the sphere of the currently dominant selective (private) religiousness and the one which blurs all church hierarchies. The text presents numerous examples of e-places connected with visions, both the religious and the quasi-religious ones – they are shown, among other things, from the angle of the currently changing Marian revelations. For the author, an important exemplification of the discussed e-folklore are also all services on the apocalyptic prophecies – although they sometimes go beyond the strictly religious discourse (and they enter the pop-cultural one, for example), still the mystical experiences pertaining to the end of the world are always located within the sphere of spirituality. The end of the article offers several paths to be followed in further research on this part of e-folklore which are the religious visions.
