Greek political leaders on TikTok
Through social media platforms (SMPs), politicians share professional, personal, and even private information in an effort to connect with both influential personalities and ordinary individuals. Specifically, politicians’ use of TikTok can be seen as a strategy to generate “visual flows” of professional, personal, and private moments aimed at crafting visual bonds with TikTok users. This research comparatively analyzes how the leaders of the thr…
Hate-Speech in Greece and Cyprus
(Online) hate speech appears as a growing problem in Greece and Cyprus attributed to prejudices toward specific groups, the evolution of online media, lack of awareness and of appropriate educational tools to recognize and counter it. Communication professionals and media practitioners produce hate speech content both intentionally, to gain visibility and unintentionally due to their inability to recognize it. This paper presents a study conducte…
Agenda Setting and Framing During the First Wave of Coronavirus Pandemic
Objectives. Drawing heavily on theories focusing on the ways media represent health issues, and more specifically pandemics, the current research seeks to scrutinize the information conveyed by the Greek media to the public regarding the coronavirus pandemic. It also explores the ways that agenda-setting and framing affect the representations of the coronavirus pandemic. These two (agenda setting and framing) are highly influential concerning the…

Through a series of case studies drawn from the UK, Europe, India and Latin America, it examines the dynamics and role of micro-acts of resistance, with attention to a range of themes including organizational issues, the construction of collective identity, strategies, tactics and participation, and …
Who Are We? Square Politics and the Collective Self-Understanding of the Indignados in Spain and Greece-Reflections and Legacies
As occupations of squares in Spain spread across Europe, the Spanish Indignados gave rise to a transnational movement of ordinary citizens united in their anger against the banks, corruption, the electoral system, the global financial system, and the press. In this article, we reflect upon the legacies of the Spanish and Greek Indignados and show how their collective self-understanding—that is, a sense of a “us”—is formed and articulated very dif…
Media events, speech events and propagandistic techniques of legitimation
The increased information need after the outburst of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has led to the enhanced role of public addresses and press conferences that can broadcast important information simultaneously to a large number of people through a number of different media outlets (TV, radio, internet). Thus, government leaders worldwide have opted for the frequent broadcast of public addresses, reviving the rationale of media events as a way to dissem…
Post-truth, propaganda and the transformation of the spiral of silence
In 2016, post-truth was named word of the year. Since then a handful of texts have sought to further describe and explore the notion, moving beyond the initial definition given by the Oxford Dictionary. This article rejects the term ‘post-truth’, in favour of propaganda, since post-truth tends to be utilized as an evaluative term of contemporary political public discourse, as articulated by specific politicians, predominantly through social media…

Media Ecology and the Politics of Dissent
The phenomenon of protests, currently on the rise in worldwide democracies, is made known to citizens mainly through representations in the media.
