Consumers’ willingness to pay for green initiatives of the hotel industry
Environmental website production
The World Wide Web has excited much speculation, and a growing body of scholarship, about its potential to advance the communicative power of social movement organizations. As a medium that enables online publishing, and selected features and functions, websites could be important in this regard. Yet, studies of social movement websites have documented these groups’ modest uses of the medium, and few scholars have studied the organizational facto…
Social movement web use in theory and practice

The relationship between these two endeavors is symbiotic. Activism d…
Radical uses of public access television
Until recently, the centralization of media technologies in commercial systems has made it difficult for marginalized political groups to develop large‐scale media production projects. Although cable television was once heralded as a technology that would rejuvenate diversity and democratic communication in the electronic media, activists have been limited to public access cable projects. Created by government mandate and by cable‐operator lobbyi…
