  • Exploring Hate Speech Perpetrators' Profiles on X: An Analysis of User Replies to Spanish Digital News Media Publications

    Open Access•Elias Said-Hung, Sergio Arce-García et al.•ARTICLE•Sociology Compass•2026

    Hate speech on the social media platform X has transformed the reply sections of digital news media accounts into contested arenas for democratic discourse. Although research on hate speech is extensive, the systematic characterization of the disseminators who target authoritative news profiles on social platforms remains underexplored. This study examines the propagation patterns of hate speech in reply threads on X for Spanish digital news medi…

    Open Access•Rubén Rivas-De-Roca, Patrícia Jerónimo et al.•ARTICLE•Comunicação e Sociedade•2026

    Local media are a cornerstone of communities, providing helpful information for everyday life, but the news production has undergone massive changes as a result of digital technologies. The transformation of the sector has even threatened the existence of local media.

  • Roma Customary Law and Gender Roles in the Practice of Portuguese Courts

    Open Access•Patrícia Jerónimo•ARTICLE•Oñati Socio-legal Series•2025

    While Roma law is not officially recognised as “proper law” and remains scarcely known, it is often relied on by Roma parties in litigation before Portuguese courts, most notably in cases involving child marriages and early school leaving by Roma girls. The Roma are Portugal’s most visible ethnic minority and occupy a singular position in the “multicultural jurisprudence” of Portuguese courts, as theirs are the “culture defences” most often broug…

    Open Access•Patrícia Jerónimo•ARTICLE•International Journal for the…•2025

    European legal standards on the right to interpretation and translation in criminal proceedings were significantly improved with the adoption of Directive 2010/64/EU, as evidenced by recent developments in the case law of the European Court of Human Rights and in the domestic legislation and case law of EU Member States. Portugal is a good illustration of these developments, while also providing nuance to the overall picture. After initially dism…

  • Introductory Note: Invisibilities in and of Journalism

    Open Access•Rita Araújo, Patrícia Jerónimo et al.•ARTICLE•Comunicação e Sociedade•2025

    Journalism is central to society and to the way “we see the world, ourselves and each other” (Wahl-Jorgensen & Hanitzsch, 2009, p. 3), besides being essential to decision-making processes and to the exercise of power. By setting the agenda, journalists influence public and private debate; they determine which issues are (more) important and which ones the public should be thinking about. Hence, journalism plays a key role in democratic societies.…

  • Diversidade religiosa e discriminação indireta em contexto laboral: O que nos diz a prática dos tribunais

    Open Access•Patrícia Jerónimo•ARTICLE•Configurações•2024

    A crescente visibilidade da religião no local de trabalho está na origem de não poucos focos de tensão e litígio na Europa e tem merecido alguma atenção mediática, sobretudo quando os tribunais são chamados a intervir. Na maioria dos casos, não se trata tanto de discriminação direta contra trabalhadores por causa da sua religião, mas de discriminação indireta resultante da aplicação a todos os trabalhadores de regras “neutras”, que tornam particu…

  • AI and Automation's Role in Iberian Fact-checking Agencies

    The improvement of automation and AI tools has prompted transformations in journalistic practices, including factchecking.

  • No Media, No Voters? The Relationship between News Deserts and Voting Abstention

    Open Access•Giovanni Ramos, Luísa Torres et al.•ARTICLE•Social Sciences•2023•References: 6

    Local journalism has suffered major transformations as traditional business models collapse and habits of news consumption change. A lack of funding and successive economic crises have brought about, on a global scale, the shutdown of many news outlets in smaller territories. These areas are becoming “news deserts”, a phenomenon that has been mapped in Brazil and Portugal. Territories without news could see an uptick in social problems such as di…

    A invisibilidade noticiosa a que estão a ser votadas várias cidades em diferentes países faz-nos questionar sobre as consequências para as respetivas comunidades. O desaparecimento de projetos jornalísticos de âmbito local leva a que o vazio deixado possa ser ocupado por outro tipo de realidades, menos comprometidas com o escrutínio dos poderes. A polarização cresce nestes lugares, a participação cívica diminui e isso terá como consequência o emp…
