Homilies and Horsemen: Revelation in the CW’s Supernatural
Authors: Valenzano Joseph M. , Engstrom Erika ,   Religious Communication Association
Published: June 2024

In recent years, religious-themed media about the end of the world offering interpretations of the Book of Revelation have become popular. On television, the CW’s Supernatural featured a storyline that involved a fight between Heaven and Hell, leading to an eventual Apocalypse. We examine how television’s depictions of religion in modern American culture serve as contemporary Christian homilies by exploring this program’s Apocalypse story arc, informed by Revelation 6:2-8. The depiction of a Christian-based story that never featured Christ nevertheless provided the audience with a message about life grounded in Biblical lessons, essentially serving the purpose of a homily that one might hear in a church on a Sunday morning. In addition to broadening our understanding of how homilies function in a mediated world, we discuss how this religious-themed television show has managed to stay on the air when so many others have failed.
Meanings of Work among Hindu Indian Women: Contextualizing Meaningfulness and Materialities of Work through Dharma and Karma
Authors: Shenoy-Packer Suchitra , Buzzanell Patrice M. ,   Religious Communication Association
Published: June 2024

Interviews were conducted with 77 Hindu Indian women across socioeconomic classes and occupations to examine the cultural-religious influences that underlie individuals’ understanding of their world of work. Participants indicated that work had meaning if it (a) served Indian society; (b) engaged them in paid employment; (c) enabled standing on one’s own feet; and (d) fulfilled their role-related kartavya (responsibilities, obligations). Findings highlight how the Hindu cultural-religious-spiritual-philosophical constructs of dharma and karma act as non-conscious ideologies in participants’ work values. Such culture-centered meanings of work and attendant societal Discourses (i.e., macro discourses) offer insight into the secularization of religious and philosophical aspects of everyday life in India.

Authors: Bhatia Prof Neha , Sisodia Dr Sonal
Published: June 2024

Conversational AI represents a technological advancement enabling AI systems, like Chatbots, to engage with people in a human-like manner. It facilitates seamless communication between humans and computers by bridging the gap between human language and computer language. Recent industry reports suggest that over 80% of businesses are contemplating integrating chatbots within the next five years. While many service providers already employ chatbots, the focus has primarily been on cost-saving and automation to replace some human service interactions. However, there remains a lack of understanding regarding the mechanisms and processes of value co-creation facilitated by AI. While scholars acknowledge that AI technology profoundly impacts human activities and resources, our current understanding of the interaction between humans and AI in value co-creation is insufficient. Therefore, this study aims to delve into the interface between AI and customers, analyzing the various factors pivotal in enhancing customer satisfaction

Intellectual Populism and Information Control: The Paradox of Wikipedia's Open-Source Censorship
Authors: Sharma Ram
Published: June 2024

Populism, a concept traditionally rooted in political science, is characterized by a division between 'the pure people' and 'the corrupt elite', and champions the representation of the general populace's will. This study introduces 'intellectual populism', an extension of this concept to the realm of knowledge and academia. It contrasts 'normal people', or laypersons, with 'elite academicians', highlighting the marginalization of broader societal perspectives by academic authorities. Intellectual populism advocates for the democratization of knowledge, positing that its dissemination should reflect a wider societal consensus, rather than being limited to academic circles. The case study of Wikipedia exemplifies intellectual populism. Promising the democratization of knowledge through its open-source, community-driven model, Wikipedia has been a subject of academic interest and debate. This study employs a qualitative analysis of Wikipedia articles, editorial policies, discussion pages, and edit histories to investigate its approach to knowledge dissemination. Drawing upon the works of Sunstein (2001) on echo chambers and Keen (2007) on the pitfalls of user-generated content, the research explores how Wikipedia, while ostensibly democratizing knowledge, paradoxically becomes a censor of differing viewpoints, contradicting its ideals of free and unbiased information sharing. The key findings of this research reveal the intricate dynamics of Wikipedia's editorial process and its implications. The lack of accountability and the prioritization of certain secondary sources over others play a pivotal role in perpetuating the dominance of majority perspectives. This phenomenon is analysed in the context of O'Neil's (2016) discussions on algorithmic biases and Benkler's (2006) exploration of networked information economies. The implications of these findings are multifaceted. Firstly, there is a decline in Wikipedia's credibility among students and within academic practices, as documented in studies by Mesgari et al. (2015) on the reliability of Wikipedia. Secondly, the platform risks disseminating potentially inaccurate and biassed content as authoritative to unsuspecting audiences. This raises concerns about the quality and reliability of information in the digital age, echoing the sentiments of Fogg's (2003) research on web credibility. While Wikipedia's innovative model was a groundbreaking step in democratising knowledge creation, an evaluation of its epistemology has revealed significant challenges. These challenges highlight the complexities and unintended consequences of intellectual populism in information dissemination, urging a reevaluation of open-source knowledge platforms in the context of quality, reliability, and bias

Should the European Union prioritize renewble energy or tackle energy poverty?
Authors: Sağlam Yağmur , Erdem Mehmet Samet
Published: June 2024

Energy poverty is a type of poverty that is not solely based on monetary factors. It has recently been highlighted in the literature alongside the acknowledgment of energy as a key component of sustainable economic growth. Many studies focus on replacing fossil fuels with renewable energy sources to address this issue. This study aims to analyze the impact of renewable energy consumption on energy poverty in the European Union from 1996 to 2020. The study incorporates a control variable, developed using Principal Component Analysis (PCA), to account for economic development. Second-generation panel data tests and the Common Correlated Effects Model are utilized to assess the short and long-term effects. The findings indicate that the control variable had no significant impact on energy poverty during the relevant period. Still, renewable energy consumption had both positive effects in developed countries and negative effects in transition economies. According to the results, energy poverty measures remain a key priority in most of Europe's energy policies. This highlights the significance of ensuring that the underprivileged section of society has access to affordable and sustainable energy sources.

Published: June 2024

تتناول هذه الدراسة تأثير البنية الاجتماعية التقليدية على النظام السياسي في شمال اليمن خلال الفترة من 1962 إلى 1978. توضح الدراسة كيف تتداخل العوامل القبلية والعشائرية والدينية في المجتمع اليمني، مما يؤدي إلى هيمنة السلطة التنفيذية على السلطات التشريعية والقضائية، ويعزز الفساد ويضعف المجتمع المدني. تناقش الدراسة الأسباب التي جعلت الجمهورية اليمنية في الشمال لم تستمر سوى ستة عشر عاماً بعد ثورة 26 سبتمبر 1962، ولماذا عادت الأسرة الحاكمة بعد هذه الفترة الوجيزة. تستعرض الدراسة كيفية تأثير البنية الاجتماعية التقليدية على تحديث وتطوير النظام السياسي، وتبحث في إمكانية تغيير هذه الديناميكيات الاجتماعية لتحرير النظام السياسي من قيودها التقليدية. تعتمد الدراسة على منهج تحليل الجماعات لفهم تأثير القوى الاجتماعية على القرارات السياسية، وتقدم مقترحات للتغلب على التحديات التي تواجه النظام السياسي اليمني في المستقبل. كما تبرز الدراسة دور البيئة الاقتصادية والموارد المحدودة في تعزيز التحديات التي يواجهها النظام السياسي، وكيفية تفاعل هذه العوامل مع البنى الاجتماعية التقليدية.
