Networked Social Movements: Media & Mobilization
W2-5 (E15-363)
Will the Revolution be Instagrammed? When it happens, will we be able
to join it with a WeChat shake? This course provides an overview of
social
movement studies, with an emphasis on understanding the relationship
between social movements and the media. We'll explore multiple methods
of social movement analysis, cover recent innovations in social
movement theory, and research social movements we're interested in.

Lecture: T EVE (7-10 PM) Lab: M EVE (7-9 PM)
Examines how the key elements of today's films - composition,
continuity editing, lighting, narrative structure - were originally
created. Studies the history of cinema, from its origins in the late
19th century to the transition to sound in the late 1920s and early
1930s. Students view a range of films (both mainstream and
experimental) from all over the world, with a particular focus on US
productions. Emphasis on how color, sound, and other developments
paved the way for today's technological innovations.
