Digital Protest and Activism in Public Education : Reactions to Neoliberal Restructuring in Israel
Digital protest and activism in reaction to the consequences of neoliberalism in public education have become a global phenomenon in the second decade of the 21st century, emerging in countries such as the US, UK, France, and Israel.Teachers, parents, and other stakeholders in education are increasingly using digital media in their protest and activism efforts, yet these efforts have hardly been investigated to date.This book addresses this gap and employs an empirical exploration of the way in which Internet-based protest activity concerning public education issues is constructed, mobilised, and carried out.In doing so it provides key insights for the study of educational politics in the digital age.It shows how digital media is used by teachers and parents to create a bottom-up politics, spanning a common divide in the study of education politics between the macro (policymaking) and the micro (school) levels.The authors propose a novel taxonomy of uses of social media by digital activists, and argue that Internet-based social mobilisations develop different patterns of use of social media, based on the lived experience of their members and potential supporters.Finally, the book situates the rise of digital activism in education within the neoliberal restructuring of national education systems and the rise of neoliberal discourse of competition, budget discipline, and measurable achievements.The authors highlight three cases of Internet-based mobilisations in Israel, in which teachers and parents successfully affected public education policy. By providing a case-study driven analysis of digital protest and activism in education, this book will prove an invaluable text for researchers, leaders and practitioners in the field of education policy and comparative education.

Is it automatic that activism in any form becomes radical?
Activism in any form does not automatically become radical. Activism can take many different forms, from peaceful protests and advocacy to community organizing and education. While some activists may choose to take more radical approaches to achieve their goals, such as civil disobedience or direct action, many others work within the existing systems to create change. It is important to recognize and support the diversity of tactics and approaches within the activist community, as they all play a role in advancing social justice and positive change.

What type of transmission: automatic or semi-automatic?
The type of transmission depends on the specific needs and preferences of the driver. Automatic transmissions are convenient and easy to use, as they shift gears automatically without the need for manual input. On the other hand, semi-automatic transmissions offer the flexibility of manual control when desired, allowing the driver to manually shift gears while still having the option for automatic shifting. Ultimately, the choice between automatic and semi-automatic transmission comes down to personal driving style and preference.

Environmental Activism and the Media : The Politics of Protest
For more than 40 years politicians, activists, advocates, and individuals have been seeking ways to solve the problem of climate change.Governments and the United Nations have taken an economic path, while others seek solutions in the equality of climate justice.Taking the step from green consumer to the streets at climate summits and protest camps, as well as taking direct action recasts activists as everything from tree huggers, to domestic extremists, to ecoterrorists.Political policing and new legislation increasingly criminalizes environmental activism, supported by media reporting that recasts environmental activism as actions to be feared. Why this has happened and how activists have learned to circumvent the media’s recasting is the story of Environmental Activisim and the Media: The Politics of Protest.Through media movements to persuade the moveable middle, high court challenges, and gatekeeping, activists have found ways to challenge media and political discourse. This book identifies four key areas to tie together diverse sets of green governmentality, traditional media discourse, and activism: (1) environmental governance and green governmentality; (2) historical media discourse; (3) alternative communication infrastructures; and (4) local to the global.Using data from 50 interviews, archival research, and non-participatory observation from environmental activists from the UK, USA, and Australia, this text will show why protest is important in democratic political participation. From activists to slacktivists, Environmental Activism and the Media: The Politics of Protest is for those with an interest in cultural, social, and political studies; democratic processes; climate and social justice; governmentality; and/or the study of environmental politics, human geography, communication, and sustainability.

Performance Constellations : Networks of Protest and Activism in Latin America
Performance Constellations maps transnational protest movements and the dynamics of networked expressive behavior in the streets and online, as people struggle to be heard and effect long-term social justice.Its case studies explore collective political action in Latin America, including the Zapatistas in the mid-’90s, protests during the 2001 Argentine economic crisis, the 2011 Chilean student movement, the 2014–2015 mobilizations for the disappeared Ayotzinapa students, and the 2018 transnational reproductive rights movement.The book analyzes uses of space, time, media communication, and corporeality in protests such as virtual sit-ins, flash mobs, scarfazos, and hashtag campaigns, arguing that these protests not only challenge hegemonic power but are also socially transformative.While other studies have focused either on digital activism or on street protests, Performance Constellations shows that they are in fact integrally entwined.Zooming in on protest movements and art-activism in Mexico, Argentina, and Chile, and putting contemporary insurgent actions in dialogue with their historical precedents, the book demonstrates how, even in moments of extreme duress, social actors in Latin America have taken up public and virtual space to intervene politically and to contest dominant powers.

Which function is better: time automatic or aperture automatic?
The better function between time automatic and aperture automatic depends on the specific situation and the photographer's preferences. Time automatic, also known as shutter priority mode, allows the photographer to set the desired shutter speed while the camera automatically adjusts the aperture for proper exposure. Aperture automatic, or aperture priority mode, allows the photographer to set the desired aperture while the camera adjusts the shutter speed accordingly. Both functions are useful in different scenarios, with time automatic being preferred for situations where controlling motion is important, and aperture automatic being preferred for controlling depth of field. Ultimately, the best function to use will depend on the photographer's creative vision and the specific requirements of the photograph.

What is the difference between semi-automatic and automatic?
The main difference between semi-automatic and automatic is the level of human intervention required. In a semi-automatic system, the user needs to initiate each individual action, such as pulling the trigger of a gun or pressing a button to shift gears in a car. In an automatic system, once the initial action is initiated, the system takes over and continues to perform the subsequent actions without further input from the user. This can be seen in automatic firearms that continuously fire rounds as long as the trigger is held down, or in automatic transmission cars that shift gears without the driver needing to manually do so.
