Abstract This paper focuses on analysing the specific attributes and applications of content marketing in social media. Through an engaging and targeted content strategy using the “personas”, this kind of marketing creates an engaged and motivated audience both in the commercial and non-commercial environment. The social networks are an appropriate environment and a tool for distributing and promoting content, including arts. The aim of our research was to use an online questionnaire to describe the behaviour of Generation Y (25-40 years) when using online content and identify their preferences. We also characterize the current state and future direction of content marketing in the Slovak conditions and the possibility of its use in the realm of arts.

The use of social media as an alternative medium to communicate marketing messages is increasingly massive. In the landscape of the contemporary marketing industry that is commonly called content marketing. But the use of this medium is not always use the right strategy. The strategy in this context is content strategy. The result, this process does not show the expected results. One of them is that there is no significant brand awareness among audiences. Even though the use of marketing content appropriately can produce a very obvious engagament brand. Therefore it is always interesting to observe the content strategy used by a brand, then see if the strategy used is appropriate to the intended goal or not. Likewise with the marketing activities that Pasar Papringan tries to do through the Instagram account @PasarPapringan. In this study the author will examine the marketing content of social media Instagram accounts Pasar Papringan. The research method used in this study is qualitative research. Meanwhile, the type of research used in this study is descriptive research that systematically describes facts or characteristics of certain populations in a factual and careful manner. From here the author will see whether the social media marketing content has been produced according to its purpose or not. The results of the study show that the content strategy chosen by the Pasar Papringan account is informative only, and this not relevant to the audience. The relevance of the content will be obtained if Pasar Papringan does a deeper profiling to the audience and explore themes that are relevant to the Pasar Papringan itself, like culinary, culture, dan peoples around Pasar Papringan. Pemanfaatan media sosial sebagai medium alternatif untuk mengomunikasikan pesan-pesan pemasaran semakin masif. Dalam lanskap industri marketing kontemporer ini yang lazim disebut konten marketing. Namun pemanfaatan medium ini tidak selalu dibarengi pemilihan strategi yang tepat. Strategi yang dimaksud adalah strategi konten. Akibatnya komunikasi yang dilakukan tidak memperlihatkan hasil yang memuaskan. Salah satunya adalah tidak terlihatnya brand engagament secara signifikan. Padahal pemanfaatan konten marketing secara tepat dapat menghasilkan brand engagament yang sangat kentara. Oleh sebab itu selalu menarik untuk mengamati strategi konten yang digunakan oleh sebuah brand, lalu melihat apakah startegi yang digunakan telah sesuai atau tepat denga tujuan yang diharapkan. Begitu juga dengan aktivitas marketing yang dicoba dilakukan oleh Pasar Papringan melalui akun Instagram @PasarPapringan. Dalam penelitian ini penulis akan meneliti konten marketing media sosial akun Instagram Pasar Papringan. Metode penelitian yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah penelitian kualitatif. Sedangkan, jenis penelitian yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah penelitian yang sifatnya deskriptif yang menggambarkan secara sistematis fakta atau karakteristik populasi tertentu secara faktual dan cermat. Dari sini penulis akan melihat apakah konten marketing media sosial tersebut telah diproduksi sesuai tujuannya atau belum. Hasil penelitian memperlihatkan strategi konten yang dipilih oleh akun Pasar Papringan masih bersifat informatif, dan belum relevan dengan audiens. Relevansi konten akan diperoleh jika Pasar Papringan dapat melihat lebih dalam profil audiens dan mengeksplorasi tema-tema yang relevan dengan Pasar Papringan itu sendiri, seperti kuliner, kebudayaan, orang-orang yang ada di seputar Pasar Papringan.

The use of social media had created a group of ordinary people who actively share their life and experiences on the social media platform. When this group of people received more and more “likes” from the audiences, they are being named as Internet celebrities. Internet celebrities who are having many followers had created the opportunity for the businesspeople to engage them in promoting and selling the products. However, despite the growth of social media and the use of social media by businesspeople, there are not many studies on internet celebrities that affecting the purchase intention among the customers in Malaysia. Hence, the problem statement of this study is to investigate the characteristic affecting internet celebrities that will affect the purchase intention of the consumers. The research had been done by collecting feedback from 200 respondents from Generation Y. An online questionnaire with 5-Likert rating scales is used to collect the data. Convenient sampling techniques were used to collect the data. The result of the study indicated that source credibility and video characteristic are the most important factors in influencing purchase intention, however, physical attractiveness and interactivity are not going to influence purchase intention. This gives an insightful thought to marketers to request internet celebrities to produce more quality videos to attract viewer attention. In terms of source credibility, marketers need to find Internet celebrities who have a more credible image to sell the company products. The justifications for the rejected hypotheses were discussed in detail in the study. The research findings of this study give marketers and academics insightful thoughts on how Internet celebrities can influence the purchase intention of Generation Y today.

As the community of Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) scholars has flourished across Canada and around the world, there has been a growing sense among humanists that SoTL work has been dominated by the epistemologies, philosophies, and research methods of the social sciences. This is a view that has been supported by SoTL journal editors and resources dedicated to introducing faculty to SoTL. To quote Nancy Chick (2012) in a recent book on the current state of SoTL in the disciplines, “while many well-known SoTL leaders come from humanities backgrounds …, the on-the-ground work largely marginalizes the practices of their disciplines” (p. 15). The question then follows: “How does the apparent under-representation of (arts and) humanities-based disciplines affect expectations for SoTL, from norms for research design and methodology to the genre and style of its products?” (McKinney & Chick, 2010, p. 10). This paper, which frames the special issue looking at “SoTL through the lenses of the Arts and Humanities,” explores the difficulties with, and opportunities provided by, creating an inclusive teaching commons where the scholarly traditions of the arts and humanities are recognized for the value they bring to the SoTL research imaginary. Alors que la communauté des universitaires qui oeuvrent dans le domaine de l’avancement des connaissances en enseignement et en apprentissage (ACEA) s’est épanouie à travers le Canada et dans le monde, on constate l’éclosion d’un sentiment, parmi les humanistes, que le travail de l’ACEA a été dominé par les épistémologies, les philosophies et les méthodes de recherche des sciences sociales. C’est une opinion qui a été appuyée par les rédacteurs de revues sur l’ACEA et par les ressources consacrées à l’introduction des enseignants à l’ACEA. Pour citer Nancy Chick (2012) dans un livre récemment publié sur l’état actuel de l’ACEA dans diverses disciplines, « alors que de nombreux leaders éminents en matière d’ACEA proviennent des sciences humaines ..., le travail sur le terrain marginalise grandement les pratiques de leurs disciplines » (p. 15). Ce qui nous mène à la question suivante : « Comment l’apparente sous-représentation des disciplines du domaine des (arts et des) sciences humaines affecte-t-elle les attentes pour l’ACEA, allant des normes de recherche et de méthodologie au genre et au style de ses produits? » (McKinney & Chick, 2010, p. 10). Cet article, qui encadre le numéro spécial consacré à « L’ACEA à travers le prisme des arts et des sciences humaines », explore les difficultés qui existent à créer une commune d’enseignement inclusive ainsi que les opportunités créées par cette commune, où les traditions de recherche en arts et en sciences humaines sont reconnues pour la valeur qu’elles apportent à l’imaginaire de recherche de l’ACEA.

At present, the problem of establishing disability is a point at issue in Russia. Despite the fact that medical criteria for disability are being developed very actively, high-quality methods for assessing social hallmarks are still lacking. Since disability is a phenomenon inherent in any society, each state forms a social and economic policy for people with disabilities in accordance with its level of development, priorities and opportunities. We have proposed a three-stage model, which includes a system for the consistent solution of the main tasks aimed at studying the causes and consequences of the problems encountered today in the social protection of citizens with health problems. The article shows why the existing approaches to the determination of disability and rehabilitation programs do not correspond to the current state of Russian society and why a decrease in the rate of persons recognized as disabled for the first time does not indicate an improvement in the health of the population. The authors proposed a number of measures with a view to correcting the situation according to the results of the study.

Background: image forensics deal with the problem of authentication of pictures or their origins. There are two types of forensics techniques namely active and passive. Passive forgery is also known as blind forensics technique. In passive forgery, copy-move (cloning) image forensics is most common forgery technique. In this approach, an object or region of a picture is copied and positioned somewhere else in the same image. Active method used watermarking to solve picture genuineness problem. It has limitations like human involvement or particularly equipped cameras. To overwhelm these limitations, numerous passive authentication approaches have been developed. Moreover, both approaches do not require any prior information about the picture. Objective: The prime objective of this survey is to provide an inclusive summary as well as recent advancement, challenges and future direction in image forensics. In Today’s digital era the digital pictures and videos are having great impact on our life as well as society, as they became the important source of information. Though earlier it was very difficult to doctor the picture, nowadays digital pictures can be doctored easily with the help of editing tools and internet. These practices make pictures as well as videos genuineness deceptive. Conclusion: This paper presents the current state-of- the-art of passive (cloning) image forensics techniques, challenges and future direction of this research domain. Further, the major open issues in developing a robust cloning image forensics detector with their performance are discussed. Lastly, the available benchmark datasets are also discussed

Chapter 1 takes a cue from recent anthropologists who have stressed the influence of Mauss’s socialism on his sociological work. Returning to Mauss’s The Gift, the chapter argues that what links his essay to the experimental writing of his literary contemporaries is not their shared fascination with the primitive, as other critics have suggested, but rather their shared investment in reimagining social possibilities within market society. Mauss was, as his biographer notes, an “Anglophile.” Shedding light on his admiration of British socialism and especially the work of Beatrice and Sidney Webb—friends of Virginia and Leonard Woolf—as well as competing usages of the language of “gifts” in the social sciences and the arts, the chapter ultimately provides a new material and conceptual framework for understanding the intersection of largely French gift theory and Anglo-American modernist writing.

Many evolutionary theorists have enthusiastically embraced human nature, but large numbers of evolutionists have also rejected it. It is also important to recognize the nuanced views on human nature that come from the side of the social sciences. This introduction provides an overview of the current state of the human nature debate, from the anti-essentialist consensus to the possibility of a Gray’s Anatomy of human psychology. Three potential functions for the notion of species nature are identified. The first is diagnostic, assigning an organism to the correct species. The second is species-comparative, allowing us to compare and contrast different species. The third function is contrastive, establishing human nature as a foil for human culture. The Introduction concludes with a brief synopsis of each chapter.

The Conclusion briefly examines the current state of the New York City Ballet under the auspices of industrial billionaire David H. Koch at Lincoln Center. In so doing, it to introduces a series of questions, warranting still more exploration, about the rapid and profound evolution of the structure, funding, and role of the arts in America through the course of the twentieth century. It revisits the historiographical problem that drives Making Ballet American: the narrative that George Balanchine was the sole creative genius who finally created an “American” ballet. In contrast to that hagiography, the Conclusion reiterates the book’s major contribution: illuminating the historical construction of our received idea of American neoclassical ballet within a specific set of social, political, and cultural circumstances. The Conclusion stresses that the history of American neoclassicism must be seen as a complex narrative involving several authors and discourses and crossing national and disciplinary borders: a history in which Balanchine was not the driving force, but rather the outcome.
