Deep-Rooted Images: Situating (Extra) Institutional Appropriations Of Deepfakes In The Us And India, Kailyn Slater, Akriti Rastogi Jan 2026

Deep-Rooted Images: Situating (Extra) Institutional Appropriations Of Deepfakes In The Us And India, Kailyn Slater, Akriti Rastogi

Fast Capitalism

The paper aims to map institutional and extra-institutional affordances and appropriations of deepfake images through an analytical framework that accounts for the socio-political contexts of the US and India. Our main argument involves the inevitable leakage of technologies outside institutions and its redressal through corporatized comebacks. Utilizing vernacular and global examples, we trace the perceived ownership and extended modalities of deepfake images and videos. While compositing (Manovich 2006) and habitual media (Chun 2016) predetermine our deep mediatized world (Hepp 2019), deepfakes, as a visual cultural technology newly popular within the political economy of media, offer a novel entry point into …

Neo-Imperialism And The Precarious Existence Of Vietnamese Factory Workers During The Covid-19 Lockdowns In 2021, Scott G. Mcnall, Ly Quoc Dang Jan 2026

Neo-Imperialism And The Precarious Existence Of Vietnamese Factory Workers During The Covid-19 Lockdowns In 2021, Scott G. Mcnall, Ly Quoc Dang

Fast Capitalism

Based on interviews with Vietnamese factory workers we discuss the impact Covid lockdowns had on their lives and illuminate how fragile their economic circumstances are in general. Both the government and major international corporations, such as Samsung and Nike, took extraordinary steps to keep workers on factory floors when covid infections started spreading in 2020. The government and businesses pressed laborers to work, sleep, and eat in their factories to stop the spread of the virus and to keep production lines moving. There was a determined push to get people vaccinated. It wasn't just the Vietnamese government that tried to …

Populism And Identity Politics In The U.S. Heartland, Ann M. Oberhauser, Daniel Krier Jan 2026

Populism And Identity Politics In The U.S. Heartland, Ann M. Oberhauser, Daniel Krier

Fast Capitalism

The rise of populism on the political right in the U.S. and Europe in recent decades reflects a significant shift in political culture. This populism has been associated with the rejection of mainstream politics and increased hostility toward immigrants, racialized minorities, and other marginalized groups who are seen as threats to economic security and hegemonic social identities. In the U.S. Heartland, several key states flipped from Democrat to Republican in 2016, sealing Trump's win and leading to widespread debates about populist political attitudes in this region. This analysis draws from focus group discussions with community leaders in rural and micropolitan …

The Manosphere As An Online Protection Racket: How The Red Pill Monetizes Male Need For Security In Modern Society, Eva Bujalka, Tim Rich, Stuart Bender

Fast Capitalism

To effectively manage, empathize with and respond to the implications and impact of the so-called ‘Manosphere,' this paper is centered on the premise that researchers require an understanding of the draw factors that lead individuals to engage, affiliate with, and contribute to the various groups that constitute this wider movement. This paper seeks to contribute to the growing body of knowledge around the Manosphere by exploring how thought leaders propagate symbiotic cycles of ontological security and insecurity through YouTube in a manner that resembles a protection racket. It argues that these constructed ontological security cycles provide a powerful impetus to …
