{"title":"Rebuilding trust","authors":"Stephen Connor, Robert Catsburg, Brian Thorn, Ty Backer, Hilary Earl","doi":"10.1080/23753234.2020.1713020","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/23753234.2020.1713020","url":null,"abstract":"This MRP is a case study of the Algonquin Regiment’s capabilities to rapidly reconstruct their ranks during periods of extreme casualty loss, between late July and early October 1944. During this time, the Algonquin Regiment, like many other Canadian infantry battalions, experienced a continuous turnover of men due to high casualty rates resulting from the hard fighting in northwest Europe. Although the Algonquins suffered substantial losses from all ranks, they were able to reassemble their companies with new replacements in order to continue their offensive operations. This research argues that previous historical interpretations critical of both Canadian battle performance and the replacement system are challenged by the experiences of the Algonquin Regiment. The MRP calls into question long-standing notions concerning ‘primary group loyalty’ as the key to understanding both unit moral and battle performance. In doing so, this study reinforces the more recent interpretation centred on ‘swift trust’ as a more applicable lens through which to view the experiences, successes and failures of this single infantry battalion. The principal question that this MRP answers is how reinforcements in the Algonquin Regiment influenced overall battle performances during the late summer and early fall of 1944. Acknowledgments I would first like to begin by acknowledging the traditional Anishnaabeg territory that Nipissing University stands on today. Next, I would like to give my sincere appreciation and recognition to the faculty members of Nipissing University, especially those that I had the pleasure to learn from and get to know. I would like to thank you all for guiding me here with your much appreciated comments and recommendations. Also, I would like to acknowledge the support of my family, friends and peers. Their support and encouragement helped me get through the struggles of this past year. Furthermore, I would like to extend a kind thank you to my committee and examiners. Thank you Dr. Earl, Mr. Robert Catsburg, and Dr. Brian Thorn. I am very grateful of you all and I want to thank each of you for taking the time to review and assist me in the development of my research project. Finally, last but not least, I would like to give my greatest appreciation to my supervisor Dr. Stephen Connor. I want to thank you for everything that you have done for me over the past year. I will be forever grateful for all the help and advice that you have given me in order to make this project come to life. You have not only been a great supervisor, but also a great friend. This MRP is dedicated to all Second World War servicemen of the Algonquin Regiment, especially those replacements, who have not yet been fully recognized by Canadian military history, nor by our collective memories. Your sacrifices will never be forgotten.","PeriodicalId":36858,"journal":{"name":"Church, Communication and Culture","volume":"5 1","pages":"1 - 3"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/23753234.2020.1713020","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45634352","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using analysis tools belonging to communication theory and cognitive sciences, i.e. the concepts of frame and attitude, this article highlights two major points: firstly, the analysis reveals how the two newspapers aimed at establishing a specific relationship with their readers on this topic in the relevant period on the basis of specific interpretative models; secondly, each of these interpretative models relies on the representation of specific emotions which play a central role in the interpretation of reality according to a characteristic facet of the definition of post-truth.","PeriodicalId":36858,"journal":{"name":"Church, Communication and Culture","volume":"4 1","pages":"323 - 350"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/23753234.2019.1664918","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48140777","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An outstanding example for this narrative method is the Roman author most often thought of as one of the greatest historians in all antiquity: Tacitus. It can be shown that he in those of the books of his Annals which concern the reign of Nero makes use of rumours, insinuations and even fictional elements, especially of the ancient novel and novella (examples for this will be taken mostly from Ann. XIII–XVI), and particularly with regard to Nero’s relationship with his mother, Agrippina.","PeriodicalId":36858,"journal":{"name":"Church, Communication and Culture","volume":"4 1","pages":"255 - 265"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/23753234.2019.1664917","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43520602","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A brief description of the word post-truth is given, together with some etymological notes which can shed light on how truth is conceptualized in various languages. The meaning of post-truth and its denotation are then discussed, and it is shown that people involved in communication about post-truth as well as in post-truth messages do not rely on personal common ground, which requires a serious ontological commitment and genuine interpersonal relations. Without such a commitment no communication can be taken seriously and only ideological constructs with poor relevance for human life are left.","PeriodicalId":36858,"journal":{"name":"Church, Communication and Culture","volume":"4 1","pages":"287 - 304"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/23753234.2019.1665468","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44966412","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This trend offers new implications and innovative forms to conventional technologies (political, social) by transforming them into complex multicomponent systems; besides, this requires from the researchers revolutionary innovative analytical methods and tools, based on hybrid research approaches. Socio-political and linguistic methods in particular, are to be developed in order to analyze the current reality. Political culture transformation as affected by the digital technologies results in post-truth politics and fake news dissemination, which demands that the researchers study particular linguistic units (neologisms and hashtags produced by digital personalities), capable of modifying the information and news space which determines the socio-political agenda, and of inducing social action offline. Regarding new linguistic units from the point of view of political science and linguistics would allow for identifying the principle of the revolutionary new relationships between citizens, truth and social action. Many people using the online space as a primary source of political content reject critical thinking regarding the sources of this information and are affected by the “filter bubble,” which results in destructive practices of social engagement and manipulation of mass consciousness. Thus, there is a strong demand for modern mechanisms of political content management, since the causes, methods and mechanisms, as well as the participants of the process of information production and dissemination are very different from the ones that existed before the revolution in the information and communication technologies and the onset of Internet and social network technologies.","PeriodicalId":36858,"journal":{"name":"Church, Communication and Culture","volume":"4 1","pages":"305 - 322"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/23753234.2019.1664916","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47533496","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
