Abstract

Perkembangan media sosial berbasis internet membuat peran media sosial saat ini semakin meningkat secara signifikan, terutama di bidang politik. Bahkan, elektabilitas suatu partai dapat dipengaruhi oleh impresi publik yang dibentuk oleh media sosial. Dari fenomena tersebut, penulis secara khusus tertarik untuk mengkaji program dan strategi media sosial twitter dan facebook dari partai Gerindra. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis bagaimana penggunaan media sosial oleh partai Gerindra mempengaruhi citra dan dukungan publik terhadap partai tersebut. Penelitian ini sendiri menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan studi analisis wacana yang mengadaptasi logika media sosial dari Van Dijk-Poell yakni programabilitas, popularitas, konektivitas, dan datafikasi ke dalam komunikasi politik yang dilakukan Gerindra melalui media sosialnya. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Gerindra dengan baik telah mengimplementasikan logika media sosial dalam strategi pemasaran politiknya. Partai ini juga berhasil menciptakan ikatan yang kuat serta menarik perhatian publik, khususnya generasi muda, yang kemudian menjadi manifestasi dalam pemilu 2024 mendatang. Strategi ini menghasilkan tren positif bagi partai, hasil beberapa survei pada tahun 2021 menunjukkan bahwa kaum milenial dan Generasi Z lebih cenderung memilih Prabowo (Ketua Umum Gerindra) sebagai presiden. Seiring dengan dominasi media sosial, konsep logika media sosial menjadi suatu hal yang tidak dapat ditinggalkan bagi para aktor politik. Terakhir, dengan kemajuan teknologi, diperkirakan persaingan partai politik digital di media sosial akan semakin ketat pada tahun 2024.

... Rohmadi cited in Atmaja [15] describes social media as a space that facilitates interaction, communication, and the exchange of information. Similarly, Van Dijk cited in Gunawan [16] emphasizes how these platforms enable users to connect and engage, highlighting the growing importance of social media in modern life. Its convenience, accessibility, and instantaneous nature make it indispensable in daily activities, serving not only as a means of sharing and receiving updates but also as a powerful tool for communication, whether through messaging, voice calls, or video interactions. ...

Recently, social media has become a critical platform for accessing information worldwide. In Indonesia, the Indonesian Internet Service Providers Association (APJII) reports 221.56 million internet users in 2023, indicating widespread use for information gathering. However, the vast amount of accessible content makes it challenging for users to discern credible sources, often leading to the uncritical acceptance of information. This study examines the disaster-related behavior of the Sasak Muslim community on social media. The island of Lombok, which is predominantly inhabited by the Sasak people, experienced a devastating earthquake in 2018, a traumatic event that has since become a collective memory among the Sasak community. This collective memory has played a significant role in shaping the community’s behavior towards disaster preparedness. Given the Sasak people’s high engagement with social media, their online behavior presents an important area of study, particularly in relation to disaster information. This research employs a netnographic analysis approach, which involves the analysis of digital media to understand community behaviors and interactions. The findings of this study reveal that the Sasak Muslim community continues to uphold Islamic values as a means of filtering information received on social media, helping them determine the veracity of the information.

Pemilihan umum (pemilu) sebagai indikator kehidupan negara demokratis memungkinkan perubahan tatanan kehidupan berbangsa dan bernegara. Partisipasi pemilih dalam setiap pemilu hendaknya semakin meningkat, namun dalam realitanya di era reformasi partisipasi politik belum seperti yang diharapkan yaitu jauh lebih rendah dibandingkan pada masa pemerintahan Orde Baru. Tidak ada mobilisasi dan represi pada masyarakat dalam setiap perhelatan pemilu bisa menjadi salah satu penyebab pemilu berjalan kurang lancar. Mengingat pemilu demikian strategis untuk rotasi kekuasaan maka perlu upaya meningkatkan partisipasi pemilih pada setiap pemilu. Media sosial menjadi alternatif lembaga pemerintah untuk mensosialisasikan pemilu. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menemukan konten pesan pemilu dalam perspektif pemilih pemula serta sejauh mana pemilih pemula mengunjungi media sosial yang dimiliki KPU. Metode penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan teknik pengumpulan data Focus Group Discussion (FGD). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan konten pesan pemilu masih bersifat teknis sehingga pemilih pemula belum sepenuhnya tertarik mengunjungi media sosial milik KPU dari level pusat, provinsi dan daerah. Salah satu alasannya kurang memberikan informasi yang dibutuhkan pemilih pemula. Penelitian ini memberikan kontribusi bagi lembaga pemerintah agar mengemas konten pesan pemilu di media sosial KPU agar lebih menarik bagi pemilih pemula.

Dalam penelitian ini, dapat ditarik kesimpulan bahwa perilaku generasi milenial dan generasi Z yang semula interaktif sebelum menggunakan gawai, setelah menggunakan gawai proses komunikasinya menjadi pasif, sehingga tidak terjadi komunikasi efektif. In the digital era, there has been a change in the communication behavior of millennial generation and generation Z. These changes can be seen in everyday life, such as the lack of face-to-face interaction due to the presence of devices. This phenomenon also occurs in the millennial generation and generation Z in Kuranji District. This study aims to describe the communication behavior of millennials and generation Z in Kuranji District and to see the degradation of communication interfaces that occurs. The theories used are communication behavior, interpersonal communication, millennial generation communication, generation Z communication, new media, and social behaviorism. This study used Alfred Schutz's phenomenological approach with the constructivism paradigm. This study analyzes the communication behavior of the millennial generation and generation Z in the digital era in Kuranji District from ten informants. The results showed that four millennial generation and generation Z behaviors were formed in Kuranji District, namely communication behavior from active to passive caused by devices, reduced face-to-face communication caused by devices, not focusing on communication caused by devices, and online communication behavior caused by devices. In this study, it can be concluded that the behavior of the millennial generation and generation Z, which was originally interactive before using a device, after using a device the communication process becomes passive, so there is no effective communication.

Facebook facilitates more extensive dialogue between citizens and politicians. However, communicating via Facebook has also put pressure on political actors to administrate and moderate online debates in order to deal with uncivil comments. Based on a platform analysis of Facebook’s comment moderation functions and interviews with eight political parties’ communication advisors, this study explored how political actors conduct comment moderation. The findings indicate that these actors acknowledge being responsible for moderating debates. Since turning off the comment section is impossible in Facebook, moderators can choose to delete or hide comments, and these arbiters tend to use the latter in order to avoid an escalation of conflicts. The hide function makes comments invisible to participants in the comment section, but the hidden texts remain visible to those who made the comment and their network. Thus, the users are unaware of being moderated. In this paper, we argue that hiding problematic speech without the users’ awareness has serious ramifications for public debates, and we examine the ethical challenges associated with the lack of transparency in comment sections and the way moderation is conducted in Facebook.

p>Komunikasi massa merupakan sumber kajian potensial yang memiliki bidang bahasan yang cukup luas dan mendalam, dan juga didukung oleh teori yang lumayan banyak jumlahnya. Hal ini bisa dipahami sebab ilmu komunikasi yang kita kenal sekarang ini, merupakan proses evaluasi panjang dari ilmu komunikasi massa, yang awalnya hanya dikenal sebagai ilmu media massa atau ilmu pers yang juga merupakan hasil elaborasi dari ilmu publisistik (ilmu persurat-kabaran) yang berpusat di Jerman dan ilmu Jurnalistik yang berbasis di AS. Baru dinamakan ilmu komunikasi pasca Perang Dunia II oleh para ilmuan Barat, tujuan utamanya adalah untuk mencover semua bidang kajian dalam komunikasi yang semakin luas dan berkembang. Komunikasi massa sendiri kerap didefinisikan sebagai komunikasi melalui media massa (modern) pada awalnya hanya mencakup media cetak (surat kabar, majalah atau tabloid) dan media elektronik (TV dan radio), baru belakangan termasuk kajian multimedia yang juga sering disebut media dot com (internet). Pada era ini, kajian komunikasi massa berkembang menjadi semakin luas, selain mencakup tiga jenis media (media cetak, media elektronik, dan multimedia), peran dan proses komunikasi massa, juga efek media bagi masyarakat dan budaya, sehingga semakin banyak dijadikan sebagai objek studi. Dalam tinjauan komunikasi massa, paling tidak teori-teori yang muncul dapat dikelompokkan ke dalam 4 (empat) bidang, yaitu teori-teori awal komunikasi massa, pengaruh komunikasi massa terhadap individu, pengaruh komunikasi massa terhadap masyarakat dan budaya, dan audiens pengaruhnya terhadap komunikasi massa. Teori Agenda Setting misalnya, masih saja sangat relevan hingga saat ini sekalipun dengan catatan-catatan tertentu harus dibubuhkan di sana, seperti pada masyarakat dan budaya seperti apa, atau pada kondisi kapan, dan seterusnya.

Political communication on social media is the topic of this dissertation. The Internet and social media platforms have provided participants in the public sphere with new ways to connect, communicate and distribute information. This study examines how and why the three main actor groups within political communication – political actors, media actors and citizens – connect and interact on social media during the electoral process in Norway in 2013. This hybrid media landscape is characterized by political actors who can bypass media as gatekeepers and communicate directly with voters on their own Facebook pages. Simultaneously, social media platforms such as Facebook and Twitter are important traffic drivers for mass media, as well as convenient ways for political journalists to reach readers and political sources. Nevertheless, as I argue in this dissertation, the new mechanisms for attention, visibility and popularity on social media platforms is not sufficiently articulated or understood in the existing research literature. This dissertation suggests that the emerging theories of social media logic can help us understand how political communication occur in networked publics. Central in my arguments is a critical understanding of social media logic and affordances offered by communication technologies. Affordances are here understood as the action possibilities that communication technologies allow for, such as liking, sharing or measuring the response of an item. Based on the empirical findings from the articles in Part II, as well as the theoretical discussion in this cover chapter, I have developed the conceptual framework for political communication on social media, which allows us to analyse how political communication occurs on social media platforms. The conceptual framework consists of five high-level affordances: Publishing, visibility, networking, connectivity, and segmentation. I argue that these affordances are the building blocks of the social media logic in political communication. Lastly, this dissertation outlines the implications of the social media logic for the three key actor groups in this study. I argue that one of the main consequences of the social media logic is media actors’ weakening role as gatekeepers of information, potential turning media actors into curators of information.

Social media is characterized by a set of principles defined as ‘social media logic’ [van Dijck, J., & Poell, T. (2013). Understanding social media logic. Media and Communication, 1, 2–14. doi:10.12924/mac2013.01010002], derived from the theory of ‘media logic’ developed in the era of mass media [Altheide, D. L., & Snow, R. P. (1979). Media logic. London: Sage.]. This article explores how ‘social media logic’ impacts on two interconnected but yet distinct professions, journalism and politics, by analysing one of the key principles of social media logics, namely ‘connectivity’, an advanced strategy of algorithmically connecting users to content and other users in social media [van Dijck, J., & Poell, T. (2013). Understanding social media logic. Media and Communication, 1, 2–14. doi:10.12924/mac2013.01010002]. The operationalization of connectedness in this study is the Twitter hashtag, as it is the most common feature for users to connect and relate to within a larger networked discourse [Bruns, A., & Burgess, J. (2015). Twitter hashtags from ad hoc to calculated publics. In N. Rambukkana (Ed.), Hashtag publics: The power and politics of discursive networks (pp. 13–27). New York, NY: Peter Lang.]. The empirical material consists of tweets posted by 10 Norwegian politicians and 10 journalists, selected on their level of activity on Twitter. The tweets are analysed with the emphasis on the frequency and content of the hashtags, and the methodological design is comparative between the journalists and the politicians. A key finding is that there are significant differences between how journalists and politicians use hashtags, but that they both use mass media hashtags to reach outside their follower networks. Consequently, this demonstrates that journalists’ and politicians’ use of social media is closely connected to their professional norms, and that the ‘social media logic’ is still related to the ‘media logic’ of mainstream and broadcast media.

In recent years, social media are said to have an impact on the public discourse and communication in the society. In particular, social media are increasingly used in political context. More recently, microblogging services (e.g., Twitter) and social network sites (e.g., Facebook) are believed to have the potential for increasing political participation. While Twitter is an ideal platform for users to spread not only information in general but also political opinions publicly through their networks, political institutions (e.g., politicians, political parties, political foundations, etc.) have also begun to use Facebook pages or groups for the purpose of entering into direct dialogues with citizens and enabling political discussions. Previous studies have shown that from the perspective of political institutions, there is a need to continuously collect, monitor, analyze, summarize, and visualize politically relevant information from social media. These activities, which are subsumed under “social media analytics,” are considered difficult tasks due to a large numbers of different social media platforms and large amount as well as complexity of information and data. Systematic tracking and analysis approaches along with appropriate methods and techniques in political domain are still lacking. In this paper, we propose a framework for social media analytics in political context. More specifically, our framework summarizes different politically relevant analyses from the perspective of political institutions and according scientific methodologies that could be applied to analyze political communication in social media.

Political parties’ interaction strategy and practice on Facebook is the topic of this article. Political parties and individual politicians can use social media to bypass media and communicate directly with voters through websites and particularly social media platforms such as Facebook. But previous research has demonstrated that interaction on social media is challenging for political parties. This study examines the disparity between interaction strategy and online responsiveness and finds that political parties identify three clear disadvantages when communicating with voters online: online reputation risk, negative media attention, and limited resources. In addition, the authenticity requirement many parties adhere to is creating a “social media interaction deadlock,” which is increasing the disparity between the parties’ expressed strategy and online performance. This study compares major and minor political parties’ interaction strategy during the 2013 national election in Norway and combines interviews of political communication directors with an innovative method to collect Facebook interaction data.

In this article we propose a concept of network media logic in order to discuss how online social media platforms change political communication without resorting to technological determinism or normalization. We argue that social media platforms operate with a distinctly different logic from that of traditional mass media, though overlapping with it. This is leading to different ways of producing content, distributing information and using media. By discussing the differences between traditional mass media and social media platforms in terms of production, consumption and use, we carve out the central elements of network media logic – that is, the rules/format of communication on social media platforms – and some consequences for political communication.

Over the past decade, social media platforms have penetrated deeply into the mech­anics of everyday life, affecting people's informal interactions, as well as institutional structures and professional routines. Far from being neutral platforms for everyone, social media have changed the conditions and rules of social interaction. In this article, we examine the intricate dynamic between social media platforms, mass media, users, and social institutions by calling attention to social media logic—the norms, strategies, mechanisms, and economies—underpin­ning its dynamics. This logic will be considered in light of what has been identified as mass me­dia logic, which has helped spread the media's powerful discourse outside its institutional boundaries. Theorizing social media logic, we identify four grounding principles—programmabil­ity, popularity, connectivity, and datafication—and argue that these principles become increas­ingly entangled with mass media logic. The logic of social media, rooted in these grounding principles and strategies, is gradually invading all areas of public life. Besides print news and broadcasting, it also affects law and order, social activism, politics, and so forth. Therefore, its sustaining logic and widespread dissemination deserve to be scrutinized in detail in order to better understand its impact in various domains. Concentrating on the tactics and strategies at work in social media logic, we reassess the constellation of power relationships in which social practices unfold, raising questions such as: How does social media logic modify or enhance ex­isting mass media logic? And how is this new media logic exported beyond the boundaries of (social or mass) media proper? The underlying principles, tactics, and strategies may be relat­ively simple to identify, but it is much harder to map the complex connections between plat­forms that distribute this logic: users that employ them, technologies that drive them, economic structures that scaffold them, and institutional bodies that incorporate them.

One key concept in research on how the media influence political processes is mediatization, which denotes a long-term process through which the media have become increasingly independent from politics and through which political actors and institutions have become increasingly dependent on the media. While it is often claimed that politics has become increasingly mediatized, the process of mediatization has not yet been properly addressed in the literature. Against this background, and based on the literature on mediatization and strategic party behavior, the purpose of this article is to theoretically explore the processes through which political parties become mediatized, and to suggest a model of media adaptation by political parties.

Pandemi COVID-19 memaksa Universitas Nusa Cendana (Undana) memberhentikan pembelajaran tatap muka dan menggantinya dengan pembelajaran daring. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menyelidiki pelaksanaan komunikasi pendidikan melalui pengembangan media pembelajaran daring pada masa pandemi COVID-19 di Undana. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan studi kasus. Teknik pengumpulandata dilakukan dengan teknik wawancara mendalam bersama 48 orang, dengan rincian 11 dosen mewakili masing-masing fakultas dan 37 orang mewakili mahasiswa selanjutnya data yang terkumpul dianalisis menggunakan teknik analisis data model interaktif. Hasil penelitian menemukan bahwa media komunikasi pendidikan pada masa pandemi COVID-19 di Undana adalah aplikasi Google Meet, Zoom, Whatsapp, Telegram, Google Classroom karena lebih mudah dioperasikan dibanding e-learning Undana sebagai mediakomunikasi internal kampus. Penggunaan ragam aplikasi sebagai media pembelajaran di Undana menambah kerumitan proses belajar. Minimnya antusiasme mahasiswa, pemahaman dosen terhadap media pembelajaran serta belum meratanya akses jaringan internet di Provinsi NTT juga menjadi kendala tersendiri sehingga belum sejalan dengan pengimplementasian kurikulum “Merdeka Belajar Kampus Merdeka”. Penelitian inimemberikan kontribusi tentang komunikasi pendidikan melalui pengembangan media pembelajaran daring pada masa pandemi COVID-19 serta sebagai masukan bagi pembuat kebijakan di universitas terkait efektivitas pemanfaatan aplikasi e-learning sebagai sarana komunikasi pendidikan di Undana.

Most research on gender and digital communication centers on how women use digital media, how they participate online, or how they are treated in online forums and social media. This article, in contrast, approaches gender from a behind the screen perspective. How algorithms and platforms are created, designed, and maintained, the affordances they provide for users and how they govern the ways users communicate with each other, has a major impact on digital communication. However, it is mostly men who create these technologies. Our study approaches technologies as socio-cultural, departing from the concept of network media logic. Empirically, it is based on (1) the review of a diverse body of literature from the history of programming, professional sociology, and computer science and documents such as the diversity reports from tech giants, as well as on (2) 64 semi-structured expert interviews conducted with male and female programmers in seven countries over a time-period of four years. Results show that the gender gap continues to run deep. We report results in four dimensions: professional culture, pervasive stereotypes, lack of role models and typical career paths.

This article examines the role of social media in contemporary political communication, focusing on Barack Obama’s Facebook campaign in the run-up to the 2012 presidential election. Although there is a growing body of literature on online forms of participation, little research exists on the role of social buttons on Facebook (like, comment, and share) as tools of political voice. We use these native interactive features as indicators of how citizens engage with particular political messages. A content analysis of posts published on Obama’s official Facebook page over the two months leading up to Election Day was conducted, along with a detailed measurement of all user interactions for each post. Our analysis indicates that the Obama campaign used Facebook as a tool of top-down promotion, focusing on Obama’s personality and as a means of strategically guiding followers to act, rather than as a means of bottom-up empowerment or hybridized coproduction. However, we also found that followers engaged selectively with campaign messages and often interacted more with policy-oriented posts than with promotional ones.
