Abstract
Introduction/Objective
Social media has become a driving force in the field of pathology in a variety of ways, including aiding in recruitment efforts for residents, fellows, and faculty ...members; promoting both individual practitioners and institutional programs; sparking discussion; creating and growing community; and sharing resources. Large teaching hospitals see an expansive number of cases, some of which are rare or have unusual features. The sharing of unique pathology cases through social media has become a robust online conversation, resulting in connections to pathologists worldwide through shared educational resources, and as examples to potential trainees and faculty of the wide variety of cases the institution sees.
Methods/Case Report
In 2017, under guidance of our department chair, we began posting one case per week to our website and newly created Twitter account. These posts featured recent, in-house cases contributed by faculty and trainees with slide images and de-identified case descriptions. This content began garnering a following as we shared an increasing number of more unusual cases. In 2018, our department added communications team who standardized the weekly cases and worked with resident leaders to organize and plan a schedule to collect cases from department members. The team posts these cases every Monday on the department website and on our Twitter account, alongside a poll for users to vote on their suspected diagnosis. Each Friday, the team posts the final answer with an educational explanation of the case.

Conclusion
Our weekly cases have become the most popular content shared across our department’s social media channels, garnering hundreds of votes on Twitter, and now Instagram story polls, every week. Building on its popularity, in 2022 we added a second case of the week, specific to cytopathology, shared each Wednesday. We archive the cases on our website, and they are being accessed as a learning tool.
Over the past few decades, various types of hate material have caused increasing concern. Today, the scope of hate is wider than ever, as easy and often-anonymous access to an enormous amount of ...online content has opened the Internet up to both use and abuse. By providing possibilities for inexpensive and instantaneous access without ties to geographic location or a user identification system, the Internet has permitted hate groups and individuals espousing hate to transmit their ideas to a worldwide audience. Online Hate and Harmful Content focuses on the role of potentially harmful online content, particularly among young people. This focus is explored through two approaches: firstly, the commonality of online hate through cross-national survey statistics. This includes a discussion of the various implications of online hate for young people in terms of, for example, subjective wellbeing, trust, self-image and social relationships. Secondly, the book examines theoretical frameworks from the fields of sociology, social psychology and criminology that are useful for understanding online behaviour and online victimisation. Limitations of past theory are assessed and complemented with a novel theoretical model linking past work to the online environment as it exists today. An important and timely volume in this ever-changing digital age, this book is suitable for graduates and undergraduates interested in the fields of Internet and new media studies, social psychology and criminology. The analyses and findings of the book are also particularly relevant to practitioners and policy-makers working in the areas of Internet regulation, crime prevention, child protection and social work/youth work.
Status systems bring social order to markets, but they are non-meritocratic arrangements that benefit those of a higher status and penalize those of a lower status. Paradoxically, these systems are ...also maintained by those who suffer the most from their inequalities. The literature tends to explain the persistence of these systems through macro-oriented or micro-oriented mechanisms. We propose an alternative path by investigating relational mechanisms that might explain the persistence of this paradox. In an haute cuisine market, we used the social network analysis perspective to identify relational mechanisms that maintain this collective system. The results revealed a three-role structure of symbolic deference/appreciation (diffuse, selective, and egocentric). To conclude, we highlight the social order as a continuous tension between normality and chaos in the relationships between roles and the procedural aspect of structuring market roles, which we call authorizing the representation of a market category. Keywords: markets, status, social order, social network analysis, mixed-method. Los sistemas de estatus traen orden social a los mercados, pero son arreglos no meritocraticos que benefician a los de mayor estatus y penalizan a los de menor estatus. Paradojicamente, estos sistemas tambien son mantenidos por quienes mas sufren sus desigualdades. La literatura tiende a explicar la persistencia de estos sistemas por mecanismos macro o micro orientados. Proponemos un camino alternativo al investigar los mecanismos relacionales que pueden explicar la persistencia de esta paradoja. Teniendo como objeto la jerarquia de estatus categorial en un mercado de alta gastronomia, utilizamos la perspectiva de analisis de redes sociales para identificar mecanismos relacionales que mantienen este sistema colectivo de produccion de desigualdades. Los resultados revelaron una estructura de deferencia/apreciacion simbolica de tres roles (difusa, selectiva y egocentrica). Para concluir, destacamos el orden social como una tension continua entre la normalidad y el caos en las relaciones entre roles y el aspecto procedimental de la estructuracion de roles de mercado, lo que llamamos: autorizacion de la representacion de la categoria de mercado. Palabras clave: mercados, estatus, orden social, analisis de redes sociales, metodo mixto. Sistemas de status trazem ordem social aos mercados, mas eles sao arranjos nao meritocraticos que, em essencia, privilegiam positivamente aqueles de mais alto status e penalizam desproporcionalmente aqueles de status inferior. Paradoxalmente, esses sistemas sao mantidos nao apenas por seus maiores beneficiados, mas tambem por aqueles que mais sofrem com suas desigualdades. A literatura tende a explicar a persistencia desses sistemas por mecanismos macro ou micro orientados. Propomos uma via alternativa e complementar ao investigar os mecanismos relacionais que possam explicar a persistencia desse paradoxo nas ordens de status. Tendo como objeto a hierarquia de status categorico de restaurantes em um mercado de alta gastronomia, empregamos a Perspectiva da Analise de Redes Sociais para identificar mecanismos relacionais (via modelagem em bloco) que atuam na manutencao desse sistema coletivo de producao de desigualdades. Os resultados da modelagem em bloco na rede de atribuicao de deferencias entre os produtores desse mercado revelaram uma estrutura de tres papeis de deferencia/ apreciacao simbolica (difusa, seletiva e egocentrada). Como conclusao, destacamos a ordem social como uma continua tensao entre normalidade e caos nas relacoes entre papeis e o aspecto processual da estruturacao de papeis dos mercados, o qual denominamos autorizacao da representacao da categoria de mercado. Palavras-chave: mercados, status, ordem social, analise de redes sociais, metodo misto.
Stories are shared by millions of people online every day. They post and re-post interactions as they re-tell and respond to large-scale mediated events. These stories are important as they can bring ...people together, or polarise them in opposing groups. Narratives Online explores this new genre - the shared story - and uses carefully chosen case-studies to illustrate the complex processes of sharing as they are shaped by four international social media contexts: Wikipedia, Facebook, Twitter and YouTube. Building on discourse analytic research, Ruth Page develops a new framework - 'Mediated Narrative Analysis' - to address the large scale, multimodal nature of online narratives, helping researchers interpret the micro- and macro-level politics that are played out in computer-mediated communication.
Image by image and hashtag by hashtag, Instagram has redefined the
ways we relate to food. Emily J. H. Contois and Zenia Kish edit
contributions that explore the massively popular social media
...platform as a space for self-identification, influence,
transformation, and resistance. Artists and journalists join a wide
range of scholars to look at food's connection to Instagram from
vantage points as diverse as Hong Kong's camera-centric foodie
culture, the platform's long history with feminist eateries, and
the photography of Australia's livestock producers. What emerges is
a portrait of an arena where people do more than build identities
and influence. Users negotiate cultural, social, and economic
practices in a place that, for all its democratic potential,
reinforces entrenched dynamics of power.
Interdisciplinary in approach and transnational in scope,
Food Instagram offers general readers and experts alike
new perspectives on an important social media space and its impact
on a fundamental area of our lives.

Since the earliest development of states, groups of people escaped or were exiled. As capitalism developed, people tried to escape capitalist constraints connected with state control. This powerful ...book gives voice to three communities living at the edges of capitalism: Cossacks on the Don River in Russia; Zapatistas in Chiapas, Mexico; and prisoners in long-term isolation since the 1970s. Inspired by their experiences visiting Cossacks, living with the Zapatistas, and developing connections and relationships with prisoners and ex-prisoners, Andrej Grubacic and Denis O’Hearn present a uniquely sweeping, historical, and systematic study of exilic communities engaged in mutual aid. Following the tradition of Peter Kropotkin, Pierre Clastres, James Scott, Fernand Braudel and Imanuel Wallerstein, this study examines the full historical and contemporary possibilities for establishing self-governing communities at the edges of the capitalist world-system, considering the historical forces that often militate against those who try to practice mutual aid in the face of state power and capitalist incursion.

Women in Victorian England wore jewelry made from each other’s hair and wrote poems celebrating decades of friendship. They pored over magazines that described the dangerous pleasures of corporal ...punishment. A few had sexual relationships with each other, exchanged rings and vows, willed each other property, and lived together in long-term partnerships described as marriages. But, as Sharon Marcus shows, these women were not seen as gender outlaws. Their desires were fanned by consumer culture, and their friendships and unions were accepted and even encouraged by family, society, and church. Far from being sexless angels defined only by male desires, Victorian women openly enjoyed looking at and even dominating other women. Their friendships helped realize the ideal of companionate love between men and women celebrated by novels, and their unions influenced politicians and social thinkers to reform marriage law. Through a close examination of literature, memoirs, letters, domestic magazines, and political debates, Marcus reveals how relationships between women were a crucial component of femininity. Deeply researched, powerfully argued, and filled with original readings of familiar and surprising sources, Between Women overturns everything we thought we knew about Victorian women and the history of marriage and family life. It offers a new paradigm for theorizing gender and sexuality--not just in the Victorian period, but in our own.
