Images of the EnemyThe 80s were polarised
times, during which the implicit political divide embodied by the cold war was firmed up by arguably the most ideologically driven government Britain has ever seen.(Guardian)

Predictable outcomes (social stability) based on vertically hierarchical control of information

Chaos/competitive paradigm
Elites compete with non-elites for access to and impact on the globalised public sphere, which constantly evolves, changing
with each iteration of the cycle
The evolution of the system
cannot be forecast with
certainty

GM Crops“Parts of the media
have conducted such an extraordinary campaign of distortion, it is hard to know where to begin. Anyone who has dared to raise even the smallest hand in protest is accused of being either corrupt or a Dr Strangelove”(Tony Blair, 1999)

Autism in the news
MMR
Health scare or cause for concern?

Coverage clearly shaped the way many people understood the issue, and appears to have led to a loss of confidence in the vaccine in Britain

Chaos in the Middle East The instantaneous nature of
how social media communicate self-broadcast ideas, unlimited by publication deadlines and broadcast news slots, explains in part the speed at which these revolutions have unravelled, their almost viral spread across a region. It explains too, the often loose and non-hierarchical organisation of the protest movements unconsciously modelled on the networks of the web.(Peter Beaumont, February 25 2011)
