Abstract:

The rapid developments in new communication technologies have facilitated the popularization of digital games, which has translated into an exponential growth of the game industry in recent decades. The ubiquitous presence of digital games has resulted in an expansion of the applications of these games from mere entertainment purposes to a great variety of serious purposes. In this edited volume, we narrow the scope of attention by focusing on what game theorist Ian Bogost has called 'persuasive games', that is, gaming practices that combine the dissemination of information with attempts to engage players in particular attitudes and behaviors. This volume offers a multifaceted reflection on persuasive gaming, that is, on the process of these particular games being played by players. The purpose is to better understand when and how digital games can be used for persuasion by further exploring persuasive games and some other kinds of persuasive playful interaction as well. The book critically integrates what has been accomplished in separate research traditions to offer a multidisciplinary approach to understanding persuasive gaming that is closely linked to developments in the industry by including the exploration of relevant case studies.

Abstract:

Digital gaming, whether performed using a game console, cellular telephone, or desktop computer, is now a popular entertainment activity. While men still dominate among game developers and players, this disparity has been reduced as game designers shift their views and develop games that support women’s style of play. In particular, women desire to practice and perform the competitive styles they use when performing real-world intrasexual competition: self-promotion, competitor derogation and manipulation, target manipulation, and the building of social hierarchies to obtain allies or spread information needed to support these strategies. Women play games and compete, both among each other and against game challenges, if given the opportunity to do so in a meaningful and realistic manner where they can practice their preferred competitive skills. This chapter examines digital gaming with respect to women’s competitive strategies to identify how games can support these strategies and appeal to women.

Abstract:

Growing up with digital media is an ethical question. This volume examines current developments in the fields of digitalisation, education and the protection of minors in order to critically reflect upon a new set of issues in communication, media and information ethics. The importance of developing autonomy in children growing up in mediatised societies and of balancing autonomy with children´s need for protection (e.g. data protection or privacy) is central to this study. The book addresses the ethical dimensions of a mediatised childhood by exploring issues in surveillance and care, gaming and entertainment as well as reality and virtuality, giving weight to the consequences these practices and issues have for society, politics and education. With contributions by Linda Breitlauch, Eike Buhr, Detlef Endeward, Bernhard Debatin, Alexander Filipovic, Rüdiger Funiok, Petra Grimm, Thilo Hagendorff/Jutta Hagendorff, Florian Heusinger von Waldegge, Dietmar Kammerer, Nina Köberer, Larissa Krainer, Kerstin Liesem, Patrick Maisenhölder, Gudrun Marci-Boehncke, Dominik Merli, Carsten Ochs, Claudia Paganini, Marlis Prinzing, Matthias Rath, Christoph Schickhardt, Christian Schlöndorf, Ingrid Stapf, André Weßel

Abstract:

This concluding chapter reflects on the continued trend of widespread gambling in the U.S. entertainment industry—which, among other factors, has contributed to the frequency of betting on college sports to this day—and the consequences thereof. Gambling has since become the norm, and with college sports programs being especially profitable ventures, game rigging as well as the exploitation of the players will continue to remain the norm rather than the exception, as the chapter explores more recent trends in sports betting. To conclude, the chapter discusses the possibility of further legislative regulation on sports betting, but warns for the consequences should such laws be enacted.

Abstract:

A central entertainment district also became the focus of debates about emotions in Cairo. Following the British occupation of Egypt in 1882, newspapers and magazines began to argue that activities in the neighborhood of Azbakiyya, such as alcohol consumption, prostitution, and gambling, destroyed the rationality of Cairo’s middle-class men. According to these accounts, men were at risk of wavering between extreme emotions of anger and love in the entertainment district. This loss of control over their emotions would ultimately lead to dire consequences for entire families and the Egyptian nation at large. The chapter shows that these portrayals were inseparable from the shifting power structures in Cairo. Since many customers, barmaids and pimps came from Western European countries, Azbakiyya was framed as a symptom of the “foreign” domination of Egypt.

Abstract:

This chapter recounts the 1961 basketball scandal, arguing that Jack Molinas was not the only one to blame for the scandal. It remarks on the similarities between both scandals, arguing that the scandal would have occurred without Molinas' involvement. Corruption had become more rather than less pervasive after the 1951 scandal, as many major colleges continued with their self-imposed mandate to provide professionalized entertainment for the American public. As in the 1951 scandal, coaches and college authorities ran professionalized sports operations, recruiting players not qualified to be students, paying them to play, and ignoring obvious signs of rigging, all to win championships and national rankings and in the process earn money for themselves, their institutions, and their boosters. In this environment of hypocrisy and corruption and widespread popularity of gambling and organized crime, the chapter thus argues that a scandal was inevitable.
