How Journalism Uses History
How Journalism Uses History examines the various ways in which journalism uses history and historical sources in order to better understand the relationships between journalists, historians and journalism scholars. It highlights the ambiguous overlap between the role of the historian and that of the journalist, and underlines that there no longer seems to be reason to accept that one begins only where the other ends. With Journalism Studies as a developing subject area throughout the world, journalism history is becoming a particularly vivacious field. As such, How Journalism Uses History argues that, if historical study of this kind is to achieve its full potential, there needs to be a full...
Communicating the North
What makes a magazine in South Africa promote Scandinavian unity among its immigrant readers and why does a Swedish king endorse attempts to influence pan-Scandinavian opinion through a transnational media event in Sweden, Norway and Denmark? Can portraits of exotic Lapplanders in the British press, enthusiastic accounts of the welfare state in post-war travel literature and descriptions of the liberal Nordic woman as a metaphor for a freer society in Franco Spain really be bundled together under a joint label of 'Nordicness'? How is it that despite the variety of images of the Nordic region that are circulating, we still find this recurring idea of a shared Nordic identity? These are some o...

Diversity in Transcultural and International Communication
This volume contributes to diversity research within communication studies, taking into consideration the representation and implementation of social and cultural diversity in the public sphere, particularly in the mass media. In the first part, concepts of diversity are outlined with respect to a normative claim. In the second part, the focus lies on particular political decision-making and implementation of diversity measures in media regulation, public diplomacy, and science. The last part presents an analysis of the construction of diversity in internationally traded TV programs.

Journalismus und Öffentlichkeit
11 Was macht fur Pottker den Beruf Journalismus aus? Konstitutiv ist zunachst einmal, im Sinne der Berufsdefinition Max Webers, eine typische Spezifizierung, Spezialisierung und Kombination von Leistungen einer Person [ ], welche fur sie die Grundlage einer kontinuierlichen Versorgungs- und Erwerbschance ist (Weber 1972: 80). Mit anderen Worten: Journalisten sollen fur ihre spezielle Tatigkeit und die dafur erworbenen Kom- tenzen ein regelmassiges und zum Leben ausreichendes Einkommen erwarten (konnen). Daruber hinaus ist der Journalistenberuf mit einer ihm eigenen Aufgabe bewusst verm- det Pottker den systemtheoretisch konnotierten Funktionsbegriff verbunden: dem Herst- len von Offentlichke...
Algorithms of Power
The literature on "bridging the semantic gap" between mass and network mediated visuals and algorithms for their automatic identification and classification is growing and requires transdisciplinary contributions in Part I by eminent computer and social scientists. In Part II, scholars from the social sciences and journalism explore a few major landmarks of the vastly neglected and more challenging areas of soundscapes and multi-sensory experiences as well as censorship.
Journalists and Knowledge Practices
This multi-disciplinary anthology provides new perspectives on the journalist’s role in knowledge generation in the newspaper age—covering diverse topics from fake news to new technologies. Fake news, journalistic authority, and the introduction of cutting-edge technologies are often viewed as new topics in journalism. However, these issues were prevalent long before the twenty-first century. Connecting for the first time two burgeoning strands of research—a newly perceived history of knowledge and the study of journalism—Journalists and Knowledge Practices provides insights into the journalist’s role in the world of knowledge in the newspaper age (ca. 1860s to 1970s). This multi-d...
