When Media Goes to War
In this fresh and provocative book, Anthony DiMaggio uses the war in Iraq and the United States confrontations with Iran as his touchstones to probe the sometimes fine line between news and propaganda. Using Antonio Gramsci’s concept of hegemony and drawing upon the seminal works of Noam Chomsky, Edward Herman, and Robert McChesney, DiMaggio combines a rigorousempirical analysis and clear, lucid prose to enlighten readers about issues essential to the struggle for a critical media and a functioning democracy. If, as DiMaggio shows, our newspapers and television news programs play a decisive role in determining what we think, and if, as he demonstrates convincingly, what the media give us is largely propaganda that supports an oppressive and undemocratic status quo, then it is incumbent upon us to make sure that they are responsive to the majority and not just the powerful and privileged few.
Cyber-Diplomacy
Potter (communications, U. of Ottawa), formerly a senior strategist in the Communications Bureau at the Canadian Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade (DFAIT), argues that advances in information technology will act as catalysts for forces of fragmentation and integration in the current international system. He presents seven contributions that explore the theoretical implications of the growth of information technologies and test their ideas on how the processes have manifested and the DFAIT. Also discussed are the ability of NGOs and social movements to use communication technologies to resist multilateral trade agreements, the impact of CNN and other global television phenomena, and the possibilities that governments can use information technologies to enhance their public diplomacy and their "soft power."
