| Description: |
With its topical focus and lucid style, this is a thoroughly international analysis of how terrorism and the war on terror is communicated through a variety of global media outlets. The editors and contributors are all very high profile in the field, and the content is both global and interdisciplinary. |
| Synopsis: |
"This is an excellent source which puts students in the heart of the contemporary discussion and encourages them to form opinions. It is a great resource for seminars as well as gateways to research."- Paul Matthews, University College Birmingham"An excellent text that covers not only how the media cover acts of terrorism but also how terror groups can manipulate the media."- David Lowe, Liverpool John Moores UniversityHave the media contributed to exacerbating the political, cultural and religious divides within Western societies and the world at large? How can media be deployed to enrich, not inhibit, dialogue? To what extent has the media, in all its forms, questioned, celebrated or simply accepted the unleashing of a 'war on terror'?Media and Terrorism: Global Perspectives brings together leading scholars to explore how the world's media have influenced, and in turn, been influenced by terrorism and the war on terror in the aftermath of 9/11. Accessible and user-friendly with lively and current case studies, it is an essential handbook on the dynamics of war and the media in a global context. |
