Book Synopsis Local Media Coverage of Environmental Conflict: the Klamath River Basin by : Jocelyn D. Robinson
Download or read book Local Media Coverage of Environmental Conflict: the Klamath River Basin written by Jocelyn D. Robinson and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a study of a content analysis of newspaper coverage from the Klamath River Basin conflict over water allocation in 2001 and 2002. The conflict boiled down to the question of who had right to the limited water in the basin - the farmers or the fish? The print media plays a role in policy agenda-setting, and communication literature suggests community newspapers tend to reflect the structure and norms of the cities and towns in which they are based. I analyzed two newspapers in the communities most involved in the conflict: the Herald and News in Klamath Falls, Ore., an agricultural community; and the Times-Standard in Eureka, Calif., which covers the fishing and tribal communities along the lower Klamath River. Did the Herald and News use more pro-agriculture frames, reflecting the community in which it is based? Did the Times-Standard use more pro-salmon frames? A regional paper, The Oregonian in Portland, Ore., was also examined to see if its physical distance from either community meant it used more neutral frames. The study examined articles written during the peak of the conflict, March-September 2001 and March-October 2002. Results suggest that there is a link between newspaper and frames, but it is most strongly seen in the Times-Standard, the lower river newspaper, which used almost twice as many pro-salmon frames as pro-agriculture frames as did the Herald and News or The Oregonian.
Book Synopsis Environmental Communication and Travel Journalism by : Lyn McGaurr
Download or read book Environmental Communication and Travel Journalism written by Lyn McGaurr and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-07-16 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Travel journalism about natural attractions is environmental communication at the cusp of consumerism and concern. Countries and regions that market forests, rivers and wildlife to international tourists drive place-of-origin brand recognition that benefits exporters in other sectors. Place-branding in such destinations is not just PR for environmentally sustainable development and consumption, but also a political enterprise. Environmental Communication and Travel Journalism considers tourism public relations as elite reputation management, and applies models of political conflict and source-media relations to the analysis of the ‘soft’ genre of travel journalism. The book seeks to understand how, in whose interests and against what odds discourses of cosmopolitanism and place-branding influence the way travel journalists represent vulnerable and contested environments. Informed by interviews with journalists and their sources, Environmental Communication and Travel Journalism identifies and theorises networks, cultures, discursive strategies and multiple loyalties that can assist or interrupt flows of environmental concern in the cosmopolitan public sphere. The book should be of interest to scholars of environmental communication, environmental politics, journalism, tourism, marketing and public relations.
Book Synopsis Making Sense of Intractable Environmental Conflicts by : Roy Lewicki
Download or read book Making Sense of Intractable Environmental Conflicts written by Roy Lewicki and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite a vast amount of effort and expertise devoted to them, many environmental conflicts have remained mired in controversy, stubbornly defying resolution. Why can some environmental problems be resolved in one locale but remain contentious in another, often carrying on for decades? What is it about certain issues or the people involved that make a conflict seemingly insoluble. Making Sense of Intractable Environmental Conflicts addresses those and related questions, examining what researchers and experts in the field characterize as "intractable" disputes—intense disputes that persist over long periods of time and cannot be resolved through consensus-building efforts or by administrative, legal, or political means. The approach focuses on the "frames" parties use to define and enact the dispute—the lenses through which they interpret and understand the conflict and critical conflict dynamics. Through analysis of interviews, news media coverage, meeting transcripts, and archival data, the contributors to the book: examine the concepts of frames, framing, and reframing, and the role that framing plays in conflicts outline the essential characteristics of intractability and its major causes offer case studies of eight intractable environmental conflicts present a rich body of original interview material from affected parties set forth recommendations for intervention that can help resolve disputes Within each case chapter, the authors describe the historical development and fundamental nature of the conflict and then analyze the case from the perspective of the key frames that are integral to understanding the dynamics of the dispute. They also offer cross-case analyses of related conflicts. Conflicts examined include those over natural resource use, toxic pollutants, water quality, and growth. Specific conflicts examined are the Quincy Library Group in California; Voyageurs National Park in Minnesota; Edwards Aquifer in Texas; Doan Brook in Cleveland, Ohio; the Antidegradation Environmental Advisory Group in Ohio; Drake Chemical in Pennsylvania; Alton Park/Piney Woods in Tennessee; and three examples of growth-related conflicts along the Front Range of Colorado's Rocky Mountains.
Book Synopsis Global Trade and Mediatised Environmental Protest by : Libby Lester
Download or read book Global Trade and Mediatised Environmental Protest written by Libby Lester and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-09-12 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As more governments, companies and individuals scan the globe for access to primary resources such as minerals and timber, food, power and water, and destinations for work, holidays and homes, pressures on places and communities grow. At the same time, global environmental risks – most notably, climate change – produce new networks and unfamiliar forms of politics. Communication media are integral to this change. This book explores how geographically diverse groups and individuals interact in and through media to influence the negotiations and decisions affecting often distant landscapes and communities. Drawing on extensive fieldwork in the Australia-Asia region, the book includes case studies on the environmental protests that follow the international flow of people and resources, including timber, fish, coal, water and tourism. It asks how ‘communities of concern’ are evoked, which transcend local places and national boundaries.
Book Synopsis Working Through Environmental Conflict by : Steven E. Daniels
Download or read book Working Through Environmental Conflict written by Steven E. Daniels and published by Praeger. This book was released on 2001-04-30 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Environmental and natural resource policy decision making is changing. Increasingly citizens and management agency personnel are seeking ways to do things differently; to participate meaningfully in the decision making process as parties work through policy conflicts. Doing things differently has come to mean doing things collaboratively. Daniels and Walker examine collaboration in environmental and natural resource policy decision making and conflict management. They address collaboration by featuring a method collaborative learning, that has been designed to address decision making and conflict management needs in complex and controversial policy settings. As they illustrate, collaborative learning differs in some significant ways from existing approaches for dealing with policy decision making, public participation, and conflict management. First, it is a hybrid of systems thinking and alternative dispute resolution concepts. Second, it is grounded explicitly in experiential, team-or organizational-and adult learning theories. It is a theory-based framework through which parties can make progress in the management of controversial environmental policy situations. They discuss both the theory and technique of collaborative learning and present cases where it has been applied. This is a professional and teaching tool for scholars, students, and researchers involved with environmental issues as well as dispute resolution.

Book Synopsis Media, Politics and Environment by : Detlef Briesen
Download or read book Media, Politics and Environment written by Detlef Briesen and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-07-15 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Environmental protection has not equally established itself as a permanent fixture in the political systems of all countries: to date, governments and entire societies have responded to environmental challenges in a variety of ways, and concrete environmental policy is still a highly national matter. Moreover, the perception of environmental problems varies considerably on a global scale. The reasons normally cited for these differences largely stem from the environmental policy debates themselves, e.g. poverty, ignorance, capital interests, etc. In contrast, this book shows that concrete environmental policy emerges from a complex interplay of mass media and political conflicts: first, the mass media provide the framework for national environmental policy through agenda-setting, framing and scandalization; second, the mass media thereby change values in the political and social discourse, e.g. by altering the perception of global commons and expanding the possibilities of interest articulation; and third, this can lead to political decision-making processes in which legal and other measures for environmental protection are enforced. The book systematically compares industrialized countries such as Germany and Japan with several rapidly emerging countries in South and Southeast Asia.

Case studies include: Anti-war protests and anti-globalization demonstrations Mediatized public crises centering on issues of 'race' and racism War journalism and peace journalism Risk society and the environment The politics of outrage and terror spectacle post 9/11 Identity politics and cultural recognition This is essential reading for Media Studies students and all those interested in understanding how, why, and with what impacts media report on diverse conflicts in the world today.
Book Synopsis Environmental News in South America by : Juliet Pinto
Download or read book Environmental News in South America written by Juliet Pinto and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-04-18 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Combining perspectives from media studies and political ecology, this book analyses socially constructed news regarding three environmental conflicts in South America. In recent decades, South American political administrations have tied national economies to neo-extractive development strategies, creating not only vulnerabilities to global commodity boom and bust pricing cycles, but also to conflict regarding environmental and cultural degradation from extraction activities. Environmental contestations among indigenous peoples, environmental and social NGOs, state actors, and extraction industries receive media attention, but how these disputes are covered has implications for understandings of media performance in democratizing nations. The authors examine three case studies of environmental contestation in a region that is simultaneously vulnerable to the effects of climate change, and yet has become once again dependent on commodity exportation to industrializing and industrialized nations for economic benefit and social development strategies.
Book Synopsis Conflict and the Environment by : N.P. Gleditsch
Download or read book Conflict and the Environment written by N.P. Gleditsch and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1997-09-30 with total page 626 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The end of the Cold War has opened up the arena for increased attention to other lines of conflict, both in Europe and globally. Environmental disruption - by no means a new phenomenon - is a chief beneficiary of the shift in priorities in the public debate. The Scientific and Environmental Affairs Division of NATO has moved with the times and has defined environmental security as one of the priority areas for its cooperation with Central and Eastern Europe and countries of the former Soviet Union. Research on these issues is now thus very much a collaborative effort across former lines of division in Europe. The Introduction by Sverre Stub sets the tone: Our Future - Common, or None at All. The book reveals the very real risks associated with environmental degradation, whether of the land, waters or the oceans, and charts out previous disputes and points to the very real danger of violent conflict associated with the drying up of natural resources. The book ends with a section on Responses, which seeks to provide answers to the threats discussed in the preceding sections.
