Book Synopsis Politics, Propaganda and the Press by : Louise A. Clare
Download or read book Politics, Propaganda and the Press written by Louise A. Clare and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-03-20 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines British and Argentine media output in the prelude to and during the 1982 Falklands/Malvinas Conflict and acknowledges the aftermath and legacies of the media response. Yards of ink have been spilt, reinforcing the view that the Argentine Junta’s action on 2nd April 1982 was a ‘diversion’ from domestic tensions. This view, coupled with the paucity of any thorough, in-depth analysis afforded to Argentine media aspects of the War - particularly the press - necessitates this volume’s copious international study of the Conflict. Uniquely, US media output is also analysed alongside Britain’s and Argentina’s, all drawing upon Cold War historiography and media theory, with a view to contesting the traditional consensus that media outlets merely reflected government opinion during the Crisis, providing almost no effective dissent. Asserting media and culture influenced the climatic decision-making process of key actors in the Conflict, this book’s triangulated approach explores the integral, influencing role played therein by culture, and how it was not only instrumental to government actions, but also to Argentine, British and US media output. This book’s revisionist approach makes it a reference point for any nascent research on Falklands/Malvinas media reporting and Argentine and international approaches—particularly the US—to the 1982 Conflict.
Download or read book 30 Years After written by Carine Berbéri and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-16 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thirty years after the Argentinian invasion of the Falkland Islands, the war remains a source of continued debate and analysis for politicians, historians and military strategists. Not only did the conflict provide a fascinating example of modern expeditionary warfare, but it also brought to the fore numerous questions regarding international law, sovereignty, the inheritance of colonialism, the influence of history on national policy and the use of military force for domestic political uses. As the essays in this collection show, the numerous facets of the Falklands War remain current today and have ramifications far beyond the South Atlantic. Covering issues ranging from military strategy to Anglo-American relations, international reactions and international law to media coverage, the volume provides an important overview of some of the complex issues involved, and offers a better understanding of this conflict and of the tensions which still exist today between London and Buenos Aires. Of interest to scholars of history, politics, international relations and defence studies, the volume provides a timely and forthright examination of a short but bloody episode of a kind that is likely to be seen with increasing frequency, as nations lay competing claims to disputed territories around the globe.

Book Synopsis Media Stories in the Falklands-Malvinas Conflict by : Lucrecia Escudero
Download or read book Media Stories in the Falklands-Malvinas Conflict written by Lucrecia Escudero and published by Critical, Cultural and Communications Press. This book was released on 2014 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Here is yet another effect of fog, this time provided directly by readers in order to sustain the necessary suspense of the story. We seem to be halfway between Flatland and Antonioni's Blow Up. Argentine newspapers were obliged to find another narrative genre, shifting from war movies to spy novels. Who invented the Yellow Submarine? The British secret services, in order to lower the spirits of Argentines? The Argentine military command, in order to justify its tough stance? The British press? The Argentine press? Who benefited from the rumour? The Yellow Submarine was posited by the media, and as soon as it was posited everyone took it for granted. What happens when in a fictional text the author posits, as an element of the actual world (which is the background of the fictional one) something that does not obtain in the actual world?" Umberto Eco, from the Foreword
Book Synopsis Remembering the Falklands War by : Sarah Maltby
Download or read book Remembering the Falklands War written by Sarah Maltby and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-06-23 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers an empirically informed understanding of how identity and agency become wholly embedded within practices of media-remembering. It draws upon data collected from the British military, the BBC and Falkland Islanders during the 30th Anniversary of the Falklands war to uniquely offer multiple perspectives on a single ‘remembering’ phenomenon. The study offers an analysis of the convergence, interconnectedness and interdependence of media and remembering, specifically the production, interpretation and negotiation of remembering in the media ecology. In so doing it not only examines the role of media in the formation and sustaining of collective memory but also the ways those who remember or are remembered in media texts become implicated in these processes.
Book Synopsis The Media and the Falklands Campaign by : Valerie Adams
Download or read book The Media and the Falklands Campaign written by Valerie Adams and published by Springer. This book was released on 1986-09-08 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the controversy over the reporting of the Falklands conflict, criticism focused on the media's use of armchair strategists to interpret and speculate about operations in the South Atlantic. Valerie Adams sets that media commentary in an historical perspective and examines its actual content to see whether the criticism was justified and whether the material actually helped to inform the public about the actions undertaken on their behalf. The issues raised in wartime by the relationship between the media, the government and the public in a democracy are explored: the Falklands' problems appear insignificant set against potential future difficulties.

Book excerpt: How objective is media, and how does it use it's outlets to influence the public perception of events? In my matura paper, I analyse the coverage of the war over the Falkland Islands in the two countries involved, Great Britain and Argentina. During my exchange year in Argentina, I experienced first-hand how emotionally and one-sided the locals remember this conflict. After giving an overview over the war itself, the paper concentrates on the coverage of four main events during the war in 1982. The main sources were articles in Clarín, la Nación, The Times, The Guardian, The Observer and The Daily Mirror. Quantity, title setting and statements given are the main points in the investigation. The analysis shows how newspapers from both countries reported with bias. Both concentrated more on positive events and did not publish statements which would damage the moral of the country - ensuring continued popular support for the war happening. It also showed that, because of censorship, the Argentine representation of events was even more distorted than the British. Seeing the big differences in reporting from both countries, the conclusion can be reached that to get the full picture on something it is important to inform yourself through the coverage of all sides involved.

Download or read book The Falklands War written by George Boyce and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-03-16 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Falklands War of 1982 was a small war, but one with large resonances. The Argentine invasion of the one of the few remaining British colonies on 2 April might have been prevented by a more coherent British foreign policy, better intelligence analysis, and military precautions; and once the crisis began, it could have possibly ended by negotiation. Instead it involved both countries in a short, but intense, conflict which cost the lives of 255 British, and 625 Argentine, personnel. The Falklands War - Examines the interaction between military force and diplomacy, shedding light on their often hidden relationship - Explores the deeply personal response of the British and Argentine public to the conflict - Assesses the relationship between the Government and the media, and considers the interpretation of the war in Britain - Analyses the effect of the conflict on the concept of 'Thatcher's Britain' The Falklands War exemplified what one historian has called the 'myriad faces of war'. It was the last war which Britain fought outside a coalition or an international organisation, and, far from being marginal to Britain's key role as part of the defence system against the Soviet threat, it held a mirror up to the face of the British people in the late twentieth century. Authoritative and clear, this is the ideal introduction for anyone with an interest in one of Britain's most significant military engagements, its impact and consequences.
Book Synopsis The Battle for the Falklands by : Max Hastings
Download or read book The Battle for the Falklands written by Max Hastings and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2022-06-28 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Battle for the Falklands is a thoughtful and informed analysis of an astonishing chapter in modern British history from journalist and military historian Sir Max Hastings and political editor Simon Jenkins. Ten weeks. 28,000 soldiers. 8,000 miles from home. The Falklands War in 1982 was one of the strangest in British history. At the time, many Britons saw it as a tragic absurdity - thousands of men sent overseas for a tiny relic of empire - but the British victory over the Argentinians not only confirmed the quality of British arms but also boosted the political fortunes of Thatcher's Conservative government. However, it left a chequered aftermath and was later overshadowed by the two Gulf wars. Max Hastings’ and Simon Jenkins’ account of the conflict is a modern classic of war reportage and the definitive book on the conflict.

Book excerpt: "Malvinas Requiem has a well-earned spot as the major literary piece on Argentina's only twentieth-century war."--Buenos Aires Herald It's early June 1982 and winter in the Falkland Islands: twenty-four young soldiers--deserters from the Argentine army--spend the last weeks of the conflict hiding underground in a cave. Inside their refuge, they listen to the radio, stockpile supplies, and exchange stories; outside, under cover of night, they trade with the Argentine quartermaster and with the British. Looking out over the bleak landscape, after weeks of gray skies and horizontal snow, one of them remarks that "you'd have to be English to want this."
