Media, Diaspora and the Somali Conflict

Autor Idil Osman
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 6 sep 2017
This book illustrates how diasporic media can re-create conflict by transporting conflict dynamics and manifesting them back in to diaspora communities. Media, Diaspora and Conflict demonstrates a previously overlooked complexity in diasporic media by using the Somali conflict as a case study to indicate how the media explores conflict in respective homelands, in addition to revealing its participatory role in transnationalising conflicts. By illustrating the familiar narratives associated with diasporic media and utilising a combination of Somali websites and television, focus groups with diaspora community members and interviews with journalists and producers, the potentials and restrictions of diasporic media and how it relates to homelands in conflict are explored.

Recenzii

“Idil Osman’s book … is a highly interesting contribution to journalism and diaspora studies, especially with its focus on conflict re-creation and diasporic media. … It is well written and highly informative; the chapters flow well and complement each other. More importantly, it presents original data to an audience of academics and non-academics who want to learn more about the Somali conflict and the Somali diaspora. … this book makes an original contribution to the field.” (Bahar Baser, Ethnic and Racial Studies, Vol. 40, November, 2017)

Caracteristici

Demonstrates how protracted social and political processes have culminated in the civil war and continue to shape the current conflict Highlights how the long-standing and usually well-intentioned international community engagement tends to have a misguided approach which often exacerbates the conflict Illustrates how diasporic media can re-create conflict, through a theoretically developed and empirically informed argument that provides three distinctly analytical approaches, referred to as the three politics of non-recognition, solidarity and mobilisation Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
