Synopsis
Bringing together 17 authors from diverse perspectives, Insights on Journalism and Human Rights offers an accessible introduction to the characteristics and complexities of reporting human rights issues in a changing media environment.Organised into three sections, this book begins by mapping the field of human rights and journalism, outlining the evolving interaction between journalists and the human rights movement, and summarising the main theories and debates surrounding this relationship. Chapters then focus on journalists who find themselves at the centre of human rights violations and explore the challenges they face when covering human rights abuses, including their own safety and responsibilities. The final section of the book scrutinises the media’s treatment of various human rights-related issues such as terrorism, missing people, climate change, and migration, and identifies weaknesses and gaps in their coverage.Featuring case studies, points for discussion, and further reading suggestions throughout, Insights on Journalism and Human Rights is recommended reading for advanced students, educators, and researchers in this field.
