País de muertos
by Diego Enrique OsornoUna estupenda colección de crónicas y reportajes sobre los muertos y la gente que claman por justicia en México, redactados por algunos de los periodistas más destacados de la actualidad: Emiliano Ruiz Parra, Pablo Ordaz, José Luis Martínez S, León Krauze, Arturo Rodríguez García, Alejandro Almazán, John Gibler, Daniel de la Fuente, Angeles Magdaleno, Daniela Rea, Froylán Enciso. La recopilación de los textos estuvo a cargo de Diego Enrique Osorno. Trece crónicas estremecedoras sobre la impunidad, escritas por algunos de los mejores periodistas mexicanos. El término "periodismo narrativo" suele ser visto con escepticismo y hasta con sorna en algunas redacciones donde, como dice Juan Villoro, los periodistas cada vez se hacen más gordos y los periódicos más flacos. En esos lugares "informar" puede consistir en sentarse a revisar el correo electrónico, descargar el boletín oficial (ya sea del gobierno, la ONG, el partido opositor o la empresa trasnacional), reescribirlo, preservando el mismo tono de rueda de prensa, producir una nota que hable con voz institucional y mantener así al periodismo dentro de la escenografía de la impunidad. "Narrar", por el contrario, requiere una presencia en el sitio donde suceden las cosas, aprender a escuchar, desarrollar una capacidad de observación de los pequeños detalles, tener una enorme concentración a la hora de contar la experiencia vivida y desafiar así, con el poder de la palabra, lo absurdo. No es lo mismo contar el número de muertos que contar las historias de nuestros muertos. Esta guía narrativa de la impunidad asesina en México fue hecha a partir de esa idea. La vida de hoy mata, los casos contados en este libro así lo demuestran. Nos estamos muriendo: las mujeres, los obreros, los niños, los narcos, los indígenas, los mineros, las maestras, los policías, los campesinos, los comerciantes, los periodistas, los profesores de ping-pong, los soldados, las estudiantes, los vivosy los muertos, que ya muertos, vuelven a morir otra vez, una y otra vez, a causa de la ausencia de justicia y el olvido. Las catorce crónicas de País de muertos no son parte de ninguna fosa común o de una sala del museo de los muertos. Conforman una de las antologías más plurales y representativas del periodismo narrativo y de investigación, si no es que ambos adjetivos salen sobrando y se debería hablar solamente de buen periodismo hecho en México.
Peace Journalism Principles and Practices: Responsibly Reporting Conflicts, Reconciliation, and Solutions
by Steven YoungbloodLong-time peace journalist Steven Youngblood presents the foundations of peace journalism in this exciting new textbook, offering readers the methods, approaches, and concepts required to use journalism as a tool for peace, reconciliation, and development. Guidance is offered on framing stories, ethical treatment of sensitive subjects, and avoiding polarizing stereotypes through a range of international examples and case studies spanning from the Iraq war to the recent unrest in Ferguson, Missouri. Youngblood teaches students to interrogate traditional media narratives about crime, race, politics, immigration, and civil unrest, and to illustrate where—and how—a peace journalism approach can lead to more responsible and constructive coverage, and even assist in the peace process itself.

Pearl S. Buck’s Novels of China and America: The Battle of Life
by Rob HardyThis book, the first single-authored book-length study of Buck’s fiction for over twenty years, shows how Buck’s thought developed through the medium of her fiction - from her early turbulent years in China to her last lonely days in the United States, with chapters examining her loss of faith in Christianity, her reflections on Chinese life during and after the breakdown of Old China, her voluminous reading, her confrontation with the horrors of American racism and sexism after her return to the United States, and her final metaphorical search for home as she approached death. The book argues that Buck, the first American woman to win both the Pulitzer and Nobel prizes for literature, was a heroic forerunner of those who, while occupying a place in the world, never feel fully at home there; in Buck’s case because her Chinese identity throughout her life struggled with her American. For this reason Pearl S. Buck’s fiction deserves to be considered alongside that of writers such as Anchee Min, Maxine Hong Kingston and Amy Tan. The book’s central claim is that Buck is a major novelist, capable of speaking to the distress of our times, richly deserving the honor she has received in China, and deserving greater recognition in the United States.
