Öffentlichkeitsarbeit der Beteiligten im Strafverfahren und mediale (Verdachts-)Berichterstattung: Neue Überlegungen zur „Störung der Strafrechtspflege“ vor dem Hintergrund des Internetzeitalters
by Janine FielitzBei medial begleiteten Strafverfahren geht es nicht mehr nur um die Wahrheitsfindung; die Verfahrensbeteiligten streben zunehmend danach, die Deutungshoheit über die mediale und öffentliche Meinung zu gewinnen. Neben der Öffentlichkeitsarbeit der Ermittlungs- und Justizbehörden und der damit einhergehenden, durch die internetbedingten Entwicklungen erhöhten Risiken und Gefahren für die Rechte und Interessen des Beschuldigten, befasst sich die Autorin insbes. mit den (als Verbindungsglied zwischen Strafjustiz und Öffentlichkeit fungierenden) Medien, der medialen (Verdachts-)Berichterstattung sowie der Öffentlichkeitsarbeit (Litigation-PR) der Verteidigung und Nebenklage. Sie zeichnet ein umfassendes Bild von dem Zusammenspiel und den Wechselwirkungen zwischen der Öffentlichkeitsarbeit der Beteiligten im Strafverfahren und der Medienberichterstattung, von den unterschiedlichen Rollen, den jeweiligen (z.T. konträren) Interessen, Rechten und Pflichten der Akteure, deren Handlungs- und Gestaltungsmöglichkeiten und den sich in diesem Zusammenhang für den Beschuldigten, die sonstigen Verfahrensbeteiligten, das Verfahren und damit auch für die Strafrechtspflege ergebenden Auswirkungen und Risiken.

The Routledge Companion to Public Humanities Scholarship (Routledge Literature Companions)
by Daniel Fisher-Livne Michelle May-CurryAcross humanities disciplines, public scholarship brings academics and community members and organizations together in mutually-beneficial partnership for research, teaching, and programming. While the field of publicly engaged humanities scholarship has been growing for some time, there are few volumes that have attempted to define and represent its scope. The Routledge Companion to Public Humanities Scholarship brings together wide-ranging case studies sharing perspectives on this work, grounded in its practice in the United States.The collection begins with chapters reflecting on theories and practices of public humanities scholarship. The case studies that follow are organized around six areas of particular impact in public humanities scholarship: Informing contemporary debates; amplifying community voices and histories; helping individuals and communities navigate difficult experiences; preserving culture in times of crisis and change; expanding educational access; and building and supporting public scholarship. The Companion concludes with a glossary, introducing select concepts. Taken together, these resources offer an overview for students and practitioners of public humanities scholarship, creating an accessible vocabulary rooted in the practices that have so advanced academic and community life.Although drawing on case studies from the US, these examples offer perspectives and insights relevant to public humanities around the world. This book will be of interest to anyone working within the public humanities or wanting to make their work public and engage with wider communities.
