Abstract

Compared to studies on peace-journalism content, little research examines journalists’ perceptions of peace journalism despite theoretical suggestions that individuals influence content production. To address this relative disparity, this study examines the social conditions shaping journalists’ perceptions of peace journalism using a hierarchy-of-influences perspective and data from 20 in-depth interviews with East African journalists, conducted between September 2020 and February 2021. Findings suggest that journalists generally understand peace journalism in one of two ways, each with distinct intended audiences, aims, and reporting interventions. Moreover, when examined alongside respondents’ professional situations, these perceptions tend to be stratified by varying degrees of professional precarity.
为了人民,为了政策:记者对东非和平新闻的看法
与对和平新闻内容的研究相比,很少有研究考察记者对和平新闻的看法,尽管理论上认为个人会影响内容制作。为了解决这种相对差异,本研究使用影响层次视角和2020年9月至2021年2月对东非记者进行的20次深度采访的数据,考察了影响记者对和平新闻认知的社会条件。调查结果表明,记者通常以两种方式之一理解和平新闻,每种方式都有不同的目标受众、目的和报道干预。此外,当与受访者的职业状况一起考察时,这些认知往往会根据不同程度的职业不稳定程度进行分层。

期刊介绍: The International Journal of Press/Politics is an interdisciplinary journal for the analysis and discussion of the role of the press and politics in a globalized world. The Journal is interested in theoretical and empirical research on the linkages between the news media and political processes and actors. Special attention is given to the following subjects: the press and political institutions (e.g. the state, government, political parties, social movements, unions, interest groups, business), the politics of media coverage of social and cultural issues (e.g. race, language, health, environment, gender, nationhood, migration, labor), the dynamics and effects of political communication.
