Abstract

The article reports on a study using grounded theory methodology to track the contexts in which Australian parliamentarians used the expressions 'press freedom' and 'freedom of press' over the ten years from 1994 to 2004. It uses Parliamentry Hansard records to identify the speeches in which discussions of press freedom arose. Interestingly, the terms were used by members of the House of Representativies or Senate in just 78 speeches out of more than 180,000 over that decade. Those usages have been coded to develop a theory about the interface between press freedom and the parliament. This article reports just one aspect of the findings from the larger study—the way parliamentarians have contrasted the value of press freedom in Australia with press freedom in other countries. It is one step towards building a broader theory of press freedom in the Australian parliamentary context. 
国际背景下的澳大利亚议会与新闻自由
本文报告了一项研究,该研究使用扎根理论方法来追踪澳大利亚议员在1994年至2004年的十年间使用“新闻自由”和“新闻自由”这一表达的背景。它利用英国议会议事录(parliamentary Hansard)的记录来确定哪些演讲中出现了有关新闻自由的讨论。有趣的是,在那十年的18万多次演讲中,众议院或参议院的议员只在78次演讲中使用了这些术语。这些用法已被编码成一种关于新闻自由与议会之间关系的理论。这篇文章只报道了从更大的研究中发现的一个方面——议员们对比澳大利亚和其他国家新闻自由价值的方式。这是朝着在澳大利亚议会背景下建立更广泛的新闻自由理论迈出的一步。

期刊介绍: While one objective of Pacific Journalism Review is research into Pacific journalism theory and practice, the journal has also expanding its interest into new areas of research and inquiry that reflect the broader impact of contemporary media practice and education. A particular focus is on the cultural politics of the media, including the following issues: new media and social movements, indigenous cultures in the age of globalisation, the politics of tourism and development, the role of the media and the formation of national identity and the cultural influence of New Zealand as a branch of the global economy within the Pacific region. It also has a special interest in climate change, environmental and development studies in the media and communication and vernacular media in the region.
