Given their binational perspectives, I respond with grassroots borderlands perspectives on the challenges and on an essential but understudied element in our globalized world, that of cross-border collective action among nongovernmental organizations (NGOs). Alas, all too little research exists in this area, so the authors are to be commended for their complex analysis that moves understanding and action forward. In this essay, I unpack the United States, Mexico, and the in-between spaces in the borderlands, and changing contexts. I highlight the ways that the United States and its policies share some responsibility for the problems that the authors outline, particularly the longest running war ever, the War on Drugs, which incentivizes suppliers and their collaborators to behave brutally to gain enormous profits from the huge U.S. market and suppress news about their dastardly deeds. The monograph is useful to students, scholars, and activists not only for its deep knowledge of Mexico but also for possible replication elsewhere in other parts of the world. Using a comprehensive and a highly credible, in-depth mixed-methods approach, the authors interviewed a purposive sample of 33 people from five different types of relevant organizations. Having methodically analyzed the stages associated with human organizing for concrete change, their findings about ambivalent outcomes can only leave readers wondering about the ability and willingness of the Mexican government to implement its “Protection Measures” for journalists facing threats. While the murders and disappearances of journalists have gone down since new instruments were put into place, the number of reports of threats and assaults is increasing. Perhaps an even bigger framework is in order, one that draws in the United States and U.S. policies, as well as people active in cross-border solidarity.","PeriodicalId":147592,"journal":{"name":"Journalism & Mass Communication Monographs","volume":"75 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132977876","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

His early interest in alternatives to the unregulated free market led him to charismatic figures like Ralph Waldo Emerson, who questioned the tenets of laissez-faire capitalism and lamented its impact on politics and culture. Emerson’s followers included Associationists, those who sought to place nature at the center of life as an agricultural resource and to return to humanistic values threatened by the Industrial Revolution. In the pages of the Tribune, Greeley leveraged Associationists’ attack on economic inequality to advance his crusade against unemployment and labor exploitation, including Southern slavery. Publicity campaigns on behalf of economic reform appeared during three key phases of his career. In his weekly New-Yorker, Greeley promoted Emerson and his followers including Associationist radicals during the antebellum period. During the Civil War, he provided a platform for the editorials of Karl Marx. During the Gilded Age, Greeley’s final attempt to realize his socialist utopian vision was the Union Colony, an ill-fated collectivist frontier establishment led by his Tribune agricultural editor Nathan Meeker. Greeley’s relationship with Emerson inspired his willingness to use the Tribune to publicize each era’s most controversial critics of capitalism. This research traces the socialist threads in the tapestry of press history and the promotional apparatus that brought radical intellectual culture into prominence in American life.","PeriodicalId":147592,"journal":{"name":"Journalism & Mass Communication Monographs","volume":"2013 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-02-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131944900","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

140 Years of Birth Control Coverage in the Prestige Press 声望出版社140年的节育报道

Ambitious in scope, the study provides a valuable and often fascinating bird’s eye view of this still-relevant topic. By examining the latent meaning in 3,604 newspaper stories, editorials, and letters to the editor, Garner and Michel create a picture—in broad brushstrokes—of contraception coverage as cultural narrative. They include enough well-chosen details about specific events and individuals to inspire future researchers. Ultimately, however, the biggest contribution of Garner and Michel’s work is to identify trends over time, although they do not analyze them in depth or detail. The study focuses on coverage in the New York Times, the Chicago Tribune, and the Los Angeles Times, newspapers that belong to the so-called “prestige press.” One problem with this approach is that it runs the risk of treating a narrow slice of the media pie as synonymous with “media coverage.” In fact, such studies give us at best a partial view of reality, one that reflects the structural biases of the prestige press: Male-dominated, elite, and privileging those in power. Garner and Michel acknowledge that many voices have been systematically omitted from “newspapers of record”: Women, minorities, working class, poor, immigrants, and so forth. Despite this recognition of bias and omission, they sometimes treat the results of their study as generalizable to a larger, more diverse, and inclusive population. Although it’s essential to identify the constraints and perils of elite newspaper coverage of any given topic, it’s even more imperative with a topic like contraception, which is entwined with the politics of race, class, and gender. Perhaps the greatest peril lies in adopting a narrow frame of reference that is widely viewed as authoritative. Consequently, one runs the risk of reproducing the dominant rhetoric, along with existing power relations and blind spots. Nevertheless, one can still ask how an overview of 140 years of birth control coverage in the prestige press helps us understand cultural narratives about contraception. What’s the takeaway, and how can it inform future research into birth control coverage in the media? This response will focus on (a) contraception as a cultural battleground, (b) the voices of women in contraception coverage, and (c) the relationship of birth control to eugenics and sterilization.","PeriodicalId":147592,"journal":{"name":"Journalism & Mass Communication Monographs","volume":"144 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123735723","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Those who were not close to Kevin were surprised to learn that he had a history of heart trouble; he seemed fit, and even youthful. His death marked the end of a remarkable academic career, the impact of which will continue to unfold. His superb book, Mister Pulitzer and the Spider, was just being printed when he died.Barnhurst entered the field of journalism studies almost accidentally (Barnhurst, 2011). An undergraduate degree in Latin American studies from Brigham Young University (BYU) had led to internships with the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the United Nations (UN) but no job; an initial attempt at a master's degree in economics at the University of Maryland had petered out, and instead he earned a master's in communication from BYU. This degree had involved a couple of skills-based courses, which proved to be the ticket to freelance work in design and editing. This is turn led to teaching design and editing, first at Westminster College, a liberal arts college affiliated with the Presbyterian Church, then at Keene State University. While at Keene State he published essays, including one in the American Scholar (Barnhurst, 1982) that caught the eye of James Carey, who nudged the Department of Journalism at the University of Illinois to recruit him to the faculty. This is where I met Kevin: We were assistant professors together in what was then called the College of Communications, now the College of Media.At Illinois, Barnhurst learned to be an academic by emulation. He read broadly, and began sitting in on doctoral seminars. I was a fellow traveler in those days. I'd been hired a short while before Kevin. My background was in history, and I had never taken a course in journalism or communication before being assigned to teach them. Part of my introduction to the field was sitting in, with Kevin, on a seminar in audience studies co-taught by our colleagues Ellen Wartella and Larry Grossberg.Meanwhile, his colleagues in the Journalism department began to signal that he would have trouble getting tenure, and reacted with displeasure when he won a Fulbright to Peru and a coveted Gannett Center fellowship in New York, where he wrote his first book, Seeing the Newspaper (Barnhurst, 1994). Barnhurst responded by moving to Syracuse University. There his book earned him tenure. Shortly after having a massive heart attack, he began a PhD program at the University of Amsterdam. He defended at the end of a year spent writing his dissertation while on sabbatical in Tenerife, then teaching in Syracuse's study abroad program in Madrid. With PhD in hand, he moved to the Chicago campus of the University of Illinois. There he finished another book (Barnhurst & Nerone, 2001), took on administrative duties as director of graduate studies and department head, took the major part in founding a doctoral program, and continued the series of studies that would eventu","PeriodicalId":147592,"journal":{"name":"Journalism & Mass Communication Monographs","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126851250","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this conversation, predominantly male voices have attached reproductive rights to tangential moral and political matters, revealing an ongoing, systematic attempt to regulate human bodies, especially those of women. This analysis of 1873-2013 press coverage of contraception in the New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, and the Chicago Tribune shows a division between institutional ideology and real-life experience; women’s reproductive rights are negotiable. Although journalists often reported that contraception was a factor in the everyday life of women and men, press accounts also showed religious, medical, legislative, and legal institutions debating whether it should be. Contraception originally was predominately viewed as a practice of prostitutes (despite evidence to the contrary) but became a part of everyday life. The battle has slowly evolved into one about the Affordable Care Act, religious freedom, morality, and employer rights. What did not significantly change over the 140-year period are larger cultural and ideological structures; these continue to be dominated by men, who retain power over women’s bodies.","PeriodicalId":147592,"journal":{"name":"Journalism & Mass Communication Monographs","volume":"167 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132931159","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Academics and Imaginary Communities 学术与想象社区

Rakow","doi":"10.1177/1522637916656376","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1177/1522637916656376","url":null,"abstract":"There is more than a verbal tie between image, imagine, and imaginary to steal from the memorable association that John Dewey made in Democracy and Education (1916) between common, community, and communication. The choice of word sets here is neither accidental nor incidental: The tie between them has been given us by Benedict Anderson. His Imagined Communities (1983) has captured the imagination of academics, who have found his tale of nation-states cum communities a satisfying explanation of what has been otherwise a source of irritation, if not disdain. The notion of community has been out of favor among social scientists generally and among communication scholars in particular since the heyday of University of Chicago community studies. It is now academically fashionable to consider community a stifling regime of conformity, an outdated god term of progressivism, and too laden with positive baggage to be of analytical value.Clay Carey, however, puts community squarely before us for re-consideration. With Anderson's Imagined Communities as his guide, Carey invites us to imagine how the Amish and Mennonites who subscribe to a nationally distributed newspaper achieve a transcendent virtual community. Finessing Anderson's account, Carey describes The Budget, a 125-year-old weekly newspaper with a stable circulation of 18,000, as creating a community out of a religious diaspora rather than out of a nation-state. Its readers' identification with mostly strangers across distance derives from the newspaper's expression of shared values of faith, tradition, and social cohesion. Letters from scribes representing local settlements display the ongoing and reassuring routines of community life.Carey's respectful if uncritical description of the role of the newspaper and of the communal life it purports to represent provides us a set of challenges for understanding community and the news. Is a newspaper all it takes to pull off community in the minds and hearts of strangers? Do communities exist only in our imaginations without any material standing? How do we as scholars imagine the communities invoked and experienced by others? How do they, Amish and Mennonites, read this newspaper, both literally and figuratively, and what functions do they ascribe to it? Would they agree they are part of an imagined community? Are any of the grounds for community that are practiced locally and displayed in the newspaper contested or resisted? To explore these questions, we need to turn to some other thinking about communities and newspapers to see where they lead.Ontical CommunitiesThinking of community as a sense of shared identity achieved through the imagination, as Anderson does, has led to some academics who have appropriated Anderson's usage to apply it wholesale, too often without sufficient reflection or nuance. The material world, including our bodies, disappears from consideration when community is considered to be, in essence, all in our heads.
