摘要

2018年9月，第二波“我也是印度”运动在印度恢复，开启了关于性侵犯的对话。令人惊讶的是，这并没有导致性侵犯成为2019年初印度议会选举的一个关键竞选议题。本研究调查了新闻媒体和社交媒体在2019年印度人民院竞选活动中建立反性侵犯议程的潜在作用。它建立在过去关于理性选择决策理论、社交媒体行动主义和强奸作为竞选中的政治问题的文献基础之上。这项混合方法研究包括分析竞选期间的政治宣言和Facebook帖子，在印度发行量最大的两家英文报纸上发表的新闻文章，以及对政治记者的采访。主流媒体对性侵犯的报道受到限制，泛印度社交媒体平台也限制了这个问题在选举期间成为竞选活动的一部分。

Off limits: The role of news and social media in developing sexual assault and harassment as a campaign issue during the Indian parliamentary elections of 2019

In September 2018, the second wave of #Metooindia resumed in India, opening up conversations on sexual assault. Surprisingly, this did not lead to the inclusion of sexual assault as a key campaign issue in the Indian parliamentary elections in early 2019. This study investigates the underlying role of news media and social media in building an anti-sexual assault agenda in the 2019 Indian Lok Sabha election campaign. It builds on past literature on rational choice decision-making theory, social media activism and rape as a political issue in campaigns. This mixed method study includes the analysis of political manifestos and Facebook posts during the campaign, news articles published in the two most circulated English newspapers in India and interviews with political journalists. The restrained mainstream media coverage of sexual assault and pan-Indian social media platforms helped to limit the issue from becoming a part of the campaign during the elections.
