Elfriede Fürsich
Comments
This class investigates the role of old and new media in creating a productive public sphere in an increasingly globalizing world. Using key concepts in communication, cultural, and globalization studies, the course covers topics such as the impact of media on foreign affairs; the shortcomings of international journalism in covering war and terrorism; the potential of non-traditional journalism (such as travel or entertainment journalism) to change problematic representations of the "Other;" and the possibilities of digital communication (such as social media or news games) for international exchange and development. The class will enable students to assess the potential of journalism, media and digital technology to foster international understanding and cooperation. close
