WiSe 20/21: Arab Media Systems

Carola Richter

Comments

In this seminar students will comparatively analyze media systems in the MENA (Middle East and North Africa) region. The often contradicting developments of modernization and liberalization on the one hand and neo-authoritarian repression and oligarchization on the other hand make these media systems so interesting and worthwhile to be explored. This seminar will make students familiar with the structures, actors and mechanisms that shape these media systems. At the same time, the observed developments will be embedded in broader discussion about theories and methodology of comparison, going beyond the Arab region. Besides the typical reading of scholarly texts, a course-specific eLearning platform (www.areacore.org/ims) will be a main guide for students. Moreover, students in Berlin will engage in joint virtual sessions with Arab students from partner institutes in Egypt, Lebanon, Jordan, Tunisia, Morocco, Qatar, Yemen, and Palestine. Experts from the region will provide you with authentic input and work as supervisors for the video-making. Instead of giving course presentations, students will jointly produce new video material for the eLearning platform in intercultural German-Arab teams. Students wishing to participate in the course should make sure to be available online every Tuesday between 10-12 am and every Thursday between 12-14 for the course. The course will be taught online in a synchronous mode. Moreover, it is strongly advised to be (physically) present all day on December 10 for a film-making workshop (more details in the first session of the seminar). Videos shall be shot and finalized until the end of January 2021. close
