Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2022

A comprehensive edited collection on the topic of responsible journalism in divided societies, drawing on a global range of contributions Contributors engage with longstanding questions and new challenges surrounding concepts of responsibility, trust, public service, and public interest in journalism Divided into three parts, the book explores the themes of local news, peace journalism, and audience relationships and how they relate to the practice of responsible journalism The book applies an inclusive concept of ‘conflicted societies’, going beyond those affected by violent conflict to include traditionally ‘stable’ but increasingly polarised democracies, such as the UK and the USA The studies also include societies often overlooked in media and journalism studies, such as Northern Ireland, Turkey, Cyprus, Pakistan, The Democratic Republic of Congo, and the Central African Republic Chapters also feature contemporary case studies, such as the Covid-19 pandemic, as a route into understanding the pertinent issue of fake news, and the ‘local turn’ in journalism The book will be a valuable resource for those studying conflict reporting and international journalism and will also appeal to any scholars working at the intersection of media, journalism, communication, peace, conflict, and security studies
