Palestine-Israel in the Print News Media - Contending Discourses (Hardcover): Luke Peterson Palestine-Israel in the Print News Media - Contending Discourses (Hardcover)
Luke Peterson
R4,438 Discovery Miles 44 380 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Israel-Palestine in the Print News Media: Contending Discourses is concerned with conceptions of language, knowledge, and thought about political conflict in the Middle East in two national news media communities: the United States and the United Kingdom.

Arguing for the existence of national perspectives which are constructed, distributed, and reinforced in the print news media, this study provides a detailed linguistic analysis of print news media coverage of four recent events in the Palestinian-Israeli conflict in order to examine ideological patterns present in print news media coverage. The two news communities are compared for lexical choices in news stories about the conflict, attribution of agency in the discussion of conflict events, the inclusion or exclusion of historical context in explanations of the conflict, and reliance upon essentialist elements during and within print representations of Palestine-Israel. The book also devotes space to first-hand testimony from journalists with extensive experience covering the conflict from within both news media institutions.

Unifying various avenues of academic enquiry reflecting upon the acquisition of information and the development of knowledge, this book will be of interest to those seeking a new approach to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict.

Palestine in the American Mind (Paperback): Luke Peterson Palestine in the American Mind (Paperback)
Luke Peterson
R1,285 Discovery Miles 12 850 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This study offers a framework for approaching an analysis of the discourse on Palestine in the contemporary United States by conducting a close investigation of print news contributions to that discourse. Relevant theoretical frameworks are applied in order to interpret definitions of discourse, processes of discourse formation, and in particular contributions from the news media to contemporary discourse in the United States. This study argues that contemporary discourse constructs Palestine as an other opposed to contemporary conceptions of a national self. This assertion is made according to relevant theoretical approaches considering the formation of individual and group identities. This study further seeks to delineate the characteristics of the self and the other through an analysis of relevant examples from news media discourse. Aspects of the contemporary American identity are thereby examined, and through this investigation, the dynamic relationship between conceptions of the American "self" and constructions of the Palestinian "other" is elucidated.
