About this title

Synopsis

This volume consists of 22 essays on freedom of expression and the media in the context of transition due to globalization, geopolitics, and new information technologies. Media and other researchers from Nordic countries examine the Nordic media model; freedom of expression, the media, and the public sphere, including press freedom and other media freedoms, market and democracy-driven freedom of expression, visual news coverage, and digital media pluralism; threats to freedom of press related to privacy, source protection, drones in journalism, arrest, information control, and political dissidence; and safety and civil rights when reporting war and conflict, with discussion of female journalists, and ethics, guilt, and posttraumatic stress.
