  • UN Crisis Diplomacy and Peacekeeping: an Emergency Health Check1
    45 Oslo Forum 2014 – The Oslo Forum Network of Mediators UN crisis diplomacy and peacekeeping: an emergency health check1 1. The UN: in need of a check-up? The United Nations (UN) is currently in poor health but the severity of its condition is not yet clear. Over the last six months, the organisation has repeatedly shown signs of operational feebleness and political paralysis. Symptoms have ranged from the failure of the UN mission in South Sudan to foresee the country’s implosion last December to the prolonged agony (and predictable futility) of bringing the Syrian government and opposition together in Geneva in January. The organisation’s initial response to the Ukrainian crisis was equally messy, as the Secretary-General’s envoy Robert Serry was expelled from Crimea by pro-Russian forces and the Security Council was unable to react because of Moscow’s veto. From Darfur and Somalia to the Central African Republic (CAR) and Mali, UN peace operations and political missions have had to contend with poor resources, personnel and security. But while these symptoms are worrying, their significance is uncertain. Are these merely the spasms and chills that inevitably affect any organisation involved in crisis management? Or could they be evidence of a chronic disability with the potential to cripple the organisation’s long-term contribution to peace and security? Section 4 – There are reasons for optimism. UN missions and officials have demonstrated resilience in the face of recent setbacks. Although caught off-guard in South Sudan, the peacekeepers there sheltered over 80,000 civilians in their camps despite incurring fatalities.

  • The CNN Effect: the Search for a Communication Theory of International Relations

' ^ ISSN: 1058-4609 print / 1091-7675 online SV Taylor & Francs Croup DOI: 10.1080/10584600590908429 The CNN Effect: The Search for a Communication Theory of International Relations EYTAN GILBOA This study investigates the decade long effort to construct and validate a communi- cations theory of international relations that asserts that global television networks, such as CNN and BBC Worid, have become a decisive actor in determining policies and outcomes of significant events. It systematically and critically analyzes major works published on this theory, known also as the CNN effect, both in professional and academic outlets. These publications include theoretical and comparative works, specific case studies, and even new paradigms. The study reveals an ongoing debate on the validity of this theory and concludes that studies have yet to present sufficient evidence validating the CNN effect, that many works have exaggerated this effect, and that the focus on this theory has deflected attention from other ways giobai television affects mass communication, joumalism, and intemational relations. The article also proposes a new agenda for research on the various effects of global television networks. Keywords CNN effect, communication technologies, foreign policymaking, global communication, humanitarian intervention, intemational conflict, paradigms, televi- sion news, U.S. foreign policy The Second World War created for the first time in history a truly global intemational system. Events in one region affect events elsewhere and therefore are of interest to states in other, even distant places. At the beginning of the 1980s, innovations in com- munication technologies and the vision of Ted Turner produced CNN, the first global news network (Whittemore, 1990).

  • ABSTRACT Title of Document: JAPANESE and US MEDIA COVERAGE of the IRAQ
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: JAPANESE AND U.S. MEDIA COVERAGE OF THE IRAQ WAR: A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS Kazuhiro Maeshima, Ph.D., 2007 Directed By: Professor Miranda Schreurs, Department of Government and Politics This study investigates the relationship between the media and politics by analyzing the Iraq War coverage of two leading U.S. and Japanese newspapers: the New York Times and the Asahi. This dissertation reveals that these two print media, although both liberal in their general orientation, treated the Iraq War differently. First, it quantitatively finds that they are quite distinctive in their choice of main topics. During the run-up period to the war, the Asahi put more focus on the role of the United Nations while the majority of the stories appearing in the New York Times addressed U.S. decisions about Iraq. Second, the dissertation’s qualitative analysis of editorials reveals that a different emphasis on who the “evil” doers in the war are. While the New York Times treated the oppressive Saddam Hussein regime and terrorists as the “evildoers,” the Asahi portrayed the U.S. as the big evil doer. Further, content analysis of articles written by embedded journalists who were with coalition forces in Iraq revealed that the two newspapers’ articles showed significant disparities in the degree of sympathy they showed to the forces. Numerous background factors have influenced this media content. Interviews with Japanese journalists and scholars revealed that the cultures of anti-militarism held by Japanese that originated from Japan’s defeat in World War II remain firm within Japanese news organizations.

By analyzing the theoretical framework of media – state relations and conducting a research in the archives of two mainstream Greek and two mainstream Turkish newspapers in three different cases, which show different aspects of the bilateral relations of the two countries, this study seeks to find if influence on foreign policy formulation, regarding the relations of the two countries, can be traced and explained. The issues of pressure by the media, current situation of media companies in Greece and Turkey, and similarities, as well as differences between the functioning of these companies and their relation to the state, are also met. Key Words: Greek – Turkish relations, foreign policy formulation, media, influence Özet Bu tez, medya ve dış politika yapımı arasındaki ilişki bağlamında 2004-2011 yılları arasındaki dönemde Türk-Yunanilişkilerinde dış politikan oluşturulması sürecini incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır.

  • From the CNN Effect to the Al –Jazeere Effect

Published by American Research Institute for Policy Development DOI: 10.15640/jirfp.v4n2a3 URL: https://doi.org/10.15640/jirfp.v4n2a3 The Role of the Media in International Relations: From the CNN Effect to the Al –Jazeere Effect Filiz Coban1 Abstract International networks foster solidarity within an information audience by creating virtual communities. Namely CNN, BBC and Al-Jazeera are increasing people’s awareness in their religion, culture and place in the world. In addition, faster and easily accessible information within global media had triggered the information wars among the states which have changed power politics. This article argues that the involvement of the media in international relations signifies interdependence and mutual exploitation between the media and politics. In this context, with a specific emphasise on the concept of ‘the CNN effect’ and ‘the Al-Jazeere effect’, it shows how the media have become integral parts of the world politics, how they have transformed international power struggle and have enabled the rise of the rest against the Western hegemony Keywords: media; international politics; CNN effect; Al-Jazeere Effect Introduction Despite media’s unquestioned importance in the conduct of international affairs, it seems that the Studies of International Relations (IR) still fail to address the issue adequately and comprehensively,

Can the media be used more effectively to generate effective and sustained responses to such emergencies? These are some of the questions this edited volume examines.

Although the connection has probably always been more complex than what was captured in the concept, research needs to be updated in order to better understand the multifaceted contemporary environments of both media and conflict. There are growing numbers and types of media sources, and multiple interactions between media and conflict actors, policymakers and engaged publics from the local to the global and back. We argue that , subject to the Cambridge Core terms of use, available at understanding the impact of media reporting on conflict requires a new framework that captures the multilevel and hybrid media environments of contemporary conflicts. This study provides a roadmap of how to systematically unpack this environment.

Kelly, Ph.D. Thesis Chair ______________________________ Douglas Mann, Ph.D. Committee Member ______________________________ Amy Bonebright, M.A. Committee Member ______________________________ James H. Nutter, D.A. Honors Director ______________________________ Date THE CNN EFFECT 3 Abstract Mass media have great power and great responsibility. The CNN Effect states that when news media broadcast emotionally driven stories of human crisis, this provokes a major response by domestic audiences and political elites. This power to influence public policy can help save people from danger and even death. Acts of massive genocide were committed in Rwanda and Darfur. Because the media failed to act quickly and report accurately on these situations, many people lost their lives due to slow international reaction. News media need to learn from these tragic mistakes and never let genocide go on unnoticed by those who have the power to stop it. THE CNN EFFECT 4 The CNN Effect: Mass Media and Humanitarian Aid Mass media have an enormous influence over the public. From advertising to news broadcasts to nightly sitcoms, people are continuously bombarded with opinions and information (Cohen, Gunther, Talor & Tsfati, 2010). Many do not realize the impact media have on their lives.
