Chapel Hill 2011 Approved By: Dr. Lucila Vargas Dr. Andrew Reynolds Dr. Anne Johnston ©2011 Luisa Caitlin Phillips Ryan ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT LUISA RYAN: The Role of Local Media in Peacebuilding in Nepal (Under the direction of Dr. Lucila Vargas). Journalists are often severely impacted by armed conflict: they may be the victims of targeted violence or co‐opted by one side or another to spread partisan propaganda. In protracted conflicts, journalism training, financing and infrastructure may dry up completely, impacting the ability of community members to access information. Media development in post‐conflict settings has become a priority of funding bodies, as an independent fourth estate is believed to strengthen democratic mechanisms, and guard against a return to violence. The Nepal case study serves to explore how local media may interact with an evolving peace process, and what support the international community may be able to offer. Drawing upon grounded theory, this thesis presents the findings of fieldwork conducted in Nepal from December 2010 to January 2011. Thirty‐three in‐depth interviews were conducted in three key geo‐political locations. Core findings of this research reveal that the Nepalese media sector needs continuing support.

  • The Trafficking in Untaxed Cigarettes in Germany: a Case Study of the Social Embeddedness of Illegal Markets by Klaus Von Lampe
    The Trafficking in Untaxed Cigarettes in Germany: A Case Study of the Social Embeddedness of Illegal Markets by Klaus von Lampe published in: Petrus van Duyne, Klaus von Lampe, Nikos Passas (eds.) Upperworld and Underworld in Cross-Border Crime Nijmegen: Wolf Legal Publishers, 2002, pp. 141-161 ISBN 90-5850-030-6 Copies of the book may be ordered at http://www.wlp.biz The Trafficking in Untaxed Cigarettes in Germany A Case Study of the Social Embeddedness of Illegal Markets Klaus von Lampe1 Introduction In April 1991 the Berlin based daily newspaper ‘die tageszeitung’ felt it needed to do something about its readers’ foreign-language skills. In order to buy a carton of cigarettes on Kantstrasse, a major street in the Western part of Berlin, the proper thing to say, the newspaper advised, was the Polish phrase ‘Ile kosztuje karton Marlboro?’, how much is a carton of Marlboros.2 Since the visa obligation had been lifted for Polish citizens travelling to the then capitalist enclave of West Berlin in January of 1989, smokers could choose between the highly taxed cigarettes sold in tobacco stores and supermarkets, and cheap contraband cigarettes from Poland sold by illicit street dealers. In the turbulent times after the German re-unification, however, a crash-course in Polish was soon outdated. In West Berlin, under pressure from a law-and-order-seeking public, the authorities cracked down on the Polish dominated street sale of untaxed cigarettes. Meanwhile in East Berlin and other cities in the former German Democratic Republic (GDR), an illegal market for cigarettes of even greater proportions had emerged.

  • Journalism Caught in Narrow Nationalism: the India-Pakistan Media War
    Reuters Institute Fellowship Paper University of Oxford Journalism Caught in Narrow Nationalism: The India-Pakistan Media War by Dwaipayan Bose Hillary and Trinity Terms 2011 Sponsor: Thomson Reuters Foundation Acknowledgments In a profession marked by tight deadlines, breakneck speed, long hours, intense competition and pressure from both above and below, it is absolutely essential that one takes a break, rejuvenates the brain cells and finds out what’s happening to journalism across the world. In order to do that, one needs a helping hand, a catalyst. That, for me, has been the Thomson Reuters Foundation, my sponsor and the Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism, my place of study. I am deeply grateful to both for giving me the opportunity to spend six months in Oxford and absorb all that this great university town has to offer. Writing this paper, researching for it, studying at the Bodleian, attending seminars was an ‘Experience Extraordinary’. I am thankful to RISJ director Dr David Levy, head of the journalism fellowship programme James Painter, and director of journalism John Lloyd for structuring the fellowship in a way that left me intellectually stimulated and enlightened. Life and logistics were taken care of by RISJ administrator Sara Kalim, staffers Alex Reid, Kate Hanneford-Smith and Amanda Armstrong – all of whom were extremely kind and helpful. I can never thank Dr Daya Thussu, my guide, enough for the great interest and commitment with which he helped me navigate through this delicate subject. Senior journalists, editors of India, Pakistan and beyond have helped me, spoke to me and gave their frank and free views on the subject.

The ship of Europe had run aground. The idea of the European federation, as it is being represented in Strasbourg, found itself facing a crisis that had been created when the catchword Europe was replaced by a discussion of the real economic and political problems of international cooperation. The crisis went so far that a number of European politicians regarded Strasbourg as a matter already settled, that at best might be capable of solving a few more cultural problems. The economic unity of Europe was directed from the of Marshall Plan office in Paris, and security questions were at all events left to the Atlantic Alliance.

Sebastian Bukow Philosophische Fakultät III Institut für Sozialwissenschaften Lehrbereich Innenpolitik der BRD Unter den Linden 6 10099 Berlin [email protected] Internal security and the fight against terrorism in Germany Nearly periodically the topic of internal security appears on the public agenda of the Federal Re- public. Election Campaigns are held and elections have been won with the promise of more security [cp. 30, p. 13; 33, p. 10; 21]. The subjective feeling of a lack of security in different dimensions of life is omnipresent. The latest security- and monitoring-acts interfere deeply – and at the same time nearly unnoticed – with the daily life of every single citizen. The debate on crime and internal secu- rity is dominated by very emotional and ideological-normative arguments [cp. 18, p. 151]. Objec- tive arguments and evaluations of proportionality are hard to find. I. The German understanding of “Internal security” and its his- torical roots The term “Innere Sicherheit” – internal security – appeared for the first time in the 1960s. From then onwards it has always played an important role in political discussions. Since 1969 the Federal Ministry of the interior periodically published a report on „Innere Sicherheit“ (for the last time in 1994). Since then the term has been established in the political and administrational language. In 1972 the policy of internal security became the quasi status of law by the introduction of the “Schwerpunktprogramm Innere Sicherheit” (programme of emphasis internal security) [25, p.

In it, we put forward a definition that has been quoted in most subsequent published work in the field: Peace Journalism is when editors and reporters make choices – of what to report and how to report it – that create opportunities for society at large to consider and value nonviolent responses to conflict. (Lynch and McGoldrick, 2005: 5) This formula is deliberately non-specific on various salient issues. It contains no com- mitment to the type of conflict being reported, for example. A significant cross-section of research in PJ has concerned itself with the business of war reporting – that is, how jour- nalists respond to the ‘hot phase’ of a violent conflict (such as the articles collected in Ross and Tehranian, 2008). Both Blasi (2009) and Mogekwu (2011) argue that this phase of ‘manifest’ conflict offers, if anything, a less propitious milieu for the exertion of jour- nalistic agency implied in the definition, than the previous phase where conflict is ‘latent’ (p.

    taz die tageszeitung montag 21. juni 2021 mit 8 seiten dossier zum überfall auf die sowjetunion vor 80 jahren Editorial m 22. Juni 1941 überfallen 3,2 Mil- lionen deutsche Soldaten auf ei- ner Frontlänge, die etwa der Ent- fernung Hamburg–Neapel ent- Aspricht, die Sowjetunion. Es ist der Auftakt des „Unternehmens Barbarossa“. Hundert- tausende sowjetische Soldaten geraten in den ersten Wochen in Gefangenschaft. Etwa drei Millionen werden bis 1945 in deutschem Gewahrsam umkommen. Im deutschen Gedächtnis ist dieser Tag aber kaum präsent. Zuvor hatten Hitler und Stalin 1939 ei- nen Pakt geschlossen, gemeinsam Polen überfallen und zielgerichtet Angehörige der Intelligenz, Offiziere, Frauen und Kin- der deportiert und ermordet. Für Hitler ist dieser Terror die Vorlage für einen nie dage- wesenen, ideologisch begründeten Krieg, dem in der Sowjetunion etwa 27 Millio- nen Menschen zum Opfer fielen – durch Erschießungen, Aushungern, Zwangsar- beit, Gaswagen, Kälte. Der Massenmord Erinnert euch! hatte viele Facetten. Welche Folgen hat dieser von Deutsch- land angezettelte Krieg heute? Wie be- stimmt er unser Verhältnis zu den Völkern Russlands, Weißrusslands, der Ukraine? Wie bestimmt er unser Verhältnis zu den Regierungen dieser Länder? Die Beziehun- gen Deutschlands zu Russland sind, nach der Euphorie der deutschen Einheit, zer- rüttet. Wladimir Putin versucht, ein neues Imperium zu formen und begründet seine Pläne mit Rückgriff auf 1941, dass man den „westlichen Partnern“ nie ganz trauen dürfe und auf Angriffe der Nato vorberei- tet sein müsse. Und mit dem Verweis auf „ausländische Agenten“ erstickt er jeden Anflug von Opposition. Stärker noch hat sein belarussischer Vasall Alexander Luka- schenko den Faschismus-Begriff für seine Diktatur instrumentalisiert.
