M.A. March 2006. Communication Studies History and Development of the Communication Regulatory Agency in Bosnia and Herzegovina 1998 – 2005 (247 pp.) Director of Thesis: Gregory Newton During the war against Bosnia and Herzegovina (B&H) over 250,000 people were killed, and countless others were injured and lost loved ones. Almost half of the B&H population was forced from their homes. The ethnic map of the country was changed drastically and overall damage was estimated at US $100 billion. Experts agree that misuse of the media was largely responsible for the events that triggered the war and kept it going despite all attempts at peace. This study examines and follows the efforts of the international community to regulate the broadcast media environment in postwar B&H. One of the greatest challenges for the international community in B&H was the elimination of hate language in the media. There was constant resistance from the local ethnocentric political parties in the establishment of the independent media regulatory body and implementation of new standards.

    The Cultural Significance of Web-Based Exchange Practices Author Fletcher, Gordon Scott Published 2006 Thesis Type Thesis (PhD Doctorate) School School of Arts, Media and Culture DOI https://doi.org/10.25904/1912/2111 Copyright Statement The author owns the copyright in this thesis, unless stated otherwise. Downloaded from http://hdl.handle.net/10072/365388 Griffith Research Online https://research-repository.griffith.edu.au The Cultural Significance of Web-based Exchange Practices Gordon Scott Fletcher B.A. (Hons) Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Arts, Media and Culture Faculty of Arts Griffith University September 2004 2 Abstract This thesis considers the cultural significance of Web-based exchange practices among the participants in contemporary western mainstream culture. The thesis argues that analysis of these practices shows how this culture is consumption oriented, event-driven and media obsessed. Initially, this argument is developed from a critical, hermeneutic, relativist and interpretive assessment that draws upon the works of authors such as Baudrillard and De Bord and other critiques of contemporary ‘digital culture’. The empirical part of the thesis then examines the array of popular search terms used on the World Wide Web over a period of 16 months from September 2001 to February 2003. Taxanomic classification of these search terms reveals the limited range of virtual and physical artefacts that are sought by the users of Web search engines. While nineteen hundred individual artefacts occur in the array of search terms, these can classified into a relatively small group of higher order categories. Critical analysis of these higher order categories reveals six cultural traits that predominant in the apparently wide array of search terms; freeness, participation, do-it-yourself/customisation, anonymity/privacy, perversion and information richness.

  • Looking Again: Violence, Photography, Spectatorship, and Conflict Images of Children
    School of Media, Culture and Creative Arts Looking Again: Violence, Photography, Spectatorship, and Conflict Images of Children Christopher Dennis Lewis This thesis is presented for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Of Curtin University May 2016 Declaration To the best of my knowledge and belief this thesis contains no material previously published by any other person except where due acknowledgment has been made. This thesis contains no material which has been accepted for the award of any other degree or diploma in any university. Human Ethics (For projects involving human participants/tissue, etc) The research presented and reported in this thesis was conducted in accordance with the National Health and Medical Research Council National Statement on Ethical Conduct in Human Research (2007) – updated March 2014. The proposed research study received human research ethics approval from the Curtin University Human Research Ethics Committee (EC00262), Approval Number MCCA−18−12. Signature: …………………………………………. 24 May, 2016 Date: ………………………... i ii Abstract This thesis examines questions of photographic violence, ethics and spectatorship. It focuses these questions through images of children in situations of war and conflict, ranging from one of the earliest instances of ‘disaster photography’, Willoughby Hooper’s images of the Madras famine of 1877, to the picturing of the drowned refugee toddler, Aylan Kurdi, on the shores of the Mediterranean in 2015. The thesis begins by engaging with the critique of photography as a form of symbolic violence, articulated most notably by Susan Sontag. It seeks a point of departure from Sontag’s emphasis on figure of the photographer by drawing on Ariella Azoulay’s notion of the spectator as an active agent in making and remaking a photograph’s meaning.

  • Television News Broadcasting and Journalism in Turkey
    TELEVISION NEWS BROADCASTING AND JOURNALISM IN TURKEY The Impact of Political, Economic and Socio-Cultural Change in the 1990s Melek ATABEY Submitted in Accordance with the Requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the University of London Department of Culture, Communication and Societies Institute of Education University of London July 1998 2 ABSTRACT The purpose of this study is to investigate current issues in Turkish journalism with specific reference to television news broadcasting. It does so by combining two main theoretical approaches to the study of news production: the political economy perspective and the culturalist view, both of which are critically explored as part of the research. In collecting data, various methods were employed; interviews with journalists, and quantitative and qualitative analysis of news programmes. The study consists of two main parts. At the macro level, a review of recent changes in broadcast media around the world, and the main theoretical perspectives on news and journalism with regard to Turkish television news are followed by the examination of the historical development of journalism, and its present socio-economic and professional context in Turkey. At the micro level, the study focuses on television news. A general overview of news broadcasting in Turkey is provided to explore the significance of television news for the Turkish public. The remaining chapters of the study analyse coverage of domestic political and economic events, and foreign news stories on six main television stations, with regard to their quantitative and qualitative content. The findings indicated that the commercial, institutional, and ideological stance of television channels influenced the content of news stories.

  • Nakedness and Movement Culture
    PHYSICAL CULTURE AND SPORT STUDIES AND RESEARCH DOI: 10.2478/v10141-009-0036-7 Nakedness and Movement Culture Ivo Jirásek Palacký University in Olomouc, Czech Republic ABSTRACT The paper deals with a topic which is not very frequent in kinanthropology; it concerns the phenomenon of the naked body in the environment of movement culture. Within the individual aspects of this cultural subsystem (sport, movement education, movement recreation, movement therapy, and movement art), it points out a variety of meanings and contexts adding sense to nudity on a continuum ranging from naturalness and functionality through erotization and sexualization to pornoization of particularly sport environment. The author prefers a functional naturalness of nudity and rejects the instrumentalization and changing human body into a thing and, thus, exceeding the characteristics of the sphere of movement culture. KEYWORDS nudity, movement culture, sexualization of sport, pornoization of sport, naturalness Cultural dimension of nudity An undressed human body is given by nature (humans are born naked), however, it is evident that the meaning and purpose of nudity is determined exclusively by the cultural and social environment (shame is realized along with the process of socialization and education of an individual), by a set of values ascribed to nudity in a given cultural background. In this sense, the body without any clothing can be a sign of religiosity and spirituality. The Marshall in Mesopotamia, for example, had to be physically flawless when he performed religious rituals and contacted God naked (Heller 1988). Within Christianity, we can observe both a certain distance from physical nudity and its emphasis, as in the sect of the Adamites, in reports related to the phenomenon of witchcraft and inquisition, but also in the interconnection of mythical and erotic images (the issue of the relationship of religious imagination regarding nudity and sexuality in Colonial Mexico in the 17 th century is deeply explored by Tortorici, 2007).
