Special thanks goes to the following individuals for sharing their expertise during the Conference: Bettina Peters, Director of Development, the Thomson Foundation; Daniel Byron, International Senior Lawyers Project USA; Michael Unland, Senior Advisor, Office of the OSCE Representative on Freedom of the Media; Michael Karanicolas, Senior Legal Officer, Canadian Centre for Law and Democracy; and Sigurd Sorenson, International Senior Lawyers Project USA. A follow-up discussion was organized during the World Press Freedom Day event on 1 May 2014. The recommendations were also discussed during two multi-stakeholder consultative meetings on Freedom of Expression and Internet and on Freedom of Expression and National Legislation in November 2015. Revision: If readers wish to offer any corrections to or feedback on this assessment of the media sector in Mongolia, comments may be taken into account in a second version of this report. Should there be a second version, it will be published in an electronic format and made available on the websites of UNESCO, the Globe International Center and the Mongolian National Commission for UNESCO. The original version of the report is available on the following websites: www.unesco.org and www.globeinter.org.mn Foreword n September 2015, world leaders adopted the new 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, which includes a set of 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Freedom Iof expression, press freedom and the right to access information are fundamental rights as well as enablers of many of the goals relevant to the new Development Agenda. Progress in peace, democracy and development for individuals, communities and countries is driven by the free flow of information and ideas. UNESCO, as the only UN agency with a constitutional mandate to “promote the free flow of ideas by word and image,” works with its Member States to foster enabling environments for free, pluralistic and independent media. UNESCO’s approach to media development is both knowledge-driven and context-sensitive, and it takes into account the challenges and opportunities created by the rapidly changing media environment. This publication presents the findings of the media development assessment in Mongolia that began in 2012 to determine the state of the media in the country. The assessment was based on the UNESCO/IPDC Media Development Indicators (MDIs), an internationally recognized analytical tool used to provide detailed overviews of national media landscapes and related media development priorities. The assessment, the first in the North-East Asia region, was undertaken by UNESCO and Globe International Center, a Mongolian media development NGO based in Ulaanbaatar, in partnership with a network of organizations. Data was collected through a review of existing documents, including on-line sources; a questionnaire-based survey of media managers, journalism schools and journalists; consultations; and a national media conference attended by representatives of government bodies, media organizations, journalism schools, lawyers, civil society groups, the donor community, and international organizations. The report is structured around the following thematic areas, in line with UNESCO’s internationally-recognized MDI framework: 1) system of regulation conducive to freedom of expression, pluralism and diversity of the media; 2) plurality and diversity of media, a level economic playing field and transparency of ownership; 3) media as a platform for democratic discourse; 4) professional capacity building and supporting institutions that underpin freedom of expression, pluralism and diversity; and 5) infrastructural capacity to support independent and pluralistic media. 5 The publication provides a comprehensive overview of the progress made and challenges facing Mongolia’s communication and media sector, as well as a set of evidence-based recommendations to improve the media landscape across the country. As in other countries, the assessment is not a one-off activity but a continuous process, given constant changes in the media scene. It is our hope that the information and recommendations in this publication will be useful to the Government of Mongolia, local and international organizations as well as civil society groups working to promote freedom of expression and the development of the media and communication sector in the country.

Dr. Neal helped me realize a framework within which I could explore my interests, and Dr. Simonelli kept my spirits alive so I could nurse the project along. My concert-going partner in crime, cruisin’tobruce, also deserves my gratitude, sharing expenses and experiences with me all over the eastern seaboard as well as some mid-America excursions. She tolerated me well, right up until the last time I forgot the tickets. I also must recognize the persistent assistance I received from my pal and companion Zero, my Maine Coon cat, who spent hours hanging over my keyboard as I typed. I attribute all typos and errors to his help, and thank him for the opportunity to lay the blame at his paws. And lastly, my thanks and gratitude goes out to Mr. Bruce Frederick Springsteen, a man of heart and of conscience who constantly keeps me honest and aware that “it ain’t no sin to be glad you’re alive (Badlands).”

  • Media in Post-Communist Mongolia Challenges and Opportunities in the Democratization Process
    10.1515/nor-2017-0149 Nordicom Review 30 (2009) 2, pp. 19-33 Media in Post-Communist Mongolia Challenges and Opportunities in the Democratization Process Poul Erik Nielsen Abstract The introduction of a liberal media model built on freedom of expression, non-regulation, and free market in Post-Communist Mongolia has lead to a plethora of new media outlets. In a context of external pluralism, the media are key players in dramatic political, social, and cultural changes in Mongolian society. However, due to violations of media freedom, lack of ethical standards as well as market failures in a media market marred with clientelism, the Mongolian media have neither lived up to the ideals of liberal media theory nor been driving forces in the ongoing democratization process. Instead, private and public media, in an unholy alliance, appear more like a lapdog in the service of the political and financial establishment than like a watchdog. Keywords: Mongolia, post-communism, liberal media theory, democratization, media free- dom, and media institutions Introduction In many Post-Communist countries, as is the case in Mongolia, the media systems have changed dramatically from a totalitarian media system rigorously controlled by the state and the party to different forms of more or less liberal media systems supplemented with public broadcasting. These changes in the media landscapes are an integrated part of fundamental political, social, and cultural changes in the transition countries. The media’s role in the transition processes and specifically their role in the ongoing democ- ratization processes are both theoretically and empirically complex issues that can only be understood in a historical context.

I contend that secrets play a fundamental and influential role within a given gamespace in terms of the way they affect a videogame design and player experience. As such this paper will investigate the nature of secrets in videogames. I shall find where secrets exist in a game and how they function as moments of gameplay.
