  • Onderzoeksrapport Vrouwen in De Media 2009
    Onderzoeksrapport Vrouwen in de Media 2009 Janneke Boer (deel 1) Jolanda van Henningen (deel 2) Met reacties van o.a.: Birgit Donker Marga Miltenburg Neelie Kroes Pia Dijkstra Rita Verdonk Samira Bouchibti november 2009 Onderzoek Vrouwenindemedia.nl 2009 1 Voorwoord Het éne onderzoek na het andere brengt naar voren wat eigenlijk ook al met het blote oog te zien is. In de media komen vrouwen minder vaak aan het woord dan mannen. De Nederlandse bevolking bestaat voor 50,5 procent uit vrouwen. In de media is slechts één op de vijf mensen aan het woord een vrouw. In 2000 zei toenmalige staatssecretaris van Cultuur Rick van der Ploeg het al in de Volkskrant: “De publieke omroep moet een betere afspiegeling vormen van de Nederlandse samenleving”. Helaas is er ook na 2000 weinig veranderd. Bij de publieke omroep en bij de andere media lijkt de tijd stil te staan. Inderdaad, er zitten meer mannen in de top van het Nederlandse zakenleven, maar laten we nou eerlijk zijn. Ook als het gaat om andere deskundigen waarbij er wel degelijk een gelijke verhouding is zijn het toch vaker de mannen die in de media aan het woord zijn. Laten we onszelf niet langer voor de gek houden en kijken naar het potentieel aan vrouwelijke deskundigheid. Scheef of niet? Ik heb van redacties wel eens de vraag gekregen of die verhouding wel echt zo scheef is als ik altijd verkondig. Ook zijn er terecht vragen gesteld of het wel de schuld van de media is dat er geen realistische afspiegeling van de maatschappij wordt getoond.

Het onderzoek is een initiatief van PvdA-Tweede Kamerlid Mari⁄tte Hamer. Eerst was het CDA nog tegen het onderzoek, maar de christendemocraten willen het nu ook. Het parlementaire onderzoek zal zich onder meer richten op de basisvorming, het studiehuis, het vmbo en het nieuwe leren. Het moet duidelijk maken waardoor deze vernieuwingen, die de steun kregen van de politiek, tot ontevreden reacties leidden van voornamelijk leerkrachten, leerlingen en ouders. PvdA-Kamerlid Mari⁄tte Hamer kwam eind januari met haar voorstel voor het onderzoek. Het CDA voelde zich daar toen door overvallen en was in eerste instantie erg sceptisch. De christendemocraten hebben echter nu ook hun steun eraan gegeven, zodat het PvdA- initiatief een Kamermeerderheid heeft. Het is opmerkelijk dat juist de PvdA het initiatief heeft genomen om de onderwijsvernieuwingen te onderzoeken. Veel van die vernieuwingen zijn destijds ingevoerd door de PvdA-bewindslieden Tineke Netelenbos, Jacques W allage en wijlen Karin Adelmund. De resultaten van het onderzoek worden in het najaar verwacht. Debat in Over Onderwijs In het voorjaarsnummer van Over Onderwijs legt Mari⁄tte Hamer in de rubriek 'Het debat' uit waarom het onderzoek volgens haar nodig is. Tegenover haar staat rector Leon van Minderhout van de brede scholengemeenschap De W aerdenborch met vestigingen in het Overijsselse Holten en Goor.

  • Personalization of Political Newspaper Coverage: a Longitudinal Study in the Dutch Context Since 1950
    Personalization of political newspaper coverage: a longitudinal study in the Dutch context since 1950 Ellis Aizenberg, Wouter van Atteveldt, Chantal van Son, Franz-Xaver Geiger VU University, Amsterdam This study analyses whether personalization in Dutch political newspaper coverage has increased since 1950. In spite of the assumption that personalization increased over time in The Netherlands, earlier studies on this phenomenon in the Dutch context led to a scattered image. Through automatic and manual content analyses and regression analyses this study shows that personalization did increase in The Netherlands during the last century, the changes toward that increase however, occurred earlier on than expected at first. This study also shows that the focus of reporting on politics is increasingly put on the politician as an individual, the coverage in which these politicians are mentioned however became more substantive and politically relevant. Keywords: Personalization, content analysis, political news coverage, individualization, privatization Introduction When personalization occurs a focus is put on politicians and party leaders as individuals. The context of the news coverage in which they are mentioned becomes more private as their love lives, upbringing, hobbies and characteristics of personal nature seem increasingly thoroughly discussed. An article published in 1984 in the Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf forms a good example here, where a horse race betting event, which is attended by several ministers accompanied by their wives and girlfriends is carefully discussed1. Nowadays personalization is a much-discussed phenomenon in the field of political communication. It can simply be seen as: ‘a process in which the political weight of the individual actor in the political process increases 1 Ererondje (17 juli 1984).

  • The Dutch Debate on Enlargement
    Communicating Europe Manual: The Netherlands Information and contacts on the Dutch debate on the EU and enlargement to the Western Balkans Supported by the Strategic Programme Fund of the UK Foreign & Commonwealth Office 23 November 2009 www.esiweb.org 2 Communicating Europe: The Netherlands Manual ABOUT THIS MANUAL Who shapes the debate on the future of EU enlargement in The Netherlands today? This manual aims to provide an overview by introducing the key people and key institutions. It starts with a summary of core facts about the Netherlands. It also offers an overview of the policy debates in The Netherlands on the EU, on future enlargement and the Western Balkans. Space is also given to the media landscape; TV, radio and print media and the internet-based media. Any debate in a vibrant democracy is characterised by a range of views. Nonetheless, when it comes to Dutch views on EU enlargement, the people included in this manual are certainly among the most influential. This manual draws on detailed research carried out by ESI from 2005 to 2006 on enlargement fatigue in the Netherlands and on the Dutch debate on Turkey. Fresh research has also been carried out in 2009 especially for the Communicating Europe workshop co-sponsored by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, with the Robert Bosch Stiftung and the European Fund for the Balkans.
