Berlin, 31.10.2019 Débora Maria Moura Medeiros 4 Acknowledgments Over the years that I dedicated to this PhD thesis, I had the luck of encountering many inspir- ing people along the way. This endeavor would not have been possible without their generous support. Good mentorship is one of the greatest gifts a young scholar could possibly get. In this sense, I thank my supervisor, Margreth Lünenborg, for believing in me and helping me grow as an academic. Our meetings always ended with me leaving much more motivated to take on new challenges than when I arrived. I would also like to thank my second supervisor, Christoph Raetzsch, for his invaluable feedback, especially in the last phases of my work. By kindly offering to read some of my initial drafts, he helped me bring out what was really distinctive aboutmy thesis and think about the big picture in terms of scholarship. I would also like to thank Renata Campos Motta, Saskia Sell and Ulrike Klinger for kindly agreeing to participate in my defense as part of the evaluating commission. It was a remarkable experience for me to be able to discuss my work in depth with five excellent scholars from the fields my research touched upon. Thank you for your engaging questions and remarks. For taking the time to share with me their experiences during the protests in 2013 and 2014, I thank the members of Nigéria and Na Rua, as well as their contributors. I hope this thesis brings some helpful insights to the very important work they have been doing throughout the years. Mariella Bastian was among the very first friends I made in Germany, and our friendship has not only enriched my life, but has also been incredibly important in my academic journey. An excellent communication scholar and Brazil expert herself, Mariella has given me unique feedback every step of the way. I would like to thank her whole family as well, for always welcoming me in their home. I really appreciated having the chance to regularly meet my fellow PhD students at our colloquium at the institute. Through our in-depth discussions of each other’s work, Ifeelwe learned a lot, not only about our respective research objects, but also about supporting each other in this sometimes seemingly never-ending journey. I would like to thank all participants throughout the years, in particular Claudia Töpper, Eva Salomon, Irina Kharuk, María Martínez, Saskia Sell and Shari Adlung, for their helpful comments throughout the development of this project. For being a great colleague and helping me learn so much about the work as a post- doc, I would like to thank Laura Sūna. For her friendly and competent support with the many bureaucratic aspects around being an international student in Germany, I would like to say a big thank you to Claudia Hübner. I would like to thank the students who attended the seminars Journalism and Activism and 5 6 Media Activism and Social Movements for sharing with me their perspectives on the interaction between media and activism during our many interesting discussions in class. A big thank you to my co-lecturer María Martínez for the fruitful work on our seminar Media Activism and Social Movements. The scholars at MediaClimate welcomed me with open arms into their lively, productive re- search group many years ago, for which I am very thankful. It has been an incredible experience to get to know and work with researchers from all over the world in such a friendly atmosphere. In the past years, I had the opportunity of attending various interesting conferences that helped me further develop my work. In particular, I would like to thank the organizers and par- ticipants of the workshop “Acting on Media”, which took place in Bremen in 2016, especially my respondent Hilde Stephansen for her thoughtful feedback. I would also like to thank the organizers and participants of the summer school “Media in Political Participation and Mobi- lization” for the very productive week in Florence in 2017, in which I could exchange insights with other researchers focusing on the interaction between media and social movements. I am particularly thankful to Anne Kaun, Jack Bratich and Finn Brunton for helping me brainstorm creative solutions to some of my research dilemmas during the summer school. A big thank you goes to Jayson Harsin and his students at the American University of Paris for the invitation to present my work at their class and for the very interesting questions that followed. I would also like to express my gratitude to the Konrad Adenauer Foundation (KAS) for financially supporting my academic work. A special thank you goes to Berthold Gees andNils Abraham for being the friendly bridges between me as a scholarship holder and the foundation as an institution. Thank you to my dear friend Laura Nascimento for the many times she corrected my scholarship reports to the foundation. I made great friends during my time at the KAS and would like to thank Eduardo Gresse, Mariana Matos, Olga Debryanskaya and Sina Meissgeier for sticking around and sharing with me their paths as young scholars over the years. I would also like to thank Herbert Voß for his patient support with my many LaTeX-related questions after I attended one of his courses at theFU. I would like to thank Agostinho Gósson (in memoriam), Gilmar de Carvalho, Henrique Bel- trão, Inês Vitorino, Márcia Vidal, Nonato Lima, Riverson Rios and Ronaldo Salgado, my pro- fessors at the Federal University of Ceará, for their thoughtful support and encouragement as I discovered my passion for teaching and researching as a BA student. Vielen Dank also to Rogéria Pereira, my very first German teacher at the university’s language course who always sharedher experience as a student in Germany herself and encouraged me to apply for scholarships. Thank you to the many dear friends that have been with me since my time at the Federal University of Ceará (some of them even way before then!) and who have stayed in my life and kept in touch despite geographical distance. A huge thank you to my families in Brazil and in Germany, for their love and endless support. Finally, thank you to my partner Wilma for joyfully reminding me that there is more to life than work, yet doing overtime with me to improve the design of this thesis’ graphics. Abstract In this study, I propose the concept of engaged journalism, focusing on a specific kind of al- ternative media: unlike some types of community or alternative journalism, engaged journalism is often done predominantly by media professionals. However, these practitioners pursue other goals than their colleagues working at commercial or state media outlets and are motivated by a strong media criticism. Based on Shove, Pantzar, and Watson’s (2012) analysis of how practices link elements en- compassing material, meaning and competence, I regard engaged journalists as possessing the necessary materials and competences to perform professional journalism while, at the same time, attributing a different meaning to their practices. Engaged journalists seek to offer an alternative to the objectivity standard that marks traditional journalism and to actively counter traditional journalism’s shortcomings, such as elite-based source selection. They also see their coverage as a forum for various social movements, constituting a specific form of counter public sphere. I developed this concept as part of the answer to my two research questions. For research question (RQ 1), I ask: How do actors involved in the alternative coverage of protests adapt media practices to changes in the sociopolitical context? I answered RQ 1 by drawing from grounded theory’s methodological resources, in particular expert interviews, in order to make patterns and processes in my specific case visible through my analysis, generating a model that can thenbe applied to similar cases. In the current study, I applied this approach to the case of the protests that took place in the city of Fortaleza, Brazil, during 2013 and 2014. They were part of a broader, national context of protests against excessive government spending in the buildup for the 2014 FIFA World Cup. Two media collectives, Nigéria and Na Rua, were the main actors responsible for the alternative coverage of the protests in Fortaleza. Their members and the network around them were my interview partners. Complementing this data, I performed a qualitative content analysis of the alternative cov- erage both collectives published online, guided by the following research question (RQ2): How do shifts in actors’ media production during the alternative coverage of protests relate tothe adaptation of media practices in a changing sociopolitical context? The multi-layered qualitative content analysis resulted in a model of categories that describes the material in terms of formats used, recurring elements of representation and argumentation. At the intersection between challenges to journalism and media activism, engaged journal- ism makes a contribution to the field by conceptualizing the activities of alternative journalists that put their professional knowledge and skills at the service of social movements.

  • Heberlein, Thomas A. 2017. Sweden
    Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, March 5, 2017 Sweden is safe Since President Donald Trump called attention to violence in Sweden, we have had American journalists show up here. One, Tim Pool — funded in part by right-wing editor Paul Joseph Watson who tweeted “Any journalist claiming Sweden is safe; I will pay for travel costs & accommodation for you to stay in crime ridden migrant suburbs of Malmo” — visited Rosengård, Malmö’s toughest immigrant area. He was followed by Swedish reporters and found what was no surprise to me, an American living in Sweden: “If this is the worst Malmö can offer never come to Chicago.” Pool claimed Chicago had about 750 murders last year. All of Sweden, which has three times the population of Chicago, had 112 murders in 2015 (the last year for which statistics are available). Malmö, with a population of 330,000, had 12 murders in 2016. Madison, with a population of 243,000 had nine. So per capita, you are about as safe in Malmö as in Madison. Pool also said after a few hours in Rosengård: “For anyone worried about violence in Malmö and worried that he will be robbed or attacked in Rosengård is ‘löliga’ (ridiculous).” On TV news, he was shown walking in the community and reported it was boring and the only danger he felt was from the ice on the sidewalks. Sweden, I admit, is not a perfect society: It does have problems keeping ice off the sidewalks, and thousands are injured in falls every year.

    THE PORTRAYAL OF MARIJUANA ON VICE.COM DOCUMENTARIES The Graduate School of Economics and Social Sciences of İhsan Doğramacı Bilkent University by GÖKÇE ÖZSU In Partial Fulfillment of Requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS THE DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNICATION AND DESIGN İHSAN DOĞRAMACI BİLKENT UNIVERSITY ANKARA August 2017 Scanned by CamScanner ABSTRACT THE PORTRAYAL OF MARIJUANA ON VICE.COM DOCUMENTARIES Özsu, Gökçe MA, The Department of Communication and Design Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Bülent Çaplı August 2017 This thesis aims to examine the representational attitude of vice.com (or VICE) documentaries covering marijuana, in the context of normalization. In this respect, this thesis mainly descriptively analyses three VICE documentaries covering marijuana in the setting of recreation, medicine and industry. VICE is a United States based media outlet which uses hybrid form of journalism combining conventional form of media operations and new media techniques. Normalization is a sociological concept for describing the the scale of social acceptance as a norm which was disseminated from the iii margins of the society towards mainstream scale. To implement descriptive analysis on vice.com documentaries, normalization and drug representation in the United States media has been evaluated in the socio-historical setting, and examined. As a major finding, even though vice.com documentaries represent marijuana as normal, the normative references of normalization of marijuana is not clear. In this respect, in the conclusion, the determiners and normative background of normalization of marijuana are tried to be discussed.

  • Documenting Protest and Police: Occupy Wall Street and the (R)Evolution of Digital Mobile Video
    Documenting Protest and Police: Occupy Wall Street and the (R)evolution of Digital Mobile Video BEN LENZNER, The University of Waikato ABSTRACT The importance of mobile phone video technology was highlighted in September 2011, when the Occupy Wall Street movement transformed Zuccotti Park in New York into a public space for protest. For those not present, the occupation was witnessed and interpreted through the reporting of traditional media – local and global news organizations, the Internet, radio and printed media. Yet most vitally, Occupy Wall Street was characterized by a new form of representation captured through the camera phone lenses of localized practitioners experimenting and rapidly realizing, often in real time, the value of mobile phone cameras within the new media ecology of social activism. Perhaps nowhere are the implications of recent digital video technologies more influential than in the synthesis of activist movements, citizen journalism, documentary practices and emerging forms of new media, such as the live streaming application – Ustream. Analyzing the practices that matured during the Occupy movement through the lens of Manuel DeLanda’s interpretation of assemblage theory this article offers a critical reflection of the technological, cultural and networked diagram that was present at the time, including but not limited to access to available technologies (the proliferation of cameras, web technologies and protocols and other telecommunications standards and the networks they form). I examine the video practice of Tim Pool, a practitioner whose evolution from citizen to citizen journalist to journalist reflects the complexity, spontaneity and often contiguity of assemblage. Furthermore, using assemblage as a key-mapping device, this article explores the emerging practices and networks birthed, reinforced and reworked during the Occupy Wall Street movement and throughout New York City in the months after the Zuccotti Park encampment dispersed.

  • Aerial Drone Photography and Political Protest
    From a Bird’s Eye Perspective: Aerial Drone Photography and Political Protest. А Case Study of the Bulgarian #resign Movement 2013 HENRIKE SCHMIDT Humboldt-Universität Berlin Abstract: Aerial drone photography has become popular throughout the first decade of the 21st century, with the technology getting ever more affordable and easy-to-use. It is employed for a variety of goals, ranging from military and surveillance tasks to the so-called drone and citizen journalism, from sports coverage to artistic usages and even product delivery. In the present article I analyse the usage of aerial drone photography as a means to monitor, docu- ment and survey political protest movements, taking the Bulgarian #resign movement as a case study. After a short sketch of the Bulgarian protest movement of the year 2013, which has received less coverage in European and international media and academia than the com- parable events in Russia 2011-2012 or the Euro-Maidan in Ukraine 2013-2014, the case study explores a sample of protest videos, focusing on their artistic composition which combines a “bird’s perspective” with the specific photographic technique of the fisheye lens distortion ef- fect. My argument is, that aerial drone photography as a means to document protest move- ments evolves from a pragmatic tool of alternative informational footage to an instrument for shaping visually the self-perception of the protesting crowd. Keywords: aerial drone photography, protest movements, citizen journalism, social media, sousveillance, Bulgarian #resign movement n June 2013 an unmanned flying object unsettled participants of an anti-government pro- I test rally in Bulgaria’s capital Sofia by circling above their heads.1 The surprised protesters 1 This paper was first presented at the International workshop on ‘Digital Creativity in Times of Crisis: Bulgari- an Networked Culture in Global Contexts’, held in November 2013 at the Centre for Advanced Study in Sofia, which generously supported the event.
