Knowingly or unknowingly media has directly influenced on intensification of ethnic conflict which was the greatest calamity in the country inherited to a more than three decades history. At the end of 1970th decade, the newspaper became as the only media which is more familiar and which can heavily influence on public. The incident that the brutal murder of 13 military officers becoming victims of terrorists on 23rd of 1983 can be identified as a decisive turning point within the ethnic conflict among Sinhalese and Tamils.

  • Beach Management Conflict Case Study: Singer Island, Florida
    BEACH MANAGEMENT CONFLICT CASE STUDY: SINGER ISLAND, FLORIDA Location: Singer Island, City of Riviera Beach, Palm Beach County, Florida Singer Island is part of a peninsula located along the coast of southeast Florida that separates the Lake Worth Lagoon from the Atlantic Ocean (Figure 1). Singer Island is under the jurisdiction of the City of Riviera Beach and is bordered by John D. MacArthur Beach State Park to the north and the Town of Palm Beach Shores to the south (Figure 2). This approximately two-mile stretch of beachfront is home to some of the most valuable real estate in Florida and is heavily developed with high-rise condominiums and hotels. Figure 1. Locator map of Timeframe: 2006 through present Singer Island, FL. (Denoted by star symbol). Summary Like much of Florida’s densely developed beachfront, beach erosion has been an ongoing problem at Singer Island, becoming especially critical in the past ten years. The current conflict began in 2006 when Palm Beach County applied for a permit from the state to build a series of offshore breakwaters along Singer Island (Humiston & Moore Engineers 2006). Breakwaters are piles of rock installed just offshore to decrease wave energy and consequential erosion along the shoreline. After years of debate and revisions, the breakwater proposal was ultimately rejected by the Palm Beach County Board of County Commissioners in March 2011. Image: Google 2014 The rejection of the breakwater proposal Figure 2. Map of Singer Island, FL, outlined in yellow. came in the wake of major opposition from environmental advocacy groups, including the Palm Beach County Chapter of the Surfrider Foundation, Sea Turtle Conservancy, and Defenders of Wildlife.
