The Honorable Robert Joseph America in the Obama years a 4-hour television history for the BBC Our Method Our unit, headed by Norma Percy, has evolved a distinctive style that makes history come alive. It depends on first-hand accounts from key participants. AMERICA IN THE OBAMA YEARS, a series of 4 one-hour programmes, will follow our usual pattern Choose the turning points and examine them in detail Give the principals the chance to tell their own part in the story No interrogation and no pundits Seek objectivity by including all sides Film only after months of research A BBC policy statement (1995) called this “a new genre of documentary which retells momentous events with meticulous objectivity, the principal actors recording their version of what happened. The narratives that emerge from THE DEATH OF YUGOSLAVIA, THE SECOND RUSSIAN REVOLUTION and others are revelations.” “The Rolls-Royce of documentary makers” – The Wall Street Journal Series Producer: Norma Percy Executive Producers: Brian Lapping and Paul Mitchell Producer/Directors: Delphine Jaudeau and Sarah Wallis THE IRAQ WAR (2013) is the most recent of these series. It was broadcast on the BBC in May 2013, as a two-hour special AMERICA VS IRAQ on the National Geographic Channel, and in France as IRAK, DANS LES COULISSES D’UNE GUERRE on September 25 2013. The London Times said of the BBC series: “TV is rarely as gripping, informed and important as this.” Click on the links below to view the three programmes in the BBC series: Episodes 1: Regime Change 2: After the Fall 3: It's Hell, Mr. President THE 2nd RUSSIAN REVOLUTION (1991). The first of our television histories, 8 hours for the BBC and the Discovery Channel, was seen in 40 countries, including the Soviet Union. For the first time the leading figures, including Boris Yeltsin and Mikhail Gorbachev, told the inside story of the revolution that destroyed Communism. The Royal Television Society’s award citation called it “one of the most dazzling journalistic enterprises of this year, or any other.” Twenty years later we returned to Moscow for its sequel, PUTIN, RUSSIA & THE WEST (2012). This time it was Putin’s top colleagues - and the Western statesmen who clashed with him – who told the inside story of their dealings with Russia’s leader. “What sets this series apart is the sheer quality. The interviews and footage would be hard to better. From Colin Powell to Condoleezza Rice to Putin himself … major players are here, on camera – and in surprisingly confessional mode.” (The Times) “Everybody who was anybody has given interviews. The access to politicians, including Putin, is remarkable, and it has all been constructed with a bespoke care and authority.” (AA Gill, The Sunday Times.) The PUTIN series was broadcast on the BBC, National Geographic channel, in Europe, Australia, Japan – and even on The Russian Network NTV. IRAN & THE WEST (2009) told the story of 30 years of troubled relations from Ayatollah Khomeini’s revolution through the Ahmadinejad presidency – with rare interviews from Iran’s leaders as well as top Americans. The series won 10 major awards, including the Grierson British Documentary Trust award for best television series, the Royal Television Society, a Peabody, and was the first TV documentary to win the Orwell prize. “The jury feels this is political history made accessible and journalism of the highest quality. Ambitious, compelling and full of revelation, Percy in her inimitable style, tells the inside story through the perspective of two Iranian ex-presidents, Mohammad Khatami and Hashemi Rafsanjani, two founders of Iran’s Revolutionary Guard and leading westerners including President Jimmy Carter”. (One World award citation.) THE DEATH OF YUGOSLAVIA (1995/6), a six-part series in which Slobodan Milosevic, the other Yugoslav presidents and 60 of their generals, ministers, and rivals each told their part in how he rose to power and gave the world the term ‘ethnic cleansing’. Time Out chose this series as one of the ten best television series of the 20th century: “the series that rewrote the rules on how to cover wars and political history”. It was broadcast all over the world. The series won 16 top awards – including a BAFTA, The Royal Television Society’s Judges Award, a Peabody and the highest honour in US American tv journalism, the rarely given duPont Gold Baton from Columbia University. Re-broadcast in dozens of countries in the Kosovo war, it was used to train diplomats bound for the Balkans. Its sequel, THE FALL OF MILOSEVIC (2003), has President Clinton, Prime Minister Blair, President Chirac, their ministers and generals – and President Milosevic’s generals and advisers (including his wife Mira) – telling the story of the Kosovo war and the events that brought Milosevic to The Hague in three 90 minute programmes. It was broadcast on the BBC and the Discovery Channel. In ELUSIVE PEACE: Israel & the Arabs (2005) President Clinton, Israeli Prime Ministers Sharon and Barak, Yasser Arafat, intelligence chiefs and advisers – and those behind the suicide bombs and assassinations – describe what happened behind closed doors as peace talks gave way to the violence of the intifada. The series was broadcast by the BBC, PBS in America, ARTE in France and Germany, ABC Australia and others, including Al-Jazeera. It won our unit its third Alfred I. duPont award from Columbia University’s School of Journalism; and the Royal Television Society named it “Programme of the Year.” THE 50 YEARS WAR (1998) a six-part series was our look at Israel and the Arabs, broadcast in both Israel and on MBC throughout the Arab world and repeated often. AVENGING TERROR was broadcast in 23 countries to mark the first anniversary of 9/11. President Putin, Prime Minister Blair, Chancellor Schroeder, President Musharraf and President Bush’s Cabinet members all still in office described how they put together the coalition to fight the Afghanistan war. The series won among others Britain’s top prize for international current affairs journalism from the Royal Television Society. ENDGAME IN IRELAND (BBC 2001, PBS 2002) had Bill Clinton, Tony Blair, six other British and Irish Prime Ministers as well as key Northern Ireland politicians – and many of the gunmen - telling the story of the fight for peace. It won our fourth Peabody, and is often used to teach conflict resolution. PLAYING THE CHINA CARD (1999) won another US Peabody award for, “a behind-the-scenes glimpse into Nixon’s overture to China that’s like the best political novel.” WATERGATE (1994) interviewed President Nixon’s top aides HR Haldeman and John Erlichman - and the Watergate burglars - won the US Primetime Emmy and was the first foreign series to win Columbia University’s duPont award. THE WASHINGTON VERSION (1992 BBC, Discovery), Cheney, Scowcroft, Baker, Powell, the Vice President, and others in President Bush’s War Cabinet told the inside story of how they ran the 1991 Gulf War. TELEVISION Talking War, Tete-a-Tete By TUNKU VARADARAJAN Campaign Against Terror (Sunday 8th September 2002, 9-11 p.m. EDT) On PBS (check local listings) How very often does one wish, as politicians make decisions of global import, that one could sit down with them, tête-à-tête, and get them to speak plainly of every "why," "why not" and "wherefore." In the last year, such fanciful living-room guests might have included President Bush of course, as well as Colin Powell, Donald Rumsfeld, Condoleezza Rice, Tony Blair, Vladimir Putin, Gen. Pervez Musharraf (the Pakistani dictator), Hamid Karzai (the Afghan president) and a variety of others. But because the logistics of such a series of conversations might prove, shall we say, a tad taxing for the ordinary individual, may I suggest an alternative? It is to watch "Campaign Against Terror," a "Frontline" film produced by Brook Lapping, the British company that is the acme, the Rolls-Royce, of documentary makers. The film, a rich concentrate of information and insights, should not be missed by those who'd like a little more from their pols than soundbites at press conferences. Granted Mr. Bush isn't one of the talking heads - a pity, that, for one would have learned so much by watching him in an Straight talk about the Afghan campaign on 'Frontline' armchair, detached from that public gaze that makes him so angular, so self-conscious. But there is Mr. Powell, smooth and laid-back, perhaps secure that he will not be contradicted on film. .

  • The Political in Bosnia and Herzegovina
    Hunger & Fury: The Political in Bosnia and Herzegovina Jasmin Mujanović A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfilment of the Re- quirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in Political Science York University Toronto, ON May 2016 © Jasmin Mujanović, 2016 Abstract This text is an attempt to (re)approach the process of political and social transfor- mation in Bosnia-Herzegovina (BiH) over the past century and a half through the prism of popular agency. The primary research question of this dissertation asks why given nearly uni- formly catastrophic social indicators across virtually all socio-economic categories there are so few instances of overt popular dissatisfaction (e.g. protests and/or energetic voter turnout) with the prevailing political order in BiH? In addressing this question through an analysis that straddles political theory, international relations, and political economy literatures I focus on the role played by the specific local variant(s) of the nation-state form in essentially depoliti- cizing the majority of the population in this polity. My central argument is that rather than creating the conditions for rational-legal public administration and multi-party competition, the state in BiH has historically served to deny political agency to would-be citizens. The state in BiH has actively sought to eliminate civil society, in other words, and that therefore the de- fining political and social crises in contemporary BiH must be understood in the context of nearly two centuries of this particular and peculiar state (and nation) formation process. I ar- gue that the historic evolution of the BiH polity has been characterized by a form of elastic authoritarianism; the process of seemingly persistent ideological mutation contrasted by static political and economic patterns.

When Raúl could get a word in he said ruefully: “I thought I was listening to my brother!” Then he proceeded to talk for 25 minutes. This phone call was one of the many critical turning points in the tortured relationship between Cuba and the rest of the world. For more than half a century, Fidel Castro’s

  • Why Documentaries Matter Recognised As an Innovative Cultural Form
    RISJ CHALLENGES CHALLENGES Documentaries have for many decades inhabited the schedules of public Why Documentaries Matter Why broadcasters. They have chronicled the lives and institutions of western democracies. In the past two decades, however, documentaries have become Why Documentaries Matter recognised as an innovative cultural form. Instead of being exclusively funded by television channels, documentaries receive money from a number of sources, including film funds, private investors and foundations. Rather than observing, documentaries are now thought capable of changing the world. Is this what they really do? How do we define a documentary? What does it mean to be the ‘author’ of a film? Nick Fraser has been editor of the BBC’s Storyville series since 1997; here he looks at the history of documentaries, showing how definitions of documentaries have changed – and how fragile is their funding. If we want good documentaries, he concludes, we have to find ways of encouraging their creators. “Nick Fraser writes about documentaries with unique authority. Not only has he made some good ’uns, he has commissioned more than practically anyone else on earth (for the BBC’s Storyville) and - as this book shows - he Nick Fraser has watched docs from their earliest days. His ideas on what the growth of the web and the decline of public service broadcasters mean for doc-makers are informed, imaginative and challenging.” Brian Lapping Chairman and Executive Producer, Brook Lapping “The rise of documentaries over the past two decades owes more to Nick Fraser than to any other single person. For so many of us who make non-fiction films, Nick’s peerless brand of tough love and mischievous curiosity have inspired us to aim higher as we try to promote greater understanding of the major events and issues of our time.” Eugene Jarecki Documentary film maker “This expert lament is beautifully written.

The purpose of this research is to determine patterns, if any, in existing and nonexistent dialogue in regards to past memories of childhood interrupted by war, how those memories affect personal identity and current views on the social, political, and economic conditions of BiH, and future outlook with particular attention focused on reconciliation. What I will be presenting today is related specifically to the first section regarding memory, but these themes, patterns, and clips are part of a larger and ongoing untitled “Bosnia Project,” in which post-conflict development is given particular focus.

Multiparty elections were held in 1990 across republics, and Slovenia and Croatia declared independence in 1991, shortly followed by the more ethnically mixed and geographically more vulnerable Bosnia and Herzegovina in March 1992.
