New book out : Insights on Peace and Conflict Reporting

This edited collection in the Routledge Insights on Journalism series explores the possibilities and challenges involved in contemporary reporting of peace and conflict. 

Featuring 16 expert contributing authors, the collection maps the field of peace and conflict reporting in a digital world, in a context where the financial prospects of the news industry are challenged and professional authority, credibility, and autonomy are decaying. The contributors, ranging from prominent scholars to the Head of Newsgathering at the BBC, discuss a diverse range of key case studies including the role of Bellingcat in conflict journalism, war and peace journalism in Bangladesh, visual storytelling in conflict zones, and rampant cyber-misogyny confronting women journalists in Finland, India, Philippines, and South Africa. Bringing together theory and practice, the collection offers an in-depth examination of the changes taking place in the working practices of journalists, as ongoing, strategic assaults against them increase.

The anthology is edited by Kristin Skare Orgeret, featuring Simon Cottle, Rune Ottosen, Stig-Arne Nohrstedt, Winston Mano, Charlotte Ntulume, Kajalie Shehreen Islam, Mubashar Hasan, Saumava Mitra, Sara Creta, Stephanie McDonald, Bruce Mutsvairo, Glenda Cooper, Julie Posetti, Jackie Harrison, Stefanie Pukallus and Jonathan Munro.
