Theorising Media and Conflict
Berghahn Books (Verlag)
978-1-78920-682-1 (ISBN)
Theorising Media and Conflict brings together anthropologists as well as media and communication scholars to collectively address the elusive and complex relationship between media and conflict. Through epistemological and methodological reflections and the analyses of various case studies from around the globe, this volume provides evidence for the co-constitutiveness of media and conflict and contributes to their consolidation as a distinct area of scholarship. Practitioners, policymakers, students and scholars who wish to understand the lived realities and dynamics of contemporary conflicts will find this book invaluable.
Philipp Budka is Research Associate and Lecturer in the Department of Social and Cultural Anthropology at the University of Vienna. He is the co-editor of Ritualisierung – Mediatisierung – Performance (Vienna University Press, 2019) and has published widely in peer-reviewed journals and edited volumes.
