经济危机时期英国的移民报道及其对中国的启示——从广州媒体报道非洲黑人说起

2009年7月15日广州黑人冲击派出所，以及随后网上对《东方天使》的参赛者“黑女孩”娄婧的一些讨论，使得黑人群体受到全国媒体乃至世界媒体的关注，境外媒体称“中国首次爆发了有关种族歧视的不同寻常的公开讨论”，“中国人对黑人抱有天真的种族主义”。与此同时，移民大国——英国国内关于移民的讨论也达到了白热化的程度，移民报道在文化与政治领域的重要性得到了前所未有的关注。通过分析经济危机时期英国媒体的移民报道策略、成因和危害，并与中国媒体的黑人报道做简单比较，以期为正在走向世界的中国传媒以启示。

THE NEW MEDIA AND OUR POLITICAL COMMUNICATION DISCONTENTS: DEMOCRATIZING CYBERSPACE

This article argues that the new interactive media have a 'vulnerable potential' to enhance public communications and enrich democracy, which can be realized only through appropriate policy support and imaginative institution building. After outlining the main shortcomings of the prevailing political communication system, certain elements of redemptive potential, inherent in distinctive features of the Internet, are identified. The policy implications of this analysis are then drawn for the public-service obligations of mainstream media, to ensure open access to new media platforms, and to create a 'civic commons' in cyberspace.

NEW MEDIA AND DISTANCE EDUCATION: AN EU-US PERSPECTIVE

This paper presents an overview of the development of new media in the secondary and higher education systems of the European Union (EU) and USA. A combination of driving forces in pedagogical thinking, technological progress and business models have raised new expectations for the wide-spread use of educational technology, such as by providing major market opportunities as in the adult training segment. Many public sector and private commercial initiatives for connecting schools to the Internet, first adopted in the USA, and then in member states of the EU, have met with marked success. Most of the secondary schools are, or are being, wired, if but to a limited extent. The diffusion of information and communication technologies (ICTs) in the EU schools is particularly rapid given their initially low penetration rate. If American organizations are indeed leading the development of online courses and programmes in the higher education sector, European universities have now realized the importance of investing in this field. However, for new media to significantly improve the educational process in the EU and in the USA, they must be embodied in the complex school or university environment, and be nurtured by new partnerships between business and the academy.     

传播政治经济学的学术脉络与人文关怀

传播政治经济学是传播学的重要研究流派之一,其学术发展与资本主义体系在全球范围内的建立、急剧扩张以及与之相抗争的社会运动的发展密切相关.这一学派不仅弥补了侧重行政导向与市场导向的美国主流传播研究之缺失,而且解构了主流传播研究的知识生产与社会权力关系.传播政治经济学对当前资本主义高度商业化、集中化、去管制化、国家化的传播制度与传播现象进行了深刻的批判,体现出全球传播政治经济学学者们在不同层面与场域所进行的超越资本主义的社会转型的各种努力.     

论地方电视媒体的媒介生态环境

地方电视媒体在央视、省级电视台以及境外电视机构的挤压下,其生存空间和媒介生态环境的现状都不容乐观。如何在激烈的市场经济的角逐中发挥出地方台应有的优势,获得更大的生存空间?它需要从改革组织机构、规划合理的人力资源和明确行业定位三方面来改善其低效的组织资源、落后的人力资源和封闭的政策资源等具有瓶颈性的媒介生态环境。     

时间产品:传媒经济学的价值基点

当人类习惯把大众传媒当作最主要的信息交流与传播的载体时,大众传媒便成为一个产业,两大基本产品形态分别是信息和时间,后者是所有传媒信息产品统一的价值载体,并在交易过程中决定着传媒信息产品的价格,由此成为传媒经济学最基本的价值对象:时间产品。本文基于时间产品的理论性概念,对不同媒介形态的内容产品进行了有效的价值分析,以此对全球传媒产业未来的发展趋势做出战略性判断。     

儿童信息危机与对策探析

儿童信息危机包括信息泛滥、信息污染、信息虚拟和信息图像化，其主要影响体现在三个方面：儿童加速了“成人化”倾向，呈现出“催赶式”的成长状况；儿童读写能力下降，深度思考和逻辑思维能力欠缺；儿童无法准确提炼有效信息，易受不良信息和虚拟信息的误导。应对儿童信息危机的对策如下：保护儿童的权利，与儿童共享信息权；注重儿童的媒介参与，加强媒介素养教育；制定和完善国家信息政策，颁布儿童互联网保护法律；加强信息监督管理，提高专业人员的媒介自律精神；注重印刷媒体的使用和推广。     

Clean diesel and dirty scandal: The echo of Volkswagen’s dieselgate in an intra-industry setting

In 2015 the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency revealed that German car manufacturer Volkswagen had illegally installed software to produce fake NOx-emissions results. This study aims to analyze how the German news media framed VW’s role. Furthermore, since the scandal shifted from a single company to an industry-wide crisis, this contribution also aims to establish whether the German news media reframed the crisis as an industry-wide phenomenon in 2018. The results show that the Dieselgate was reframed in 2018 as an industry-wide scandal where the conflict, morality, and attribution of responsibility frame were most dominant. We argue that the first wrongdoer in an industry creates a crisis history, which potentially becomes an intensifying factor for competitors who are confronted with similar crises in a later stage. Findings extend the theoretical premise of an organizational reputation as postulated in SCCT, as the organizational reputation is most likely influenced by changing industry-wide perceptions as well.
