NEW BOOK: Global Journalism: Theory and Practice (Peter Lang), by Peter Berglez, Örebro University

Recent instances of global crisis reporting on climate change and the financial crisis are early embryos of a new form of journalism that is increasingly needed in global times: global journalism. Instead of associating global journalism with national comparisons of media systems or defining it as an ethically «corrective» form of
journalism, Peter Berglez sets out to develop the idea of global journalism as an epistemological updating of everyday mainstream news media. He theoretically understands and explains global journalism as a concrete practice, which can be applied in research, training, and reporting. He argues that the future of professional news journalism is about leaving behind the dominant national outlook for the sake of a more integrated(global) outlook on society. Emerging examples of global journalism are analyzed throughout the book alongside the historical background and the challenges it faces.

Contents: Global Journalism: An Introduction – So What Exactly Is Global Journalism? – The Relevance of Global Journalism – Challenges to Global Journalism – Global Journalism and the Digital Web.
