Tue Dec 29 22:05:27 GMT 2015





A history of the International Movement of Journalists: Professionalism Versus Politics
By Kaarle Nordenstreng, Ulf Jonas Björk, Frank Beyersdorf, Svennik
Høyer and Epp Lauk
Palgrave-Macmillan 2016

The book provides concrete evidence of how journalism as an emerging
profession became internationally organized over the past 120 years,
seen mainly through the associations founded to promote the interests
of journalists around the world. This book is unique; a comprehensive
history of the movement has not been put together ever before.

In his Foreword, Juan Somavia, former Director-General of the ILO,
writes: "It is fascinating to read about all these connections and to
see the whole story of the international movement of journalists,
beginning with the first conference in Antwerp in 1894 and ending with
the new global unity in post-Cold War conditions."
