[ecrea] New book: Developing News. Global journalism and the coverage of "Third World” development’

Please find bellow the details of our new book:

*'Developing News. Global journalism and the coverage of "Third World” 
development’ by Jairo Lugo-Ocando, An Nguyen (Routledge, 2017) which is 
now out.*

Developing News isn’t just another study of “development” but a 
thorough, briskly written and radically new take on what Western media 
have retained from decades of change in the “Third World” and reported 
them to Western readers. Read this book to learn how the public’s 
interpretation of the global South has been shaped, mis-shaped and 
riddled with ideology. Then lend it to your favourite, or 
least-favourite, journalist.

-Susan George, President of the Transnational Institute and author of 
'How the Other Half Dies: The Real Reasons for World Hunger' (Penguin, 1976)


‘At last, a comprehensive and historically-informed discourse on 
development by two scholars from the global South: Lugo-Ocando and 
Nguyen provide a powerful critique of development news and news about 
development. Highly recommended’.

- Daya Thussu, Professor of International Communication, University of 
Westminster, London
