The Global Journalist in the 21st Century systematically assesses the
demographics, education, socialization, professional attitudes and
working conditions of journalists in various countries around the world.
This book updates the original Global Journalist (1998) volume with new
data, adding more than a dozen countries, and provides material on
comparative research about journalists that will be useful to those
interested in doing their own studies.
The editors put together this collection working under the assumption
that journalists’ backgrounds, working conditions and ideas are related
to what is reported (and how it is covered) in the various news media
round the world, in spite of societal and organizational constraints,
and that this news coverage matters in terms of world public opinion and
policies. Outstanding features include:
- Coverage of 33 nations located around the globe, based on recent
surveys conducted among representative samples of local journalists
- Comprehensive analyses by well-known media scholars from each country
- A section on comparative studies of journalists
- An appendix with a collection of survey questions used in various nations to question journalists
As the most comprehensive and reliable source on journalists around
the world, The Global Journalist will serve as the primary source for
evaluating the state of journalism. As such, it promises to become a
standard reference among journalism, media, and communication students
and researchers around the world.
