Changing Landscapes: Online Media and Politics in an Age of Environmental Conflict

媒体研究揭示对环境威胁作出反应的社会和政治条件的能力被低估了。为了解决“一个环境可持续发展的澳大利亚”的国家研究重点，该项目将对中介环境政治提供深刻的基于证据的分析，包括洞察媒体和政治过程，为环境威胁和冲突的定义、争论和谈判提供信息。这项研究也为国际媒体研究的概念发展做出了贡献，为全球最大的挑战之一和冲突的尖锐来源——环境可持续性政治——提供了重要的澳大利亚奖学金。

The capacity of Media Studies research to reveal the social and political conditions in which responses to environmental threats occur has been undervalued. Addressing the National Research Priority of 'An Environmentally Sustainable Australia', this project will provide incisive evidence-based analysis of mediated environmental politics, including insight into the media and political processes informing the definition, contestation and negotiation of environmental threat and conflict. This research also contributes to the conceptual development of Media Studies internationally, providing important Australian scholarship on one of the globe's greatest challenges and acute sources of conflict - the politics of environmental sustainability.
