项目摘要

This proposal is based on a 3-year AHRC grant project examining Russian, British and French television news representations of Islam as a security threat. It provided the first substantive, cross-national analysis of this topic, and the only one to draw on a large corpus of television recordings. Derived from a combination of cultural studies and political science methods, the results: (i) complicate conventional wisdoms on the media's depiction of Muslims, and on the responsibilities of public sector broadcasters in areas of cultural sensitivity; (ii) challenge the notion of a homogeneous, pan-European construction of Islam; (iii) illuminate British television coverage of terrorism from a comparative perspective; and (iv) provide insights into the way in which the advent of radical Islamism has influenced diversity management policies across a spectrum of multicultural European nations. The findings have been published in journal articles, edited volume chapters and a co-authored monograph which has just passed final proof stage. The project, conceived before the AHRC's impact agenda had been articulated, and therefore without a formal impact plan, generated unexpectedly intense interest from three specific sets of non-academic research users: broadcasters, foreign policy makers and media monitoring organisations. The aim of the follow-up proposal is, by building systematically on this interest, and by recasting the already completed research findings of our project for non-academic research users, to enhance the knowledge and understanding of key governmental, media and media monitoring organisations in respect of an issue of continuing importance: the media's representation of the Islam-security nexus. The associated objectives are to work with the three groups in order (a) to inform media practices in reporting sensitive issues surrounding Muslims, extremism and security; (b) to shape government interpretations of the way in which these issues affect domestic and foreign policy in a country of strategic importance (Russia); (d) to initiate a cross-cultural discussion by policy-makers and media practitioners of the implications of our research findings for multicultural, multi-faith societies across Europe.We propose three outputs, to be developed in collaboration with, and for the benefit of, partners with whom we have established prior working relationships: 3 policy reports, a policy seminar, and an updated website with user forum (for more details, see under 'Outputs').We will gauge the impact of our activities by requesting regular feedback from our partners. We will ensure that our relationships with them are sustained through knowledge exchange initiatives, via the RCUK's Global Uncertainties network and our online discussion forum, and by generating collaborative research proposals with their involvement.

该提案是基于一个为期3年的AHRC赠款项目，该项目研究了伊斯兰教作为安全威胁的俄罗斯，英国和法国电视新闻的代表。它提供了对该主题的第一个实质性的，跨国的分析，也是唯一借鉴了大量电视录音的主题。结果源自文化研究和政治学方法的结合，结果是：（i）在媒体对穆斯林的描绘以及公共部门广播公司在文化敏感性领域的责任复杂化；（ii）挑战伊斯兰教统一的，泛欧的构建；（iii）从比较的角度阐明了英国电视对恐怖主义的报道；（iv）提供了有关激进伊斯兰教的出现影响多种欧洲国家的多样性管理政策的见解。这些发现已发表在《期刊文章》，《编辑卷》章节和合着的专着中，该专着刚刚通过了最终的证明阶段。该项目在AHRC的影响议程已经阐明之前构想，因此没有正式影响计划，就从三组非学术研究用户中产生了意外的兴趣：广播公司，外交政策制定者和媒体监测组织。后续提案的目的是，通过系统地建立这种兴趣，并重塑了我们针对非学术研究使用者的项目的研究结果，以增强对持续重要性问题的关键政府，媒体和媒体监测组织的知识和理解：媒体对伊斯兰伊斯兰教尼克斯的代表性。相关的目标是与这三个小组合作（a），以告知媒体实践，以报告围绕穆斯林，极端主义和安全的敏感问题；（b）塑造政府对这些问题影响战略重要性国家的国内外政策方式的解释（俄罗斯）； (d) to initiate a cross-cultural discussion by policy-makers and media practitioners of the implications of our research findings for multicultural, multi-faith societies across Europe.We propose three outputs, to be developed in collaboration with, and for the benefit of, partners with whom we have established prior working relationships: 3 policy reports, a policy seminar, and an updated website with user forum (for more details, see under 'Outputs').We will gauge the impact of通过要求合作伙伴的定期反馈，我们的活动。我们将通过知识交流计划，RCUK的全球不确定性网络和我们的在线讨论论坛以及通过参与来确保通过知识交流计划和我们的在线讨论论坛来维持与他们的关系。
