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

媒体研究的研究能力，以揭示社会和政治条件下，对环境威胁的反应发生被低估。解决“一个环境可持续的澳大利亚”的国家研究优先事项，该项目将提供介导的环境政治，包括深入了解媒体和政治过程的定义，宣传和环境威胁和冲突的谈判精辟的循证分析。这项研究也有助于媒体研究的概念发展国际，提供重要的澳大利亚奖学金对地球仪的最大挑战和冲突的严重来源之一-环境可持续性的政治。

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.
