New Beats: mass redundancies, career changes and the future of Australian journalism

这个项目是一个多方面的、创新的、及时的分析，分析了在行业重组和技术变革的时代，大规模裁员、被迫职业变化和澳大利亚新闻业的数字化重塑所起的作用。2012年，在1000名记者被裁员后，英国的新闻从业人员减少了15%。在这个项目中，学者和行业利益相关者联手探索如何最好地解决有关专业新闻结构转型的经验及其积极适应变化的能力的问题。该项目旨在首次深入探讨经济、技术、工作场所和职业压力之间复杂的相互作用，重塑专业新闻业。

This project is a multifaceted, innovative and timely analysis of the role of mass redundancies, forced career changes and the digital reinvention of Australian journalism at a time of industry restructure and technological change. The nation’s journalistic workforce shrank by 15 per cent in 2012 after 1000 journalists were made redundant. In this project, academics and industry stakeholders join forces to explore how to best address questions about professional journalism’s experience of structural transformation and its capacity to adapt positively to change. This project aims to provide the first in-depth account of the complex interplay between economic, technological, workplace and career pressures reshaping professional journalism.
