Summary

By analyzing news stories of old and more recent regional and global conflicts, the chapters in this book demonstrate how both mainstream and online media can be instrumental to either exacerbating conflicts or contributing to peaceful resolutions of conflicts. Some of the studies in the chapters are based on many years of research into the relationship between the media and conflict by the authors, who are themselves scholars and practitioners of linguistics and media studies. Hence, the research results presented in these chapters are the products of academic studies and funded projects by seasoned academics, professionals, and experts, as well as doctoral students.
