Descriere completă

The War in Our Backyard is a novel study of the German press textual and visual coverage of the wars in Bosnia (1992 1995) and Kosovo (1998 1999). Key moments from both wars have been selected and analysed using a broad range of publications reaching from far-right to far-left and including broadsheets, a tabloid and a news magazine.§The book examines the coverage of nine national publications for each timeframe, analysing how the various events were covered, what sources were used and what insights these examples of the German press conveyed. Where possible, a further comparative perspective has been added by the inclusion of German parliamentary debates and the relevant UN press releases. This provides a useful comparison between the political discourse and the coverage of the German press.§Special attention has been paid to four key themes, which emerged from the research. Firstly, the changing perceptions of the Serbian President Slobodan Milo evic and the issue of who was to blame for the conflicts; secondly, how various armed forces, including the Yugoslav Peoples Army and the Kosovo Liberation Army were presented in the German press; thirdly, the persistent presence of the Second World War and the Holocaust in the coverage of the wars in Bosnia and Kosovo and how they shaped the press interpretation of the violence; and lastly, how Germany s role in the Balkans both in the realms of diplomacy and military intervention was evaluated by the national press. Pictures and cartoons accompanying the textual coverage have been included to present a more rounded picture of press coverage.
