Description:If It Was Not for Terrorism: Crisis, Compromise and Elite Discourse in the Age of War on Terror aims to investigate questions regarding the hegemonic power that is exercised by elites (and mass media) through the discourse of War on Terror. The chapters in the volume provide case studies from a wide variety of geographies to debate questions regarding the construction of the meaning of terrorism, communication of collective identities and otherness, and media frames regarding the War on Terror, civil liberties, and government restrictions. In bringing this collection together, it was our intention to provide a venue for discussion of expressions and diverse concerns around the themes of media and terrorism from international and interdisciplinary perspectives. The edited volume is divided into two parts. The first part of the volume focuses on elite discourse about the definition of terrorism and discursive strategies involved in construction of us vs. others. The second part of the volume investigates issues related to media framing of the compromises that are deemed necessary for success in the War on Terror. At the same time, several chapters of this part also identify opportunities for resistance to hegemonic discourse.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
