Book The Spiegel Story

Download or read book The Spiegel Story written by Leo Brawand and published by Pergamon. This book was released on 1989 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "So began the most spectacular venture in post-war European journalism" stated Anthony Sampson in The New Europeans describing the founding of Der Spiegel in the immediate aftermath of the Second World War. This book, written by the former Economics Editor of the magazine, traces the controversial history of Der Spiegel from 1946 through to the early 1960s. It paints a graphic picture of the economic, social and political conditions in which a disparate group of people negotiated the right to produce a publication representing their idea of press freedom. It is a story of heroes and villains: heroes such as Major Chaloner, the British Army Information Officer who initiated the project and supported the magazine without reservation, and villains from the German establishment, who have always regarded the magazine as a thorn in their side. The emphasis throughout is on the personal commitment of individuals to ideals of freedom and democracy, and the problems in translating them into producing an innovatory news magazine. This book is not a balanced, critical history of Der Spiegel , it is the personal, anecdotal memoir of a participant in the creation of a publishing phenomenon. It exudes enthusiasm and warmth for its protagonists and for the magazine itself, and reflects the character of journalism in a period when the future state of Germany and Europe was unclear, and when there was a belief that journalists had a fundamental role to play in the construction of a new society.

Book Critical Incidents in Journalism

Download or read book Critical Incidents in Journalism written by Edson C. Tandoc Jr. and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-12-11 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited collection examines critical incidents journalists have faced across different media contexts, exploring how journalists and other key actors negotiate various aspects of their work. Ranging from the Rwandan genocide to the News of the World hacking scandal in the UK, this book defines a critical incident as an event that has led journalists to reconsider their routines, roles, and rules. Combining theoretical and practical analysis, the contributors offer a discussion of the key events that journalists cover, such as political turmoil or natural disasters, as well as events that directly involve and affect journalists. Featuring case studies from countries including Australia, Germany, Brazil, Kenya, and the Philippines, the book explores the discourses that critical events have generated, how journalists and other stakeholders have responded to them, and how they have reshaped (or are reshaping) journalistic norms and practices. The book also proposes a roadmap for studying such pivotal moments in journalism. This one-of-a-kind collection is a valuable resource for students and scholars across journalism studies disciplines, from journalism history, to sociology of news, to digital journalism and political communication.

Book The Politics of Scandal

Download or read book The Politics of Scandal written by Andrei S. Markovits and published by Holmes & Meier Publishers. This book was released on 1988 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through analytical discussions of such events as Watergate and Britain's Profumo affair, this book demonstrates that such political scandals are neither idiosyncratic to democratic regimes nor unique to the United States (or, for that matter, unique to world-weary Europeans). Nor are they, as some political scientists claimed some years ago, routine to those underdeveloped societies who have a high toleration of corruption. While sex and money play their part, at the heart of the great scandals of the post-war era lies the violation of process in the pursuit of power.

Book Modernizing Bavaria

  • Author : Mark Milosch
  • Publisher : Berghahn Books

  • ISBN : 1789206049
  • Pages : 210 pages

Download or read book Modernizing Bavaria written by Mark Milosch and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2006-03-01 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1949 Bavaria was not only the largest and best known but also the poorest, most agricultural, and most industrially backward region of Germany. It was further its most politically conservative region. The largest political party in Bavaria was the Christian Social Union (CSU), an extremely conservative, even reactionary, regional party. In the ensuing twenty years, the leaders of the CSU's small liberal wing (in particular Franz Josef Strauss, long-time party chair and the most colorful and polarizing politician in postwar Germany) broke with the anti-industrial traditions of Bavarian Catholic politics and made themselves useful to industry. With tactical brilliance the politicians pursued their individual political ambitions, rather than a coherent modernization strategy, which, by 1969, had turned Bavaria into a prosperous Land, the center of Germany's new aerospace, defense, and energy industries, with a disproportionate share of its research institutes.

Book Britain  Germany and the Cold War

Download or read book Britain Germany and the Cold War written by R. Gerald Hughes and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2007-06-11 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This well-researched book details the ambiguity in British policy towards Europe in the Cold War as it sought to pursue détente with the Soviet Union whilst upholding its commitments to its NATO allies. From the early 1950s, Britain pursued a dual policy of strengthening the West whilst seeking détente with the Soviet Union. British statesmen realized that only through compromise with Moscow over the German question could the elusive East-West be achieved. Against this, the West German hard line towards the East (endorsed by the United States) was seen by the British as perpetuating tension between the two blocs. This cast British policy onto an insoluble dilemma, as it was caught between its alliance obligations to the West German state and its search for compromise with the Soviet bloc. Charting Britain's attempts to reconcile this contradiction, this book argues that Britain successfully adapted to the new realities and made hitherto unknown contributions towards détente in the early 1960s, whilst drawing towards Western Europe and applying for membership of the EEC in 1961. Drawing on unpublished US and UK archives, Britain, Germany and the Cold War casts new light on the Cold War, the history of détente and the evolution of European integration. This book will appeal to students of Cold War history, British foreign policy, German politics, and international history.
