Call for manuscripts for special issue of the New Zealand Journal of Media Studies

New Zealand Media & Environment

Guest editors: Angi Buettner (Victoria University of Wellington, NZ) and Geoff Craig (Otago University, NZ)
Manuscript deadline: 5 March 2010

In December 2009 climate change talks will be held in Copenhagen to agree on a treaty to replace the Kyoto protocol. The lead-up to the talks is a time to investigate the state of environmental reportage in New Zealand. The environment is crucial to New Zealand’s social and economic future, and dialogue between news media professionals and environmental stakeholders is necessary to enhance the quality of public debate and public understanding about environmental issues.
One such site of dialogue is the New Zealand Media & Environment Forum, jointly sponsored by the Department of Politics, the Centre for Science Communication and the Political Communication, Policy and Participation Research Cluster at the University of Otago, held in Dunedin, November 6, 2009.
The news media are crucial to our understandings about the environment. They select which environmental issues to present and who gets to speak about those issues. The news media have the challenge of presenting science, politics, and everyday ramifications of environmental change to the New Zealand public at a time when their own industry is undergoing tremendous change. Those who wish to speak publicly about the environment must engage productively with journalists and editors.
With this special issue we invite contributions that examine the role of the media in the communication and understanding of environmental issues in New Zealand, and encourage dialogue between news media professionals and environmental stakeholders (scientists, politicians, activists, and the wider community).
Topics may include, but are not restricted to, the following:
-     How should the news media report on the science of climate change?
-     How well does the media perform in its reportage on politics and the environment?
-     What dynamics inform the relationships between journalists and their sources?
-     What role do the Internet and new media play in environmental politics?
-     How important is reportage about everyday environmental practices?

Manuscripts should not exceed 7,500 words including notes and references. Please refer to the Submissions page on the New Zealand Journal of Media Studies webpage (www.nzmediastudies.org.nz/submissions.php) for manuscript submission guidelines. Please send manuscripts as an email attachment to Angi Buettner (angi.buettner@vuw.ac.nz) and Geoff Craig (geoff.craig@otago.ac.nz) by 5 March 2010.
