How does the journalistic field relate to external economic and political pressures? And what kind of autonomy can, or should, journalists expect to maintain?\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSuch questions are taken up in case studies of such diverse phenomena as media coverage of the AIDS-contaminated blood scandal in France, U.S. youth media activism, and political interview shows on both sides of the Atlantic. Chapters by both American and French scholars also demonstrate methods for measuring field autonomy and spatially mapping journalistic fields, or discuss the similarities and differences between field theory, new institutionalism, hegemony, and differentiation theory. Rejecting all forms of dogmatism, the authors in this volume demonstrate why field theory remains a \"work in progress,\" and indeed, a research paradigm whose promise has only begun to be tapped.\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe book includes an important and hitherto unpublished text by Pierre Bourdieu, 'Fields of Journalism, Social Science and Politics', and contributions from Rodney Benson, Patrick Champagne, Eric Darras, Julien Duval, Daniel Hallin, Eric Klinenberg, Dominique Marchetti, Erik Neveu, and Michael Schudson.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rodney Benson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Polity Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/01\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 8.88w x 0.86d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780745633879\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eRodney Benson\u003c\/b\u003e teaches at New York University. \u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eErik Neveu\u003c\/b\u003e is affiliated with the Institut d'Etudes Politiques de Rennes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Polity Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":40822453960819,"sku":"9.78075E+12","price":44.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_2b803360-903c-4570-8f24-35ad3d9c2783.jpg?v=1683725508","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/bourdieu-and-the-journalistic-field-9780745633879","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
