Manchester: Manchester University Press (2019), x, 288 pp.

Alex Iván Arévalo Salinas; Griselda Vilar Sastre; Marcial García López (eds.)
Valencia: Tirant Humanidades (2019), pp. 87-104

Past research indicates that media portrayals of distant suffering can promote helping behavior by eliciting sympathy, while those that prompt a more rational respon ... more

The advent of image-intensive digital spaces such as Instagram has facilitated communication for these institutions, making ‘development’ more accessible to the public. However, the representation ... more

Using longitudinal content analysis (1990-2010) of a purposive sample of US news outlets, it compares the prevalence, prominence, and story loc ... more
"Natürlich ist Grundlage unserer Arbeit auch der Pressekodex. Darüber hinaus haben wir überlegt, was ist das Besondere von uns als katholisches Lateinamerika-Hilfswerk, als „Adveniat“. Wie spielt das mit rein in unsere Bildethik, unsere Ethik in der Öffentlichkeitsarbeit, die Ethik unserer B ... more
