WiSe 24/25: Media and Journalism in Exile
Anna Litvinenko/ Carola Richter
Kommentar
Amid escalating global conflicts, journalism has become one of the most perilous professions, as press freedom continues to erode worldwide. This leads to many journalists leaving their home countries in pursuit of security. Yet, how can journalism be performed abroad without direct access to the target audience, in a different language and cultural environment and under new legal and political conditions? How do journalistic role perceptions change? How can media work be sustainable and how can journalism in exile be supported in a meaningful way? Despite the global rise of exile journalism, so far, there is limited empirical research on this phenomenon.
This seminar aims to answer the above raised questions and will provide comprehensive insights into the topic by inputs from external guests (including exiled journalists), guided student team work in various interactive formats (including workshops, world cafés and mappings) and relying on first-hand data from a research project. This data could also be used for term papers and follow-up Master theses.
As Germany is considered a major destination for exiled journalists and offers a relatively safe environment and many support programs, we will focus on the situation of different groups of exiled journalists in this country. Since exile journalism is often related to certain waves of political repression elsewhere, students will form “regional teams” to investigate the fates of at least 5 different groups who shape exile journalism in Germany, including journalists coming from Russia, Iran, Turkey, Syria/Egypt and Afghanistan and become experts on these particular groups over the course of the seminar. Depending on the size of the course, the interests and language competences of the participating students, the groups might be extended.
The seminar also includes a TV show in the “Journalism in Dialogue” format on December 17. https://www.polsoz.fu-berlin.de/kommwiss/institut/cemil/dialog/index.html
