Conflict-related media events and cultures of proximity

Ingrid Volkmer

University of Melbourne, Australia, ivolkmer{at}unimelb.edu.au

The term 'media event' has been coined as a narrative form of mass media communication. The article critically reflects this concept in the context of global public communication. The author argues that a variety of event-spheres can be identified which represent discursive spheres in a global public space.

Key Words: globalization • journalism • media events • political communication • public sphere
