Statebuilding Missions and Media Development

This book examines the effects of media interventions in the global South and argues for a more adaptive and context-sensitive media development.

The work investigates media development as part of statebuilding and the effects that Western-led media has in, and on, a newly built state. Drawing on extensive fieldwork, including interviews, observations and social surveys, it analyses the effect media interventions has on global South countries, from the populations point of view. The findings show that in practice media development can be alien to the societies in which a free press is implemented, which can lead to unintended and negative consequences for social relations in a country. While the book uses South Sudan as a case study, it also presents different perspectives and shows that local views on the media are different from those of Western experts and policymakers. Therefore, the book advocates taking local views seriously and an adaptive media development that is sensitive to the context in which it is set up.

This book will be of much interest to students of statebuilding, media studies, development studies and international relations in general.

Kerstin Tomiak is Assistant Professor at the American University of Kurdistan, Iraq. She holds a PhD degree from Cardiff University and has worked as a media expert for NATO in Afghanistan.

Guide

I wrote this book while being a postdoctoral fellow at the Leonard Davis Institute for International Relations and the Programme in International Development (Glocal) at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel. The work was possible because of the generous support, financially and personally, of the institute. In no particular order, I thank Dan Miodownik, Naomi Chazan, Chanoch Wolpe, Michal Barak, Reut Barak Weekes, Timea Spitka and Tal Nitzan for their generous and gracious support and comments. Further thanks go to Berit Bliesemann de Guevara and Christian Bueger. I am indebted to everyone in South Sudan who shared insights and ideas with me and commented on versions of my research and papers. Special thanks go to Rebecca Lorins, Duku Alex and Jimmy Kibicho, and finally, I thank my peer reviewers for their helpful comments and support.
