Humanitarian Journalists by Martin Scott

Humanitarian Journalists by Martin Scott

This book documents the unique reporting practices of humanitarian journalists - an influential group of journalists defying conventional approaches to covering humanitarian crises. It will interest students and scholars of journalism and communication studies, sociology, and humanitarian studies.

"This book offers an in-depth and detailed exploration of ‘humanitarian reporting’ outside of mainstream news organisations, based on extensive empirical researchIt makes a valuable and innovative contribution to the field and one that is better sensitised to the fast-changing media ecology and changing forms of humanitarianism in the world today."
Professor Simon Cottle, Cardiff University, UK

"Drawing on a unique 5-year collaboration and over 150 in-depth interviews with practitioners, Scott, Wright, and Bunce document the precarious conditions in which humanitarian journalists do their jobs, analyze how these journalists contribute to accountable humanitarian action, and argue for qualified support from governments and private donors. A must read."
Florencia Enghel, Associate Professor in Media and Communication Studies, Jönköping University, Sweden

"Why do journalists sacrifice security to create new professional practices? This empirically rich book, about actors working the interface between journalism and humanitarianism, puts liminal spaces at the centre of inquiry into changing fields of power, and should in turn be put on many reading lists."
Professor Alexa Robertson, Stockholm University, Sweden
