Investigative Journalism Summary

Investigative Journalism by Hugo de Burgh

This third edition maps the new world of investigative journalism, where technology and globalisation have connected and energised journalists, whistle-blowers and the latest players, with far-reaching consequences for politics and business worldwide.

In this new edition, expert contributors demonstrate how crowdsourcing, big data, globalisation of information, and changes in media ownership and funding have escalated the impact of investigative journalists. The book includes case studies of investigative journalism from around the world, including the exposure of EU corruption, the destruction of the Malaysian environment, and investigations in China, Poland and Turkey. From Ibero-America to Nigeria, India to the Arab world, investigative journalists intensify their countries' evolution by inquisition and revelation.

This new edition reveals how investigative journalism has gone digital and global. Investigative Journalism is essential for all those intending to master global politics, international relations, media and justice in the 21st century.

Investigative Journalism Reviews

This 3rd edition of Investigative Journalism confronts a profoundly changed media landscape. Reports of the death of investigative journalism as watchdog and custodian of conscience are way premature, as this book reveals. Essential. - Dominic Ziegler, The Economist

Investigative journalism makes crucial contributions to the development of society and the improvement of institutions all over the world. This 3rd edition of Investigative Journalism is a much-needed guide to investigative journalism in a new era of global uncertainty and upheaval - Zhang Lifen, Professor of Journalism, Fudan University

This new edition, rich with case studies and best practice, illustrates a fresh encouraging wave of investigative journalism around the globe. Essential reading for students, academics and journalists who believe in holding the powerful to account. -Richard Sambrook, Professor of Journalism, Cardiff University and Former Director, BBC News

Investigative journalism is seeing a huge transformation and this book tells you about the most important developments - from the growing power of international collaboration over the new importance of open source investigations to the emerging role played by NGOs. It turns an eye not only to the countries of the English-speaking world but also to Asia, Africa and Latin America. - Hans-Martin Tillack, Stern

This book tracks the emergence of new tools and techniques for holding power to account and describes emerging models for cross-border collaboration and protection. The journalism of exposure can no longer be confined to nation-states. It has also become even more urgent and necessary.- Sheila S. Coronel, Director, Stabile Center for Investigative Journalism, Columbia University
