Foreword. Perceptions of Pandemics: Communicating about COVID-19 in International Ecosystems / Kirk St.Amant -- Introduction. Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) and the Media: Issues and Opportunities / Lisa M. DeTora, Michael J. Klein, and John C. Pollock -- Cultural Differences in Communication and Identity -- Responses to Regulation: Media as Instruments of Social Control or Conflict/Resistance -- Responses to Regulation: Media as Instruments of Cooperation and Representation -- Risk, Space, and Cyberattacks.
"Covid-19 in International Media: Global Pandemic Responses is one of the first books uniting an international team of scholars to investigate how media address critical social, political, and health issues connected to the 2020-21 COVID-19 outbreak. The book evaluates unique civic challenges, responsibilities, and opportunities for media worldwide, exploring pandemic social norms that media promote or discourage, and how media serve as instruments of social control and resistance, or of cooperation and representation. These chapters raise significant questions about the roles mainstream or citizen journalists or netizens play or ought to play, enlightening audiences successfully about scientific information on COVID-19 in a pandemic that magnifies social inequality and unequal access to health care, challenging popular beliefs about health and disease prevention and the role of government while the entire world pays close attention. This book will be of interest to students and faculty of communication studies and journalism, departments of public health, sociology, and social marketing"-- Provided by publisher.
