Final paper is an academic research paper focusing on an urgent global challenge through the lens of media and communication in a global/local context. Potential challenges could include, for example, pandemic and equity nationally/globally in the global media; governance and social media in political conflict, (mental) health as a human right, gender-based violence and social movements, and the future of democracies/labor/security/climate migration and the new technologies. The global challenge to be focused on should be further specified in context and connected with media and communication from the perspective of one’s choice. For example, the plight of Uighurs in China could be approached in terms of conducting a comparative rhetorical analysis of Chinese media coverage (e.g. China Daily) of alleged forced labor with the Western coverage of it (e.g. Reuters, NYTimes).Use of a sample case (such as in the example above) to be analyzed more in depth encouraged. Inclusion of at least two academic sources required. The final paper should include the following sections: title page, academic background exploration of the topic, clarification of a research question, sample case subjected to analysis, elaboration of findings, conclusions, references. Please note: scholarly and other sources must be cited and listed in references. Length 7-8 pages (1.5 spaced).
