Colleagues may be interested in the titles published to date in the series, Global Crises and the Media, published by Peter Lang.

From climate change to the war on terror, financial meltdowns to forced migrations, pandemics to world poverty and humanitarian disasters to the denial of human rights, these and other crises represent the dark side of our globalised planet. They are endemic to the contemporary global world and so too are they highly dependent on the world's media. Each of the specially commissioned books in the Global Crises and the Media series examines the media's role, representation and responsibility in covering major global crises today.

Titles recently published include the following, with future titles currently under preparation.
