| Title | Gender Sensitive Journalism and Television Media in Serbia and Croatia |
| Summary | My thesis engages with controversies in feminist media scholarship regarding the objectives of, and the possibilities for, feminist cultural politics in the mainstream media. More specifically, I examine the principles and practices of gender sensitive journalism, and the opportunities for it in the television media. I contribute to feminist media scholarship by identifying the main aspects of feminist normative ideas about gender equality in journalistic content and by offering more insight into how different factors enable or hinder feminist agency in the mainstream media. My project is also the first full-length study in the areas of gender and journalism and feminist media activism in Serbia and Croatia, and it fills a gap in gender and media research on the two countries after 2000, the year when the authoritarian regimes were ousted. I explore these developments by analyzing two main sets of data: the selected Serbian and Croatian television programmes and my interviews with their producers and feminist media activists from women’s NGOs, who have tried to introduce aspects of gender sensitive journalism into the mainstream media. |
