Abstract:

The importance of Asia to New Zealand has become increasingly apparent. The New Zealand government has recognised the prominence and potential of the region. However, it is arguable whether the media have acknowledged its importance. This study attempts to detemrine how the New Zealand media has responded. The research is based on two hypotheses amended from their American origins to suit a New Zealand context. The first questions the media's ability to influence public attitudes toward the relationship. This focuses on the attention given to Asian issues. The second questions the media's abil

Abstract:

This thesis analyses the changing shape of the academic profession in (South) Korea and Malaya or Malaysia, and Singapore since the colonial period. The argument is that the shape of the academic profession which has emerged by the contemporary period is a reflection of both the inherited models of higher education and their redefinition after the colonial period. The specific argument of the thesis is that the shaping of the academic profession in these three countries can be understood because of this colonial genesis and because the State formations of the colonial and postcolonial periods

Abstract:

This thesis, Reporting East Asia: Foreign Relations and News Bias, seeks to argue for the importance of understanding foreign relations in the study of 'bias' in international news. It begins by pointing out that many previous studies have examined pressures on news emanating from inside national boundaries, but have excluded force from outside, and most notably, the military and economic relations between reporting and reported nations. For the purpose of the study, newspapers from three countries; the US, South Korea and Japan (which different represent types of power order within the milita

Abstract:

The media long regarded as a characteristic element of state propaganda in authoritarian regimes have become a key interest for western academic literature. Yet little attention has been paid to the fact that media within an authoritarian country may be influenced by external factors as well. This work addresses this issue and explores the roles external factors like media globalization and transnational media corporations (TNMCs) play in the transition of China's media governance. It argues that transnational forces have increasingly imposed insurmountable politico-economic pressures on the C

A considerable amount of literature examines the impact of the Internet and social media on the practice of democracy in liberal democratic contexts and on the democratization process in nondemocratic contexts.

Abstract:

This study investigates journalistic representations and discursive constructions of memories of the Asia-Pacific War (1931-45) in three newspapers from three East Asian countries: Japan, China, and South Korea. These three countries have been having decades-long debates over how to interpret and recount what happened in East Asia during the war. Numerous people perished during the wars Japan waged in pursuit of its ambition to be a great Asian empire. The debates over war memories intensified during the past decade due to “memory politics” in the region. Among the many atrocities that have be

East Asian cinema is receiving increasing global attention.

This attention to East Asian documentary can be traced to the documentary film festivals organised in the region, particularly those that devote their programming to independent documentary productions from the region.

Abstract:

This thesis explores the re-articulation of Japan's cultural connections with Asia in the1990s through popular cultural flows. This is a time when the ascent of Asian economic power has encouraged Japan to stress its Asian identity again, and the forces of media globalisation have facilitated intra-regional cultural flow in Asia. In this context, popular culture, particularly TV programmes and popular music, which arguably embody the ongoing formation of Asian cultural modernity through cultural indigenisation of Western cultural influence, has become a key site where Japan's historically cons
