The Media and the Nile, Gebunden

Klappentext

Changing climate patterns are exacerbating concerns surrounding water scarcity and shifting geopolitical orders. This book addresses the relationship between water resources (specifically the Nile), national development and international cooperation and conflict. By analyzing how the river Nile has been represented in national and international media, a multi-national team of researchers for the first time unpacks the narratives that have been used by different communities to talk about the Nile and advance claims on the use of its waters.
Focusing on local media outlets in Egypt, Sudan, Ethiopia and Uganda as well as global outlets with international reach such as Al Jazeera and The Guardian, this book analyses the role media narratives play in shaping international water diplomacy in the Global South.
