Larsen and Inger Munk, Danish School of Media and Journalism Donald Matheson, University of Canterbury Journalism faces new and serious challenges against a backdrop of attacks on the political notion of an inclusive and pluralist society, an idea based on internationally and locally accepted fundamental rights frameworks. Tese frameworks build on recognition, respect and inclusion of diference, based on individual or collective rights and a critical stand towards the construction of diference.
