Government and Media in Extreme Crisis Situations |
Friday, 17 July 2009 |
Professor Joav Toker gave a paper on "Government and Media in Extreme Crisis Situations" at Sciences-Po (Institut d'Etudes Politiques) in Paris on April 17. His paper examined both government and media institutions in situations of extreme tension, such as natural catastrophies or terrorist attacks. Professor Toker looked at the way both of those types of power react under exceptional circumstances: what is the mechanism of change and the correlation betweeen both of them. The audience was composed of students and faculty in the disciplines of international relations, political science, media studies and journalism. |

My time in Paris gave me many opportunities to connect and interact with people in the vibrant international community around Paris, from UNESCO to Human Rights Watch, to the countless other organisations that call Paris home. |
