This document discusses media representations of Islam post-9/11 and collective identity. It notes that most British people's knowledge of Islam comes from media sources, which have disproportionately represented Muslims and Islam in a negative light since 9/11. The document examines theories of representation, mediation, collective and individual identity from scholars like Gauntlett and Giddens. It provides statistics on negative press coverage of Islam and analyzes the consequences of this type of coverage. Homework questions are included for students to respond to related to these topics.

This year I started developing a new portfolio - a teaching career (whilst remaining a fully devoted civil servant and diplomat, of course :). I wrote an authorial programme on public diplomacy, dedicated to students of the 6th semester of BA studies in international relations. My programme was presented in the form of presentations and was aimed at stimulating discussions among students. The discussions were dynamic, vivid and very inspirational. This is why I wanted to show my presentations to a wider audience. This is the first one. I hope you will find it interesting and worth giving me some tips and hints on how to make further presentations as attractive to various audiences, as possible. Looking foward to your feedback and any questions you may have!

Alexandria, Virginia (November 19, 2014) — ENODO Global, Inc. presented at the Countering Terrorism and Violent Extremism conference held at the Defence Academy of the United Kingdom. The conference, part of the Symposia at Shrivenham series, provides a forum to Government agencies, military and civilian, industry and research establishments for the exploration and exchange of experience and knowledge. Such multi-perspective open exchanges lead to constructive questioning and a synthesis of ideas in a relaxed but professional environment.
This presentation provided solutions for how governments and corporations can design and implement effective population-centric communications and engagement strategies. By adopting a proactive approach to counter civil unrest, institutions can delegitimize activist’s narratives and activities, diminish their influence and utility, and build cohesion between government institutions, companies, and communities. This allows for channeling of resources to address grievances in an ordered, constructive manner.

He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

1. Media and Collective Identity
Media representations post 9/11
Islam
J Bell 25/11/2015
2. Aim to debate and critique Contemporary Media
Issues relating to Media and collective Identity.
• Review students evaluation of contemporary
media issues (18/11/2015) .
• Research media representation and post 9/11
representations of Islam
• How does Gauntlett’s theory of identity relate to
media representations of Islam
• - Learners to update online blog and
development diary / production log.
4. Contemporary Media Issues
Mediation
• Is the process of selection and shaping, creating
meaning from an original event..
• An event which is mediated is placed within the
systems of values of an institution, (e.g. News of the
world, Guardian, CH4 News.)
• Their version of reality is represented to the public
• Mediation is the process through which
representations are created.
5. Collective Identity
What is identity?
• Identity can be argued to be something unique
to each of us that we assume is more or less
consistent (and hence the same) over time…our
identity is something we uniquely possess: it is
what distinguishes us from others.
David Buckingham 2008 argues identity is
complicated/ complex.
6. Collective Identity
Collective identity
• Collective identity: the individuals sense of
belonging to a group who share a set of
traditions and values, (part of personal identity).
• Representation: any consideration of a
‘collective identity’ must take into account the
role that representation plays within the of the
construction of a media text.
7. Collective Identity
What collective identity can mean
• Not just representations from mainstream media
but also through self construction by users of
media.
• “ A focus on Identity requires us to pay closer
attention to the ways in which media and
technologies are used in everyday life and their
consequences for social groups” David Buckingham
• Communities formed from shared identity. e.g.
age/gender/ethnicity/political ideas etc.
8. Collective Identity
David Gauntlett
• identity is now consciously constructed, and the
media provides some of the tools to help us
construct our identities. The media contains a huge
number of messages about identity and acceptable
lifestyles.
At the same time the public have their own diverse
set of feelings. The media and media consumers are
engaged in a dialogue in which neither overpowers
the other.
9. Collective Identity
Anthony Giddens
• There is a social structure which shapes our lives
(traditions, institutions, moral codes, established
ways of doing things), but it relies on individuals
following these structures.
• When they act differently the social structure can
change. Structuration is the process in which
human agency and social structure are in a
constant relationship ± the social structure is
reproduced by the repetition of acts by individual
people (and can therefore change)
10. Contemporary Media Issues
Mediation
• Is the process of selection and shaping, creating
meaning from an original event..
• An event which is mediated is placed within the
systems of values of an institution, (e.g.News of the
world, Guardian, CH4 News.)
• Their version of reality is represented to the public
• Mediation is the process through which
representations are created.

12. Post 9/11 representations of Islam
• 4% of the British public claim that they know 'nothing or
next to nothing about Islam’
• 64% of the British public claim that what they do know is
‘acquired through the media’
• Research from 2006 suggests that the press coverage
relating to Muslims and Islam in British National
newspapers had increased by approximately 270% over
preceding decade
• 91% of that coverage was deemed negative
• 84% of press coverage represented Islam and Muslims
either as ‘likely to cause damage or danger’ or as ‘operating
in a time of intense difficulty or danger’
16. Post 9/11 representations of Islam
What does jihad mean?
• The word "jihad" is widely used, though often
inaccurately, by Western politicians and media.
• In Arabic, the word means "effort" or "struggle". In
Islam, it could be an individual's internal struggle
against baser instincts, the struggle to build a good
Muslim society, or a war for the faith against
unbelievers.
In what way does the media use of Jihad
represent/misrepresent Islam?

23. Post 9/11 representations of Islam
Research from (2007) set out that the consequences of
this type of media coverage was:
• Likely to provoke and increase feelings of insecurity,
suspicion and anxiety amongst non-Muslims;
• Likely to provoke feelings of insecurity, vulnerability
and alienation amongst Muslims, and in this way to
weaken the Government’s measures to reduce and
prevent extremism;
• Unlikely to help diminish levels of hate crime and acts
of unlawful discrimination by non-Muslims against
Muslims;
24. Post 9/11 representations of Islam
Tuesday 17th November, Guardian Newspaper
…. Reciting a passage from the Qur’an, he translated it as: “Do
good to relatives, orphans, the needy, the neighbour who is near
of kin, the neighbour who is a stranger, to the companion at your
side and to the traveller.” Haltingly, he explained: “That, to me, is
what Islam is about. Be kind to people, family and strangers
alike, and love them.”
