** Assaults on the Fourth Estate: Explaining Media Harassment
------------------------------------------------------------
Tuesday, Feb. 19: Featuring Peter VonDoepp, associate professor, University of Vermont. How do we understand patterns of government interference with media outlets in Africa’s transitional polities? Drawing on a novel dataset that tracks the extent and character of government actions against the media in 23 different African countries, this presentation will offer insight into this question. VonDoepp argues governments seek to control the circulation of information more during some periods than others. In particular, when governments face the prospect of being displaced or destabilized, and when they are seeking to enhance or extend their power via constitutional changes, their interests in corralling the free media should be heightened.
