POSC 100.00 Media Portrayal of Disasters 6 credits
As climate change continues to accelerate, and as connectivity expands, natural disaster events are becoming more frequent, more intense, and also more seen. From devastating wildfires to “biblical” floods, stories of unimaginable catastrophes constantly cycle through the media. How are these disasters portrayed and how do they affect social attitudes and politics? Do they unite people, or do they exacerbate conflicts? Do they create opportunities for major improvements in society, or leave behind uncurable maladies? This course examines major natural disasters through media reports, popular portrayal, and social science literature.
