Tutor: Christopher TullochTreball de fi de Màster Estudis Internacionals sobre Mitjans, Poder i DiversitatIn 1965 Johan Galtung proposed an alternative paradigm to traditional war journalism. The peace
journalism paradigm is built around four main pillars related to the functions of media frames as defined
by Entman (1993); defining the problem, identifying causes, making moral judgements and suggesting
remedies or solutions. The attention surrounding the war- and peace journalism debate has focussed
largely on the structural constraints in written press media, preventing peace journalism from really
challenging the dominant war journalism paradigm. But the digitalization of the media industry led to a
more widely available variety of sources about conflicts. There is a substantive lack of knowledge
surrounding peace Journalism in documentaries about war. In this study, a content analysis is performed
on four documentaries about the conflict in Darfur, Sudan. By combining Entman’s (1993) functions of
frames and the four pillars of peace journalism set out by Galtung (1965), it shows the opportunities and
challenges for peace journalism in documentaries about war.
