The purpose of this book is to spotlight the way in which political scandals in four Nordic countries have been launched, directed, dramatized and interpreted through different genres of journalism - in an interactive tug-of-war between editors and various political actors.

The Nordic Research Network in Journalism Studies is one of the 30 new research networks that will be funded by NordForsk in the period 2009-2011. The new network in journalism studies is based on cooperation between journalism, media and communication departments at 14 Nordic and Baltic universities, all with PhD-programs that include journalism studies. Around 60 researchers, half of them PhD-students, are connected to the network.

Media power in the global era has to do with how people understand the world, their place in it, and their relation to the others who populate it. Making connections with distant places and people is the work of cosmopolitan imagination, which involves seeing the world through the eyes of others. In this book, Robertson engages with the growing literature on cosmopolitanism to address these issues, approaching the largely theoretical debate through an innovative empirical portal.
