Dear all,
</div><div><br></div><div>In 2007 I published a book with Palgrave called Media Pressure on Foreign Policy: The Evolving Theoretical Framework. Admittedly, it wasn't the Christmas present of the year as I was hoping — catchy title though it had. Nevertheless, in the final chapter I put forward n explicit (and I like to think lucid) argument for the value of taking a communication studies approach (particularly an ethno-com approach) to the study of international relations (I have a Ph.D in IR, so I'm looking "in" on ethno-comm for its potential). </div><div><br></div><div>I think the need to press this kind of agenda is more salient now than ever. </div><div><br></div><div>So if anyone is working on the nexus of ethnocomm and IR or political science (or has a special interest in positioning theory — and heck, who doesn't?) you can download this segment of the chapter (and the relevant endnotes, which I super-glued to the end of it) on Academia.edu:</div><div><br></div><div>http://thepolicylab.academia.edu/DerekBMiller/Papers/876439/Political_Communication_and_International_Relations_-_Book_Excerpt</div><div><br></div><div>The book itself (reviewed by Steven Livington, and Rom Harré) is here:</div><div>http://us.macmillan.com/mediapressureonforeignpolicy </div>
<div><br></div><div>There is also an companion piece to this that I published in Journalism Studies (Vol. 11 No. 5, Oct 2010) called The Morality Play: Getting to the Heart of Media Influence on Foreign Policy.</div><div><br></div><div>Best,</div><div><br></div><div>Derek<br><font color="#D8994B">_________________</font><div><b>Dr. Derek B.
