  This introductory chapter sets the theoretical and conceptual framework for analyzing the mediation of memories of past conflicts in Europe. It begins by situating the study within the broader socio-political context of contemporary Europe, marked by resurging tensions, austerity, and contested technological progress. Drawing on the RePAST project's research and focusing on six countries—Cyprus, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Kosovo, and Bosnia & Herzegovina—the chapter introduces the central questions on how media systems mediate collective memories of conflict. The chapter combines the circuit of culture approach with theories of power and mnemonic hegemony to develop a model that accounts for production, representation, and reception processes. The main argument underpinning the chapter and the book more broadly is that the mediation of past conflicts is deeply entangled with present-day power dynamics, identity politics, and struggles over historical narratives. Further, the chapter outlines key concepts such as media memory, the role of genre and form, the contested nature of hegemonic and counter-memories, and the performative nature of collective remembrance. It also identifies gaps in previous research, including the need for comparative and longitudinal analyses of media memory and the influence of digital media environments. Finally, the chapter introduces the structure of the book, explaining how it is organized into three interrelated sections: Production and Institutional Power, Representational Struggles, and Reception and Politics from Below. By developing a theoretical foundation, this chapter sets the stage for the empirical studies that follow, emphasizing that the mediation of troubled pasts is not about remembering but about ongoing contests over meaning, identity, and political legitimacy.

  This paper seeks to explore to what degree revisionism and journalism interact in a European context. By looking at countries with troubled pasts, such as Greece and Spain, which are well into the European Union and also the euro-public sphere, and Kosovo, which uses European Integration as a framework to deal with its conflicting past, we aim to answer the crucial questions of what historical revisionism in journalistic productions is; how it emerges and how it is addressed by journalistic productions in such discourses. We use data from 22 semi-structured in-depth interviews with selected journalists who cover ‘troubled past,’ identified by searching content on the media with the same keywords. These journalists represent a pool of professionals who research the past and forensically deconstruct events and documents to come to new conclusions or re-interpretations of the past through present journalistic productions. Our data suggest that journalists indeed have a narrative of the past in their minds and are eager to explore it further in seeking an ideal professional role of finding out the truth as a counter-revisionist measure. In doing so, journalists also face competing loyalty between their identity and professionalism, belonging, and political situation. Greece, Spain, and Kosovo have suffered very different past conflicts and have different ways of dealing with the past, but journalists in all three countries compete for the true narratives of war and the past. Writing the first draft of history, they argue that the latter is continuously under revision.

  This paper discusses the issues of safety and solidarity of journalists for journalists in a cooperative project where Ukrainian journalists fled to Kosovo at the time of war in Ukraine. Through international non-governmental mediation, several journalists have moved to Kosovo after the Russian full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022 to continue the work of reporting from Kosovo. This is done with the help of journalist peers in Kosovo. The political situation is not favorable for journalists in Ukraine, also considered the fact that Ukraine has not recognized Kosovo as a sovereign state, but this provides a political opportunity to extend this solidarity in political spectrum as well. Interviewed journalists claim that this “functional solidarity” is essential in media development and aid in the future and is a new way to look at safety of journalists. The altruistic solidarity of journalists for journalists also has its culprits of political consequences such as being part of political agendas to try and develop political bridges at the times of war. Findings such as willingness to extend help, planning for solidarity and joint interactions will further advance studies on safety of journalists and reflect on best practices of solidarity among journalists for the future endeavors of similar nature. The role of existing institutions such as journalist associations and international non-government organization are explored as well, defining their role in the process. Ukrainian journalists are in Kosovo to reveal this story of unusual collaboration.

  As a backbone of reporting in war and conflicts, fixers offer essential assistance to the foreign correspondent in conflict zones, also in Pakistan. With valuable local knowledge and contacts, fixers can arrange travel to secure entry of foreign correspondents into conflict zones in addition to securing interviews with otherwise unattainable figures, while offering reliable translation services. Pakistani media, despite being one of the largest and most developed in South Asia, remains under the strict control of powerful military establishment and government, while seeming to mirror the overarching government sentiment with a distinct lack of research-based news. Challenging this state of affairs, local journalist fixers seek to conduct research and investigative journalism, making them an attractive asset for western correspondents travelling to Pakistan. Based on data from interviews with local fixers and journalists in Pakistan, this article reveals the many security problems for local fixers in the Balochistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa regions in Pakistan. It also shows that the fixers’ rights and interests are not protected by media organizations or the governments. Additionally, fixers face increasing censorship from security agencies and death threats from militants. This study discusses the harsh realities fixers face in the conflict zones of Pakistan where international press lack access due to increasing restrictions imposed by the government, and the violence perpetrated against media workers by the Islamic State and other radical groups, like Taliban and Baloch separatists.

  When the new country of Kosovo declared its independence in 2008 it received extensive, but fleeting, international news coverage. This study seeks to provide insight into how an international news event was orchestrated by participants and how news coverage was planned and implemented by international media. We do so by investigating factors initiating, enabling, shaping, and limiting the global news coverage of this story. Particular attention is paid to the close relationship between local ‘fixers’ and media representatives, which is instrumental in most international news coverage, but which has received little scholarly examination; and to the influential role of the UK-based international television news agencies.

  Dark tourism I EU-prosjektet RePAST (Horisont 2020), er det undersøkt hvordan fortellinger om konflikter og vanskelig fortid preger en rekke land i Europa. Et av områdene som er kartlagt er konseptet «dark tourism» - turisme til områder som har opplevd eller opplever krig og konflikter. Prosjektet RePAST-NOR (UiA) har også utviklet et gratis undervisningsopplegg om dette temaet på norsk som kan passe for museums- og reiselivssektoren. Kenneth Andresen, som er dosent ved Universitetet i Agder, informerer om dette og det blir åpent for spørsmål.

  ABSTRACT RePAST investigated how European societies deal with their troubled pasts in the present through the analysis of conflict discourses rooted in those pasts. The project also explored the impact of those discourses on European integration, and focused on four fundamental spaces of civil society and sources of informal education: oral and official history; journalistic and citizen-led media; arts and culture; and formal and informal politics. Eight countries were selected as cases: Cyprus, Germany, Poland, Greece, Bosnia, Kosovo, Ireland and Spain. RePAST interdisciplinary approach involved cross-country comparative analysis and innovative actions for citizens’ engagement with troubled pasts. UiA led a work package on professional media, cutting across all countries under study. The talk will focus on three main findings: The respondents with indirect conflict experience (e.g. those who fled conflict or are part of families who directly experienced conflict) are less likely to reconcile with the troubled past than those with direct experience in conflict. For those with indirect experience, media, family and social context provide an amplified view of the conflict, whereas those who experienced the conflict troubles during their life time, are more likely to move on. Narratives from the troubled past have an influence on what is going on today. Narratives of past injustice and improper dealing with the troubled past do influence the present, as manifested with the decrease in trust in political and justice institutions but also in media. There is a need for more history teaching. The formal curriculum should include oral history, alternative sources and other sources of information, so that a broader range of views are represented in historical accounts. This should be done with technology and digital means such as games and other innovative tools (RePAST-NOR)

  Abstract This report presents the empirical findings of the research into the media, conflict and memory of troubled pasts. Theoretically, the report relies on the circuit of culture, which understands media and cultural artefacts as emerging out of five processes connected in a circuit. Building upon the discussion of previous iterature in the report D3.1, the research design focuses on the processes or production, representation, reception and identity, where we had previously identified conceptual openings and lack of data across all eight case studies. In approaching the process of production, we conducted in depth interviews with journalists covering the memory of conflict; to address openings in the study of representation, we conducted a discourse analysis in different significant moments of time; in understanding reception and use, we conducted focus group discussions with members of the lay public and social media analyses across three digital platforms. The findings are discussed both in terms of the national case studies and their specificities and in a comparative manner. The analysis and discussion of the key findings indicate that in media memories of past conflict, the circuit of culture is characterised by disconnects, interruptions, and blockages. In production, we identified contradictions between journalists’ perceived role of objective observer and polarized and ethnically segmented news outlets; Representations tended to follow well trodden paths and were resistant to change; reception and use showed a polyphony and diversity of views and experiences, introduced new dimensions, such as the role of socio-economic divisions and everyday life concerns, and a concern with healing the traumas left by the conflict. Finally, we present the findings in terms of a typology of conflict discourses in the media while paying attention to power asymmetries between hegemonic, counter and silenced memories.

  Using Kosovo as its case, this dissertation discusses links between journalism’s historical development, daily practice and potential in a post-war society. In theory on media in post-communist Eastern Europe, journalists and editors are criticized for being unprofessional and for not contributing to development of society. Scholars argue that it is both due to an unwillingness to professionalize as well as historical close ties with politicians. The dissertation applies a three-legged approach; a historical-political analysis discusses how media in Kosovo early developed as arenas of forming national identity, later as tools in ethnic conflicts and wars, but also with brief moments of journalistic professionalism. The news production study in four major newsrooms (Express, Koha Ditore, RTK, and Radio Kontakt Plus) in post-war Kosovo (2005-2006) reveals how journalists and editors continue to battle with the historical aspects of political interference and ethnic conflicts. This study shows that the challenges of the past continue in the post - 1999 war environment, also in times when journalists and editors have attended numerous training courses in Kosovo. The international media support, with a goal of professionalizing the journalists, has had limited effect, the study reveals. Instructors and media support organizations did not utilize the journalists’ experience in their eagerness to implement western journalistic standards. Neither did they understand the massive political pressure in Kosovo. The dissertation concludes that in order to assist media development in Kosovo, media support must to a larger degree be aware of the links between the historical-political lack of journalistic autonomy, today’s post-war practice in the newsrooms, and the journalists’ previous experience. In this, there is a potential capital that can be utilized.
