Essay from the year 2018 in the subject Communications - Media and Politics, Politic Communications, grade: a, University of Malta, language: English, abstract: This paper is an analyse of the research conducted by Rosie Walters, PhD in Politics at the School of Sociology, Politics and International Studies of Bristol. Walters wants to understand how the case of the Pakistani journalist Malala Yousafzai has been presented in the UK newspapers. By using a discursive analysis, Walter finds out an emancipatory discourse about the young activist. Walters` aim is here to understand if this occidental view can tell us something about the West itself. Outcome of this research is an unequal relationship between the United Kingdom and Pakistan, it is a gendered and orientalistic discourse which shows interesting (expected or not) “prejudice” of the British media discourse. Aim of this paper is to analyse the methodologies and theories Walters uses and how these help the author to explain the outcome of the research.
