This article focuses on the explosion of international media coverage of Indonesia and the role of the Internet as two major factors in the unfolding of Indonesian politics at home and abroad during the last years of the New Order. Both international media coverage of Indonesia and the Internet had their primary impact at the level of elite politics, with the effect on the remainder of society being highly mediated by the local elites and the domestic mass media. The Internet served not only as a source of information, but also as a tool for activism and coordination among an increasingly disenchanted opposition.

The first part of this article elaborates on the content and media management dynamics in local newspapers and radio stations during the period leading up to the fall of the New Order in Indonesia. The latter part deals with the early reform period after the downfall of Suharto. In-depth interviews were conducted with editorial policy-makers of the newspapers and with various radio station staff members in four cities where media consumption and other data had rarely been documented. The findings in the first part reveal omnipresent political control at two levels — local and central government. Because of this control, the local media personnel acknowledge their limitations, but strove for as much freedom as possible within the system. The second part shows that in this historical context, changes are taking place in both agency and structure. Both parts support the thesis that there is an interplay between agency and structure as opposed to the instrumentalist and structuralist orthodoxies.

This article assesses the nature of news coverage on Indonesia in the online versions of three Dutch (two national, one regional) newspapers and the paper version of a current affairs magazine. The research literature points to five recurrent frames in news reporting: conflict, human interest, economic impact, morality, responsibility. Our central research question is: how does news reporting on Indonesia in Dutch newspapers as well as in one Dutch current affairs magazine reflect these frames? The period of scrutiny starts with the coverage of the student riots in May 1998, leading up to Suharto's resignation, Habibi's Cabinet, the elections and the beginning of Wahid's presidency, until April 2000. In-depth interviews were also conducted with media-makers and experts on Indonesia with respect to their perception of the overall quality of the Dutch news reporting on Indonesia.

This study explores the political significance of rumours — as public resistance to a repressive authoritarian communication structure — in the changing structure of the global economy, which is characterized by a high degree of capital mobility and an increasing separation of the entire financial sector from underlying, real economic activity. This study proposes that rumours — within a specific time period — may gain political significance in contributing to the delegitimization of a ruling regime. In Indonesia's case, rumours played a part at a specific historical juncture of the development of global capitalism — into which Indonesia became integrated in the 1970s — where human agencies' perceptions, fear, greed and sudden changes of heart are fundamental for capital mobility and the ruling regime's structural stability or change.

This study examines the complex, long-term relationship of Australia with Indonesia through the framing process in the Australian media. The authors describe a mature relationship in which the partners no longer have any illusions about each other, but where feelings of antipathy and hostility can have no place either in the longer-term relationship. In the events around the replacement of Suharto in May 1998 clear examples could be found of the framing process in which Australian media sought to make an Australian sense out of the Indonesian tragedies of the end of the century.

This article analyses the performance of Indonesia's underground media in the period leading to the fall of the Suharto dictatorship. Analyses are based on interviews with media activists as well as a qualitative study of the contents of these media. Constructs of media frame analysis and movements rhetoric are used to gain an understanding of the struggle between the ideology of the Indonesian regime and the ideology of the social movements. The first part of the article describes the organizational and individual histories of the people running these underground media; the second part scrutinizes the rhetoric and the recurrent media frames. The frames for looking at Indonesian problems that were proposed by the underground media gained resonance with the public at large, eventually contributing to Suharto's downfall.

/ This article builds upon the definition of development as an ideological field to explore journalism as a site where global discourses of development meet locally grounded meanings to shape social understandings of modernization and progress in developing nations. The Puerto Rican experience during the promotion of Operation Bootstrap (1947—63) was selected as a case study to examine how the local press framed the process of industrialization as a news event of national and international relevance and thus mediated the definition of development as a public affair and redefined boundaries in the public and private spheres. Drawing on the notion of `mediated publicness', and its implications for the transformation of visibility and the organization of hegemony in modern societies, this research also discusses the ideological effects of such reporting in the particular context of colonialism and dependent development in Puerto Rico.

This study documents the emergence of the societal right to freedom of the press in the international human rights law of Latin America. Relying on legal research and analysis methodology, this article examines cases from the Inter-American Court of Human Rights and the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights that address press freedom vis-a-vis prior restraints, desacato laws, violent attacks on journalists and mandatory colegio membership for journalists. The study concludes that the societal right to a free press, like the individual right, is a guarantee against governmental intrusion in the free flow of information and ideas necessary in a democracy.

Throughout the history of democracy, political cartoonists have not hesitated to swing their pens like a battle-ax against injustice, lack of freedom or political corruption. This article calls for more concerted scholarly attention to the role and function of political cartoonists in the democratization process. By focusing on how political cartoonists have tackled controversial issues and criticized the political establishment throughout American and European history, the article explores the dilemmas of Turkish political cartoonists and their courageous struggle over the political and social constraints between 1869 and 2000. Particular attention here is given to the socio-political structure of Turkey in the post-1923 period. The author argues that editorial cartoonists' role as a safety valve to undermine dogmas and the status quo contributed to Turkey's attempts to be a more democratic society.
