With changes in the media environment, theatre critics are not only responsible for communicating with theatre visitors, but also any individual who decides to publish in the media, whether it is a professional media or a self-created platform – blog. The aim of the research of the article “Theatre blogs in Latvia: content features” is to find out what are the most characteristic features of the content and the most frequently used functions of theatre criticism in the most active theatre blogs in Latvia. Qualitative and quantitative content analysis was used to analyse the content of the five most active theatre blogs in Latvia in the period from 2018 to 2019. The study found that the content of all five blogs correspond to descriptive material about the content of the performance, actors, and scenography and are supplemented by the author’s personal assessment, which is mainly highly emotional. Among the most frequently used functions of theatre criticism in blogs are documentation, evaluation, interpretation, sharing experiences, commenting, and motivating readers to attend the show. It was concluded that the theatre criticism appearance into the contentof blogs provides a new form of reviews, providing both benefits and risks to the criticism. More attention should be paid to the arrangement and development of blog culture in Latvia and the use of the advantages of digital platforms for both professionals and bloggers to improve their material and attract an audience.

AbstractThe coverage of Muslim women in Western media has long been using Orientalist stereotypes and portrayals of Muslims as outsiders. Even though racist stereotypes exist in Canada, Canadian legislation and the media are attempting to portray an idealistic form of multiculturalism. Recently, Canadian mainstream media have refrained from stereotypical representations of Muslims, especially women, and shifted toward non-Orientalist representations. CBC's Little Mosque on the Prairie (LMP), a satirical Canadian comedy sitcom, is one of the first such instances. LMP criticizes and refutes negative stereotypes, portraying Muslims as ordinary Canadians with problems and lifestyles that are shared across Canada. A qualitative and quantitative content analysis of the first season's eight episodes investigates how Muslim women have been portrayed in LMP, drawing on Luhmann's (1987) theory on representation of society, Millar's (1793) observations about women in society, Hall's (1997) Other, Said's (1978) Orientalism, Kristeva's (1991) theories on foreigners, and Bhabha's (1994) Third Space. Findings demonstrate that Muslim women on CBC are not oppressed or stereotyped; instead, they participate normally in Canadian culture and the workplace and are not considered outsiders. Muslim women in Canada exist in Third Spaces that allow Canadian and Islamic practices to merge, resulting in a uniquely Canadian artifact like LMP.

Source Use

This quantitative content analysis examines source use for an eleven-week period in a “news disaster” story. The frequency of similar stories, which explain to readers, viewers, and listeners how the media do their work, has grown in the past forty years, and media observers are unsure what the change means. In this study, source affiliations and themes are evaluated in a census of stories about errors made by the media in reporting election night returns for the 2000 presidential race. News workers and other media-affiliated sources initially dominated the stories. They commonly explained how the reporting errors occurred or related factual information about the coverage. These sources and themes effectively blocked other affiliated and unaffiliated sources from evaluating the media's performance until later.

Euthanasia is an important social and quality of life issue. However, it is highly controversial and thus continuously debated especially given its legitimacy and legality differ between countries. Little is known about the role media plays concerning this topic. To fill this gap, this study applies a mixed methods approach to a case study of Israeli media, including a quantitative content analysis of news articles (to measure the discourse of ‘civil participation’), a thematic analysis of news articles (to examine the ‘voice’) and a quantitative content analysis of Facebook comments (to measure ‘being heard’). Results indicate that while the media highly enables the media capability of ‘voice’ (both ‘voicing’ and ‘being heard’), it limits the media capability of ‘civil participation’ to a narrow array of discourse, hindering the social debate. These results reveal the role the media plays regarding euthanasia, integral to individuals’ quality of life through the realisation of their media capabilities, and in relation to the act of euthanasia itself.

Abstract The second presentation will cover integrating qualitative and quantitative content analysis for addressing 'why' and 'how' as well as 'what' questions relating to monitoring and assessing interim and instrumental outcomes achieved or not achieved in public health initiatives and programs. Steps for developing meaningful scoring systems for synthesizing the review of multiple types of documents will be described. Examples will be given from global health engagement projects with the development or strengthening of partnerships as a key objective. Using document review as a management tool in integrating strategic planning, monitoring, and evaluation will be discussed, as a way of assessing the gaps between planning and evaluation and strengthening their relationship.

Populist Party

The issue of the relationship between pirate parties and populism has not yet been adequately resolved. This article aims to answer this question: Regarding its communication, is it possible to classify the Czech Pirate Party as a populist party? For that purpose, the Pirates’ communication has been contextualized in a comparative perspective with the Czech parties ANO and SPD, which are commonly considered populist. The study uses qualitative and quantitative content analysis and the principle of triplets to measure populism. Among other things, the analysis indicates that the level of populism in the communication of the Pirates is negligible and the party cannot be identified as populist. Moreover, the anti-establishment appeal does not prevail in the communication either. In this respect, however, the communication of the Pirates has significantly changed after entering the Parliament.

This chapter discusses the principles of textual analysis as a means of gathering information and evidence in political research. Textual analysis has generated strong interest as a research method not only in Politics and International Relations, but also throughout the social sciences. In political research, two forms of textual analysis have become particularly prominent: discourse analysis and content analysis. The chapter examines discourse analysis and content analysis and explains the use of documents, archival sources, and historical writing as data. It considers the distinction between discourse analysis and content analysis, as well as the differences between qualitative and quantitative content analysis. It also describes the procedures that are involved in both quantitative and qualitative content analysis.
