MACASSI, Sandro. Partisans vs. Contributory Roles in the Media Coverage of Environmental Conflict. A Comparative Study. Rev. mex. opinión pública [online]. 2016, n.21, pp.133-147. ISSN 2448-4911.

This study discusses if the regional media made a coverage of the socio-environmental better than national media, using the nearest to the social actors and the knowledge of the problems contribute to conflict transformation. To measure media coverage of conflicts I develop 10 indicators of roles that contribute to conflict transformation and 10 indicators showing partisan roles that exacerbate conflict.

The study analyzes three emblematic conflicts in Peru: "Tia Maria", "Toquepala" and "Conga", they are a mining projects that in 2011 generated many protests, and human and material losses. The methodology consisted of an analysis of the 5 regional news media were compared with 7 national news media, making a total of 1080 analyzed.

The results show that the news is constructed with framing where discourses that contribute to a more confrontational predominate. A very few cases of news contribute to the transformation of the conflict. Regional media have fewer stories with a contributor role, while the capital media have a little more. But also, the regional media published more news promoting a partisan role to push the escalation of conflicts.

Palabras llave : Media coverage; environmental conflicts; extractive industry; conflict transformation; journalism; media and conflict.
