I am strongly interested in the extent of stalking and the emotional effects on the victims. Stalking can be experienced online as well as in person. According to Womens' Aid, 12% of Irish respondents in the FRA study had experienced stalking (including cyber stalking).

Please complete this survey linked in below if you are over the age of 18 and have been stalked at one time or another.

Stalking is persistent and includes being followed, watched, approached, contacted by phone/email or other use of technology, being sent offensive material or being threatened by acts of violence.

All responses are anonymous which means neither I nor anyone else will know your identity.

Americans only! I need respondents for my MA diss survey on gender attitudes and crime. Does a patriarchal attitude usually mean violence or a punitive perspective towards people? If you are interested, please go to this link to complete the survey: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/VGVNX7J

GradProjects: WikiLeaks: will the public remember?

The WikLeaks saga is perhaps one of the more interesting subjects in present day studies of crime, media and justice. However, research on this topic and within this discipline is limited, if not non-existent. The purpose of this research was to examine the content of various forms of media with the ongoing WikiLeaks story. We seek to identify the type of social actor frames used to present the story to the public and explore the differences in content and frames between “old” or established media sources (newspapers, magazines, etc.) and “new” media sources (blogs, more recent television sources). As a secondary concern, we ask if this content is framed in a manner consistent enough to result in the creation of a moral panic according to Cohen’s 1972 model. A quasi-content analysis of 360 media sources reveals that 77.2% did not represent WikiLeaks as a folk devil, although nearly half of the content examined depicted WikiLeaks and/or Julian Assange in a negative manner. As such, an assumption is made that a moral panic is not present, nor was there a media-wide attempt at the creation of one.
