Words and Responsibility – the Relationship between Media Coverage and the Statements

Summary/Abstract: The authors analyze the relationship between media coverage and statements by political actors on the one hand and an extremist “wave of violence” that erupted in Kosovo (2004) and Serbia (2014) on the other. Using an interdisciplinary method of combining media discourse and political science, authors conclude that the messages in the media and statements by political actors have contributed to fueling the extremist violence in Kosovo and Serbia, which is an obstacle to establishing the stability and lasting peace in the region.
