商品描述

Framing Addiction uncovers how mainstream American media have shaped public understanding of drug epidemics through narratives deeply influenced by race, class, and power. Drawing on content and discourse analyses of six major newspapers, compares the heroin epidemic of the 1970s with the opioid crisis of the 21st century, exposing how Black and Latino communities were criminalized while White opioid users were portrayed as victims in need of care.

This timely and necessary work explores the human cost of biased journalism and the policy consequences of selective empathy. From Nixon's "War on Drugs" to today's calls for treatment and recovery, Framing Addiction traces how media narratives both reflect and reinforce inequality. Grounded in critical race theory, journalism studies, and public health discourse, this book offers a new framework for ethical, equitable reporting on addiction.

A vital resource for journalists, scholars, policymakers, and anyone interested in the intersections of media, race, and public health.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

《成癮的框架》揭示了主流美國媒體如何通過受種族、階級和權力深刻影響的敘事,塑造了公眾對毒品流行病的理解。該書基於對六家主要報紙的內容和話語分析,將1970年代的海洛因流行病與21世紀的鴉片危機進行比較,揭示了黑人和拉丁裔社區如何被犯罪化,而白人鴉片使用者則被描繪為需要關懷的受害者。

這部及時且必要的著作探討了偏見新聞報導的人類成本以及選擇性同情的政策後果。從尼克森的「反毒戰爭」到今天對治療和康復的呼籲,《成癮的框架》追溯了媒體敘事如何反映並加強不平等。該書以批判性種族理論、新聞學研究和公共衛生話語為基礎,提供了一個關於成癮的倫理和公平報導的新框架。

這是對於記者、學者、政策制定者以及任何對媒體、種族和公共衛生交集感興趣的人來說,都是一個重要的資源。
