The book is an attempt to provide an ethnographic reading of journalism in the BRICS countries. The book will present the data from the eyes of the BRICS journalists, from their own subjective world so as to provide readers with these journalists’ understanding of their profession and society as well as their anxieties and hopes in connection with the latest global technological changes that have an impact on their profession and its practice, on their communication and on themselves, in this historic moment of the rise of the BRICS countries. In so doing, the book brings voices and narratives of the journalists themselves in the forefront: about their profession, practice, experience and situation, in essence their lived work experiences. Thus, journalists’ views are the focus of this book; these views are privileged glimpses into the five BRICS countries’ journalism from the point of view of journalists, i.e., those in touch, on the ground, with the real-life impact of political, economic, social and other upheavals on their profession and practice. Journalists are at the center of this book.
