İnsani Müdahalelerde Medyanın Rolü: Libya ve Bahreyn Karşılaştırması

Ocak 2010’da Tunus’ta başlayan Arap Baharı aradan geçen sürede Ortadoğu coğrafyasının büyük bir bölümünü yeniden şekillendirmiş ve 2011 yılının başlarında Libya ve Bahreyn’de de halk yönetim değişikliği talebiyle sokak gösterilerine başlamıştır. Fakat milyonlarca sivilin ölümüne yol açan iç savaşlar uluslararası kamuoyunu aynı oranda etkilememiş, gerek uluslararası örgütlerin gerekse devletlerin insan hakları ihlalleri gibi elzem bir konuda bütün devletlere karşı aynı oranda tavır almadıkları gözlemlenmiştir. Bu durum Libya ve Bahreyn örneklerinde de kendisini göstermiş, küresel güçler tarafından Libya’da yönetimin devrilmesi desteklenip insani müdahale gerçekleştirilirken; Bahreyn’de halkın demokrasi talebi dünya kamuoyuna yansımamış veya bilinçli olarak yansıtılmamıştır. Bu durumun temel nedeni ise önemli ajansların Batılı ülkelerin kontrolünde olması ve bu ülkelerin küresel politikalarıyla uyumlu haber yapmalarıdır. Nitekim küresel düzeyde yayın yapan basın kuruluşlarının, Libya’da insani müdahaleyi meşru gösterecek yayınlar yaptığı görülürken; Bahreyn eylemlerine neredeyse hiç yer vermediği görülmüştür. Bu bağlamda hazırlanan çalışmanın temel amacı; Libya ve Bahreyn örnekleri karşılaştırılarak, medyanın insani müdahale sürecini ne derece etkilediği sorunsalının tartışılmasıdır.

This situation has shown itself in comparison with the examples of Libya and Bahrain, while the overthrow of the administration in Libya by the global powers supported and humanitarian intervention; In Bahrain, the demand of the people for democracy has not been reflected in the world public opinion or reflected in a conscious manner.

In this context, the main purpose of the study; After comparing Libya and Bahrain examples, discussion of the question of to which extent the media affect the process of humanitarian intervention.
