“…The decline in educational attainment by women in wartorn societies has been observed by Chamarbagwala and Morán (2011), Shemyakina (2011) and Singh and Shemyakina (2016). However, Swee (2009) and Kecmanovic (2013) find lower levels of education among the cohort of young males affected by war due to their participation in the conflict. 3 As in Singh and Skeyakina (2016), there are two channels that may explain lower education for girls during conflict.…”

“…Depending upon the economy, unemployment will rise, production processes will be damaged, health and education services will be interrupted, and cultural-daily life etc. will be influenced negatively (Collier, 1999;Nordhaus, 2002;Baker, 2007;Kecmanovic, 2013;Costalli, at al, 2014; Institute for Economics & Peace, 2018). Furthermore, war-related psychological issues are among the factors that have a negative impact on human health (Ugalde, at al, 1999).…”

“…disruption of everyday life is one of the main negative impacts of war. In a case such as war people cannot complete their educations (Kecmanovic, 2013). During all the phases mentioned above with the regard to war, mass media, while performing its primary, formal function of accurately disseminating news to the public plays on important role in many aspects.…”

Wars, having negative effects on local, national and global scales, violate the fundamental rights of living beings and, in general, cause irreversible casualties. War is a phenomenon that affects life itself and the entire social structure and institutions. Although death, physical injury, or psychological consequences are well known to war, their macro-level damage to the social structure is often overlooked. The mass media also tend to focus on the obvious consequences of the war while ignoring its structural impact on society. This research applies content analysis to the images of the war theme awarded in various categories by the World Press Photo Organization, towards inquiring to what extent possible impacts and * Associate Professor., Moment Journal, 2019, 6(2): 447-469 consequences of wars are represented via such images. The study concludes that usually Western photojournalists create war narrative while the geography of conflict depicted is mostly non-Western. It also concluded that the war was visualized by themes such as death, injury and disability, displacement, hunger, and deprivation, that the moments of war are highlighted while its long-term implications are ignored; that war is portrayed without subjects by symbolic images, often indirect; and that war is viewed as a hierarchical field in terms of the perpetrator and the victim.Savaş, yerel, ulusal ve küresel düzlemlerde güçlü olumsuz etkileri olan, canlıların temel haklarını ihlal eden ve çoğunlukla da geri dönüşü olmayan felaketlere yol açan bir durumdur. Savaş, etkilerini toplumsal yapının bütün yaşam alanlarında ve kurumlarında hissettiren bir olgudur. Savaş, ölüm, yaralanma, bedensel ve ruhsal etkiler bırakma gibi etkileriyle bilinen ama çoğu kez toplumsal yapı üzerindeki makro ölçekli hasarlarının ihmal edildiği bir çatışma sürecidir. Medya da sunumları ile savaşa ilişkin bu genel bakış açısını, yani ölüm ve yaralanma gibi durumları öne çıkarma ve toplum üzerindeki makro etkileri/sonuçları da ihmal etme eğilimindedir. Bu çalışma, Dünya Basın Fotoğrafı Vakfı (World Press Photo Organisation *WPP+) tarafından çeşitli kategorilerde ödüllendirilen savaş temalı fotoğraflara içerik analizi uygulayarak, savaşların olası etkilerini ve sonuçlarını bu görseller aracılığıyla ne ölçüde temsil ettiğini araştırmayı amaçlamıştır. Analiz, uluslararası alanda savaş anlatısının çoğunlukla Batılı foto-muhabirleri tarafından inşa edildiğini, savaşın coğrafyası olarak ise Batılı olmayan bölgelerin gösterildiği sonucuna varmıştır. Ayrıca foto-muhabirlerinin savaşı görselleştirirken ağırlıklı olarak ölüm, yaralanma ve engellilik, yer değiştirme, açlık ve yoksulluk gibi temalar üzerinden kurduğu; savaş esnasına odaklanarak uzun erimli sonuçları genel olarak ihmal ettikleri; savaşı öznesiz göstererek anlatımı büyük ölçüde dolaylı-sembolik imgeler üzerinden kurdukları sonuçlarına ulaşılmıştır.

“…It is associated with a variety of direct and indirect effects strongly affecting living conditions of households during and after conflict (Justino, 2011). The directly observable consequences can be catastrophic, the impact felt years after the end of conflict and often borne unequally across the population (Hoeffler and Reynal-Querol, 2003;Justine, 2005;Murthy and Lakshminarayana, 2006;Lai, 2007;Blattman and Miguel, 2010;Buvinic et al, 2012;León, 2012;Kecmanovic, 2012;Ali, 2013).…”

The armed conflict in Northern Uganda led to a large number of internally displaced persons (IDPs). After the government announced the declaration of free movement on 30 October 2006, a large number of IDPs left camps. Transition from camp life to post‐camp life has important implications for population well‐being. This paper uses the Ugandan National Household Survey conducted in 2005‐2006 and 2009‐2010 and a difference‐in‐differences method to estimate changes in IDPs' well‐being measured by self‐reported heath as well as household food consumption. We do not find a significant effect of leaving camps on self‐reported illness and household food consumption but we find a significant effect on the choice of healthcare providers utilised. The postcamp effect was estimated to increase the use of non‐free health providers, an effect composed of more visits to informal providers and greater choice of formal private providers, when formal providers are utilised. Those findings shed light on policy‐relevant issues in the areas of land rights, recovery of public health systems and gender inequalities in well‐being.
