الملخص:<p dir="ltr">This study examines the media framing of the US-Taliban negotiations, with a particular focus on Qatar's pivotal role as a mediator, as portrayed by three prominent news organizations: The New York Times, Al Jazeera English, and Deutsche Welle. Employing qualitative content analysis, 150 articles were systematically sampled from an archive of 915 pieces. The article emphasizes the dynamic characteristics of media framing in relation to political contexts. The analysis reveals that war-related content was more prominent than peace-related narratives, with Al Jazeera English emphasizing Qatar's mediation efforts and the Taliban's legitimacy. In contrast, Deutsche Welle and The New York Times focus more on the humanitarian implications and security concerns surrounding the negotiations. These differing frames shape public perception of diplomatic efforts and highlight the impact of geopolitical stances on media narratives. This study enhances the existing literature on media framing and conflict resolution by illustrating the critical role of media in shaping public understanding of diplomatic initiatives.</p><h2>Other Information</h2><p dir="ltr">Published in: Journal of Peacebuilding & Development<br>License: <a href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" target="_blank">http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/</a><br>See article on publisher's website: <a href="https://doi.org/10.1177/15423166251355719" target="_blank">https://doi.org/10.1177/15423166251355719</a></p><p dir="ltr"><br></p>
