Building on a survey of media institutions in eighteen West
European and North American democracies, Hallin and Mancini
identify the principal dimensions of variation in media systems and
the political variables which have shaped their evolution. They go
on to identify three major models of media system development (the
Polarized Pluralist, Democratic Corporatist and Liberal models) to
explain why the media have played a different role in politics in
each of these systems, and to explore the forces of change that are
currently transforming them. It provides a key theoretical
statement about the relation between media and political systems, a
key statement about the methodology of comparative analysis in
political communication and a clear overview of the variety of
media institutions that have developed in the West, understood
within their political and historical context.
