Jurgen Habermas is arguably the most influential social theorist
and philosopher of the twentieth century, and his imprint on media
and communication studies extends well into the twenty-first. This
book lucidly unpacks Habermas's sophisticated contributions to the
study of media, centering on the three core concepts for which his
work is best known: the public sphere, communicative action, and
deliberative democracy. Habermas and the Media offers an accessible
introduction, as well as a critical investigation of how Habermas's
thinking can help us to understand and assess our contemporary
communication environment - and where his framework needs revision
and extension. Full of original and sometimes surprising insights,
this book is essential reading for scholars and students of media,
political communication, and democracy, as well as anyone seeking
guidance through Habermas's rich world of thought.
