Media and Democracy addresses key topics and themes in relation to
democratic theory, media and technology, comparative media studies,
media and history, and the evolution of media research. For
example: How does TV entertainment contribute to the democratic
life of society? Why are Americans less informed about politics and
international affairs than Europeans? How should new communications
technology and globalisation change our understanding of the
democratic role of the media? What does the rise of international
ezines reveal about the limits of the internet? What is the future
of journalism? Does advertising influence the media? Is American
media independence from government a myth? How have the media
influenced the development of modern society? Professor Curran's
response to these questions provides both a clear introduction to
media research, written for university undergraduates studying in
different countries, and an innovative analysis written by one of
the field's leading scholars.
