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.
