The Media and Austerity examines the role of the news media in
communicating and critiquing economic and social austerity measures
in Europe since 2010. From an array of comparative, historical and
interdisciplinary vantage points, this edited collection seeks to
understand how and why austerity came to be perceived as the only
legitimate policy response to the financial crisis for nearly a
decade after it began. Drawing on an international range of
contributors with backgrounds in journalism, politics, history and
economics, the book presents chapters exploring differing media
representations of austerity from UK, US and European perspectives.
It also investigates practices in financial journalism and
highlights the role of social media in reporting public responses
to government austerity measures. They reveal that, without a
credible and coherent alternative to austerity from the political
opposition, what had been an initial response to the consequences
of the financial crisis, became entrenched between 2010 and 2015 in
political discourse. The Media and Austerity is a clear and concise
introduction for students of journalism, media, politics and
finance to the connections between the media, politics and society
in relation to the public perception of austerity after the 2008
global financial crash.
