Información sobre este eBook

The third edition of Media, Politics and Democracy examines the fraught debate over media influence, who wields it and what effect social and traditional media has on what we think, how we behave, and how we vote. Charting the media conglomerates of old, the alarming rise of the Tech Giants in recent decades, concerns over 'fake news', and the use of social media by political candidates, this book places contemporary anxieties into historical context and compares the response to such issues across different states and societies. Using examples from around the world, Street tackles the changing nature of political communications and brings under scrutiny the question of how a democratic society can function alongside a democratic media.

Suitable for students studying politics and the media, political communications and other related fields.

New to this Edition:
- Completely revised and updated version of Mass Media, Politics and Democracy.
- Includes a new chapter on the power of the Tech Giants.
- Contains detailed accounts of the significance of figures such as Donald Trump, Rupert Murdoch and Mark Zuckerberg.
- Student questions and issues for debate interspersed throughout the book.
