Book Description
Democracy in the twentieth century is intimately linked to the mass media. Understanding the functioning and health of contemporary political systems requires an appreciation of the role of the media in general， and of the most influential of the mass media in particular: television.In this broad-ranging text， Peter Dahlgren both clarifies the underlying theoretical concepts of civil society and the public sphere， and relates these to a critical analysis of the practice of television as journalism， as information and as entertainment. He demonstrates the limits and the possibilities of the television medium and the formats of popular journalism. These questions are linked to the potential of the audience to interpret or resist messages， and to construct its own meanings. What does a realistic understanding of the working capabilities of television imply for citizenship and democracy in a mediated age?Relating the social and cultural theory of mediated societies to the actual realities of televised communication， this book will be essential reading for scholars and students of media and communication studies， sociology and politics of the media.
