Media, Crisis and Democracy : Mass Communication and the Disruption of Social Order, Paperback / softback Book

Media, Crisis and Democracy : Mass Communication and the Disruption of Social Order Paperback / softback

Edited by Marc Raboy, Bernard Dagenais

Part of the Media Culture & Society Series series

Paperback / softback

Description

The contributors to this book explore the way in which crises highlight the problematic issues of media performance in democratic states. They examine the relationship between communication and civil society through a number of actual cases of media responses to `crises', ranging from the Gulf War of 1991 to recent events in Eastern Europe.

Individual examples of mediated crises emphasize the complexities of understanding the role of the media in struggles of identity around nationality, ethnicity and gender.
