The Origin of Dialogue in the News Media, Hardback Book

The Origin of Dialogue in the News Media Hardback

Part of the Challenges to Democracy in the 21st Century series

Hardback

Description

This book develops a new theoretical framework for studying the interaction between political parties, the news media and citizens.

The model addresses how political actors develop and push different arguments in a debate, how the news media select and communicate these arguments, and how they ultimately influence citizens’ democratic decisions.

The author promotes dialogue as a convincing concept for analyzing the quality of public debate and advances a series of arguments for why and how this concept helps improve our understanding of key processes in democracy.

Based on a detailed analysis of rich empirical data collected from referendum campaigns in Switzerland, the book is relevant beyond the specific context and applicable to election campaigns and public debates more broadly.
