The Origin of Dialogue in the News Media Paperback / softback
by Regula Hanggli
Part of the Challenges to Democracy in the 21st Century series
Paperback / softback
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.
