To understand the politics of contemporary liberal democracies, we must also understand the power of the media. The media is central to the health and vitality of democracies, but its role is challenged by new technologies; demands for greater citizen engagement; and the pressures of polling and round-the-clock news. In this unit we examine important practical and theoretical debates into the media’s impact on contemporary politics and policy-making. Students will create their own multi-media case studies to explore these challenges and debates. -- Course Website
