Handbuch Politische Kommunikation

Zusammenfassung

Für eine gesunde Demokratie ist die Beteiligung ihrer Bürger/innen an politischen Prozessen eine notwendige Bedingung. Seit Langem beschäftigt daher die Kommunikations- und Politikwissenschaft die Frage nach den Faktoren, die partizipatorische Aktivitäten der Bürger/innen befördern oder behindern. Insbesondere die Rolle der Medien ist hierbei strittig. Ziel dieses Beitrags ist es, einen kondensierten Überblick über theoretische Argumente als auch empirische Ergebnisse zur Wirkung der Medien auf politische Partizipation zu geben.
