The Nordic countries are stable democracies with solid infrastructures for political dialogue and negotiations. However, both the "Nordic model" and Nordic media systems are under pressure as the conditions for political communication change – not least due to weakened political parties and the widespread use of digital communication media. In this anthology, the similarities and differences in political communication across the Nordic countries are studied. Traditional corporatist mechanisms in the Nordic countries are increasingly challenged by professionals, such as lobbyists, a development that has consequences for the processes and forms of political communication. Populist polit-ical parties have increased their media presence and political influence, whereas the news media have lost readers, viewers, listeners, and advertisers. These developments influence societal power relations and restructure the ways in which political actors communicate about political issues. This book is a key reference for all who are interested in current trends and develop-ments in the Nordic countries. The editors, Eli Skogerbø, Øyvind Ihlen, Nete Nørgaard Kristensen, and Lars Nord, have published extensively on political communication, and the authors are all scholars based in the Nordic countries with specialist knowledge in their fields.

In Building Theory in Political Communication, Gadi Wolfsfeld, Tamir Sheafer, and Scott Althaus present the first generalizable conceptual framework for political communication that is also falsifiable, explaining how media performance contributes to successful political performance across nations, regime types, and information systems. The book adapts, refines, and extends the Politics-Media-Politics (PMP) principle, which states that variations in political ecosystems have a major impact on media systems, values, practices, and resources, which can then have dependent, independent, and conditional effects on political processes. With an emphasis on international comparative studies encompassing diverse political systems, the authors move beyond the field's Western focus to show that PMP is useful in a wide range of contexts and research literatures.

"The field of political communication has come a long way in a short time. Thirty years ago, the field had no dedicated journal. Few researchers identified primarily as political communication scholars. Most of the field's published research originated from and focused on a single country - the United States"--

This study is aimed to analyse interpersonal communication on politics among Russian migrants in Finland, and to find an answer to the question: What are the essentials of the interpersonal communication on politics among Russian migrants in Finland? The study presents an exploration of scientific discussion on political communication. The research focuses political communication among citizens on interpersonal level, and considers different approaches, theories and findings in that field. Works of Huckfeldt et al. 2003, Kim and Kim 2008, Merelman 1998, Scheufele 2000, Schudson 1997 etc. were analysed and applied to current research. There is a considerable lack of research which would look at an intersection of political communication in interpersonal communication among migrants. This study attempts to fill in this theoretical gap. This study seeks to contribute to the research field by investigating the following three aspects: first, the correlation between migrants' use of mass media and communication about politics within their social network; second, the tone of conversation in their social network and third, focus of their interest in the field of politics. Primary qualitative data was gathered among Russian migrants in Finland with interpersonal and group interview method. The findings were investigated with the purpose of discovering to what extent political issues are a subject of interest of Russian migrants in Finland. The aspects of interpersonal communication of migrants about politics were analysed: discussions with social circles (family, friends, at work), approach towards mass media and political behaviour. Analysis was based on qualitative research method. One of the most important findings of this analysis is that communication about politics among Russian migrants in Finland is various, and its focus depends on the field of one's interest and is limited by communication competence, especially language skills. Also it was necessary to build a new framework for future studies since the material available on the topic is limited. The following types of migrants were identified in terms of their approach towards politics: active, idle and blocking. While use of internet, newspaper and active deliberation was typical for active migrants, TV and home discussion were the most prominent instruments neutral and neither use of media nor discussions were utilised by those with a negative relation towards politics.

De-Whitening Intersectionality: Race, Intercultural Communication, and Politics re-evaluates how the logic of color-blindness as whiteness is at play in the current scope of intersectional research on race, intercultural communication, and politics. Calling for a re-centering of difference by exploring the emergence and inception of intersectionality concepts, the coeditors and contributors distinguish between the uses of intersectionality that seem inclusive versus those that actually enact inclusion by demonstrating how to re-conceptualize intersectionality in ways that explicate, elucidate, and elaborate culture-specific and text-specific nuances of knowledge for women of color, queer/trans-people of color, and non-western people of color who have been marked as the Others

This book is a follow-up of sorts to a similar volume on political communication in the Nordic countries – Communicating politics: Political communication in the Nordic countries – edited by Jesper Strömbäck, Mark Ørsten, and Toril Aalberg and published in 2008. As the editors of this new book point out in the introduction, a great deal has happened since then: the global financial crisis, the rise and gradual hegemony of global tech companies and social media, the rise of authoritarian populism and the global pandemic are just a few of the most obviously relevant developments. Thus, the new volume is a timely addition to the literature. [excerpt] ; N/A

Die politische und wirtschaftlich-soziale Situation in der sich die Gesellschaft seit Beginn des 21. Jahrhund. wiederfindet, ist schwierig und teilweise auch schwer zu verstehen. Die Antworten auf zahlreiche offensteh. Fragen aus dem vorherigen Jahrhundert können uns auch nicht weiterhelfen. Der Schwerpunkt dieser Arbeit liegt auf dem Gebiet der Kommunikation in der Politik ? dem Segment der Gesellschaft deren Qualität Einfluss auf die Qualität unseres Lebens nimmt. Das Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es zu erforschen, wie Politiker erfolgreich bzw. erfolglos kommunizieren. Ob dies nun auf verbaler Ebene durch die Analyse ihres Diskurses erfolgt, oder eben nonverbal anhand verschied. Aspekte nonverb. Kommunikation: die Gestik, Körpersprache, Bilder und Marketing mit einschließt. Untersucht wird auch, welche Strategien von Politikern im Zuge der Vorwahl-Kampagnen genutzt werden, um die Gunst der potenz. Wähler zu gewinnen - ungeachtet dessen ob es sich dabei um ?style over content? Methoden handelt. Natürlich unterscheidet sich die Situation bei den Politikern in verschied. Kulturen und Gesellschaften, sodass man beobachten kann, dass jene Situation weitaus gegliederter aber auch kompliz. im südosteuropäischen Raum ist, wo Politiker die Seriosität ihres Verhaltens aber auch ihrer Kommunikation betreffend verfehlen. Der Hauptteil der Arbeit setzt den Fokus folgende Aspekte zu belichten: Das Verhältnis von wirtschaft. und politischer Kommunikation; wie Politiker in der Öffentlichkeit wahrgenommen werden und wie man das Interesse der Öffentlichkeit auf Politik lenken könnte. Und auch unter anderem ob 'soft power' Politik und sogenannte Hasstiraden in den Schwellenländern SOE zu den ausschlaggebenden Faktoren für unstabile Zustände in den entsprechenden Regionen zählen. In dieser Arbeit wird für eine Modifikation oder Innovation in den gegenwärtigen politischen Systemen der Welt argumentiert wobei direkte bzw. deliberative Demokratie als Alternative in Betracht gezogen wird. ; The political and socio-economic situation, in which society finds itself since the beginning of the 21st century, is a difficult one and sometimes even hard to understand. The answers to numerous outstanding issues from the previous century might not help us either. The focus of this thesis lies in the field of communication in politics ? a segment of society whose quality has an impact on the quality of our lives. The aim of this study is to explore how politicians communicate successfully or unsuccessfully. Whether this is done on a verbal level through the analysis of their discourse, or non-verbally by means of various aspects of non-verbal communication, including: gestures, body language, images as well as marketing. Also strategies will be examined, which are used by politicians during the pre-election campaigns in order to win the favour of potential voters ? regardless of whether it is a matter of ?style over content? methods. Obviously, the situation differs with politicians in various cultures and societies, so that it can be observed that the respective situation is much more structured but also more complex in Southeastern Europe, where politicians seem to miss the seriousness concerning their behavior as well as their communication. The main part of the work places the focus on exposing the following aspects: the relationship between economic and political communication; how politicians are perceived by the public eye and how the public interest in politics could be drawn. The work will also explore, whether 'soft-power'-politics and the so-called torrent of hatred in the developing or newly industrialised countries of Southeastern Europe are among the decisive factors for unstable conditions in the respective regions. This thesis argues in favor of a modification or innovation with regards to the current political systems in the world, whereby direct or deliberative democracy is considered as an alternative. ; vorgelegt von Dinko Sulejmanovic ; Abweichender Titel laut Übersetzung der Verfasserin/des Verfassers ; Graz, Univ., Dipl.-Arb., 2012 ; (VLID)224410
