More DescriptionThe volume aims at providing a comprehensive understanding of comparative political communication. It is the first of its kind and discusses, among others, current changes in media systems of Europe and America, whether election campaigns around the world become "Americanized," how news journalists around the world understand their job differently and produce different forms of television news programs, or how governmental medial relations and news management efforts evolve in different political systems.
