The rise of extreme populists, economic shocks, and rising international tensions are causing turmoil and have reached long-predicted tipping points in media and politics, with worrying implications for democracies. This second edition of Political Communication bridges old and new to map the political and cultural shifts and analyze what they mean for our aging democracies. It revisits key questions such as why polarized electorates are no longer prepared to support established political parties, why large parts of the legacy media are either dying or dismissed as fake news, and why some democratic leaders look more like dictators. The book is enriched with new global comparisons and useful ancillary material and will appeal to advanced students and scholars of political communication, as well as anyone trying to understand the precarious state of today's media and political landscape.
