Democratic Delusions

Mehr zum Buch

Focusing on the interplay between media and democracy, this book examines how modern media practices can undermine democratic values while claiming to support them. It critiques the impact of corporate interests on news media's ability to hold power accountable and explores the relationship between media and seven essential democratic elements: power, participation, freedom, equality, public good, trust, and hope. By envisioning new media and tech landscapes, it offers insights into fostering a more equitable democracy that empowers individuals.
