Description

An Introduction to Political Communication presents a critical introduction to the relationship between politics, the media and democracy in the UK and other contemporary societies. McNair examines the use made of the media by political actors of all kinds, from presidents and prime ministers to trade unionists and terrorist organisations. The book asks if politics in the media has become a performance art and, if so, is this a good or a bad thing? An Introduction to Political Communication is written in a clear textbook style introducing students to key concepts and debates in political and media studies and contains a detailed bibliography.
