Sprachhandeln und Medienstrukturen in der politischen Kommunikation (German, Hardcover, Reprint 2011 ed.)

Do popular forms of representing politics in the media endanger the quality of public communication? Or do they provide an appropriate modern entertaining way of putting politics across to wide sectors of the public? The present volume takes up this current discussion from a linguistic point of view. Anybody enquiring into changing political processes an a media society should look carefully at the evidence and beware of idealising myths, false comparisons and overhasty conclusions.
