AUTHOR

Dahlgren, Peter

SUMMARY

In this broad-ranging text, Peter Dahlgren clarifies the underlying theoretical concepts of civil society and the public sphere, and relates these to a critical analysis of the practice of television as journalism, as information and as entertainment. He demonstrates the limits and the possibilities of the television medium and the formats of popular journalism. These issues are linked to the potential of the audience to interpret or resist messages, and to construct its own meanings. What does a realistic understanding of the functioning and the capabilities of television imply for citizenship and democracy in a mediated age?Dahlgren, Peter is the author of 'Television and the Public Sphere: Citizenship, Democracy and the Media (Media Culture & Society series)', published 1995 under ISBN 9780803989221 and ISBN 0803989229.
