{"product_id":"democracy-and-the-media-richard-gunther-9780521777438","title":"Democracy and the Media: A Comparative Perspective","description":"This book presents a unique perspective on the relationship between politics and the media in different kinds of political regimes in Europe, North America and Asia. These essays show that media effects on politics are the product of interactions among media technologies, the structure of the media market, the legal and regulatory framework, the nature of basic political institutions, and the characteristics of individual citizens. The authors' conclusions challenge conventional wisdom concerning the political roles and effects of the mass media on regime support and change, on the political behavior of citizens, and on the quality of democracy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Richard Gunther\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521777437\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521777438\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/28\/2000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 516\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 5.90w x 1.30d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/01\/2001 pg. 1862","brand":"Richard Gunther","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48437903720703,"sku":"9780521777438","price":59.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a497efa4-4c01-4c76-82a9-1422443cbdfe.jpg?v=1777167561","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/democracy-and-the-media-richard-gunther-9780521777438","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
