WiSe 15/16: Theories of Press-State Relations and the (Global) Public Sphere

Curd Benjamin Knüpfer

Kommentar

The rapid proliferation of digital technologies and global information networks has brought about renewed considerations about the impact of media and public opinion on policy-making processes. From the Arab Spring to the Snowden revelations, information and communication technologies can appear to be the driving force between major political upheavals in the world. This MA seminar will investigate and question the underlying causes of such perceptions, by addressing the many continuities pertaining to public opinion and role of mediated information has traditionally played in regard to US and world politics. A special emphasis will be given to the concept of a newly emerging global public sphere and how this might relate to earlier notions of international networks and publicity. To do so, the seminar will provide an overview of key texts pertaining to the relationship between the state and the formation of public opinion. It will highlight and compare theoretical concepts from the disciplines of international relations and political communication in order to further students’ understanding of what role information and public perception can come to play in world politics, thereby obtaining an overview of debates and challenges addressed by contemporary political science. Additionally, students are meant to reflect about their own research questions and will be encouraged to actively think about how to operationalize the various addressed concepts. Careful reading of all of the assigned texts as well as active participation in class discussions will be expected. Schließen
