Cíle předmětu
The course focuses on different political and media systems. More specifically, it explains the differences and consequences of different institutional settings (political regimes), party systems and media systems on politics and political communication. The course addresses questions about the relationship of different political systems and the media, the effects of party organizations on political communication, personalization of politics or multi-level governance including the European Union. The course also explores various possibilities of comparative media research, more particularly it encompasses selected approaches to the media systems’ typologies.
