This comparative volume provides a comprehensive cross-national account of media coverage and public attitudes toward migration both within and into the European Union. Using empirical research from across Germany, Hunary, Poland, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom, Media and Public Attitudes Toward Migration in Europe offers an in-depth exploration of one of the most prominent social and political topics of the decade in Europe. Drawing on a large scale, cross-national panel survey, experiments, and media content analysis of migration discourse in both traditional news media and social media, expert contributors from across the continent investigate topics such as the linguistic features of migration coverage, the public perception of migrants, and the effects of journalistic communication strategies. Other topics addressed include a discussion of news framing effects on migration coverage and politicians’ postings on social media coverage about the issue. This is a valuable resource for academics, students, and policymakers interested in media coverage of migration, news framing effects, and public attitudes to migration generally. .

Vad kommer människor i framtiden säga när de ser tillbaka på vår tid? Kommer de säga att vi var insiktsfulla och agerade långsiktigt? Eller kommer de säga att vi inte förstod? Att vi inte insåg vilka möjligheter som framtiden erbjöd? Kommer vi framstå som föredömen eller som avskräckande exempel? Svaren är så klart omöjliga att veta: hur det blir är upp till framtiden att avslöja. Samtidigt påverkas svaren av hur vi agerar i nuet. De formas av i vilken utsträckning vi har förmågan att identifiera vilka utmaningar och möjligheter som väntar och hur dessa bäst ska mötas. Den här boken handlar därför om olika framtida samhällsutmaningar som Sverige står inför inom områden som arbetsmarknad, demokrati, företagande, globalisering, integration, integritet, klimat och miljö, kultur, medier, omsorg och vård, politiskt ledarskap, religion, stadsplanering och utbildning. Tillsammans tecknar kapitlen en karta över det nya Sverige. Redaktör för boken är professor Jesper Strömbäck, huvudsekreterare i regeringens Framtidskommission.

Framtidsutmaningar : Det nya Sverige

Over time and across Western democracies, the media has become increasingly influential, and a great deal more political processes have become altered, shaped or structured by the media and the perceived need of individuals, organizations and social systems to communicate with or through the media. The key theoretical perspective to understand this process is mediatization. As a long-term process which has increased the importance of the media and their spill-over effects on political processes, institutions, organizations and actors, mediatization is one of the most important processes reshaping politics and transforming democracies across the Western world. While the theoretical perspective of mediatization has become increasingly popular in recent years, scholarly understanding of the mediatization process and its antecedents, consequences and contingencies are still hampered by unresolved questions and a lack of systematic empirical studies. This volume addresses this by bringing together contributions that analyze and investigate different facets of the mediatization of politics, making a significant contribution to our theoretical as well as empirical understanding of this process, and setting the agenda for further research. This book was originally published as two special issues, of Journalism Studies and Journalism Practice.
