The changes triggered by the global financial crisis in 2008, the immigration flows and the covid-19 pandemic in contemporary societies have transformed the way individuals communicate, create content, and 'consume' publicly available information.

Consequently, political, societal, and financial pressures have led to alternative forms of media practice and representations and disrupted the core relationships and dynamics between politics, journalism, and society.

This edited book examines the key challenges in political discourse and journalistic practice in times of crises. It focuses on European paradigms and links political rhetoric and media challenges with the societal, political, and financial crises from 2008 until the present.

Reviews for Political Discourse and Media in Times of Crisis

Crisis is a two-edged concept: if not used carefully, it masks the underlying nature of problems rather than contributing to their understanding. The edited volume Political Discourse and Media in Times of Crisis approaches the relationship between crisis, media and political discourse in a refreshingly complex way, through sharp conceptual analyses and informative case studies, offering an indispensable guide in a time when uses and abuses of crisis narratives are increasingly part of the public discourse -Tamas Tofalvy, Associate Professor, Budapest University of Technology and Economics, Department of Sociology and Communication, Hungary. In an era when everything is changing, this book provides interesting questions about political rhetoric and media. The authors enlighten us with critical insights, research and case studies allowing the readers to better understand how a multifaceted crisis - economic, social, geopolitical and health - impacts media and political discourse, contributing to the wider discussion on crisis communication, political rhetoric and media - LidaTsene, PhD, Teaching Associate, Open University of Cyprus, MA Communication and New Journalism, Cyprus.
