About this book
Adopting a systemic perspective, this book explores media-based communication and reason-giving as a linkage process that transcends time and space. Arguments, reasoning perspectives and emotional concerns link elites’ and citizens’ political judgement within and across a set of interrelated arenas in the political system.
Reviews
Professor Simone Chambers, Chair of the Department of Political Science, University of California Irvine, USA
“Yet again, a highly innovative account of the complexities of democratic public debate. Public reasons do not only circulate through, and thus link, various media and non-media arenas; they also characteristically intertwine arguments and emotions. While many of us may have “known” these things intuitively, Rose Maia and her team thoroughly demonstrate them in sound theorizing and insightful case studies”.
Professor Hartmut Wessler, Institute for Media and Communication Studies, University of Mannheim, Germany
“To understand democracies requires seeing many things at once—the granular lives of citizens, the flow of information and arguments, surges of emotion in digital media, and the social rules and institutions that give us laws, elections, and more. This book shows how these elements interconnect within a deliberative system. Only by grasping such systems can we save them from internal collapse and external threats”
—Professor John Gastil, Department of Communication Arts and Sciences and Department of Political Science, Penn State University, USA
“Deliberation will play an important role in our working through the challenging times we are facing. Professor Maia and colleagues are presenting the complexities of today’s public sphere and their effect on decision-making while offering a comprehensiveframework for understanding what is needed communicatively to meet today’s challenges”.
—Professor R. Lance Holbert, Department of Communication and Social Influence, Klein College of Media and Communication, Temple University; Distinguished Research Fellow, Annenberg Public Policy Center, University of Pennsylvania, USA
