Investigated from a journalistic perspective, this research addresses the role played by traditional national media in consolidating emerging democracies or in exacerbating their fragility within new political contexts. Also analyzed are the ways journalists report about politics and transformations of these media industries, drawing on the international experiences of media in transitional societies. This study builds on a field investigation led by the author and conducted within the project “Arab Revolutions: Media Revolutions,” covering Libya, Tunisia, and Egypt. .The Palgrave Macmillan Series in International Political Communication,2945-6126Communication in politicsCommunicationMass mediaRegionalismPolitical CommunicationMedia and CommunicationMedia SociologyRegionalismCommunication in politics.Communication.Mass media.Regionalism.Political Communication.Media and Communication.Media Sociology.Regionalism.320.014El Issawi Fatimaauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1058924BOOK9910150192103321Arab National Media and Political Change2503211UNINA
