Using this combined framework, it reflects upon how we should understand the expression of democratic participation in mainstream mass media during the 2015 UK General Election and the 2016 referendum on Britain's membership of the EU. Are we now living in an era where democratic participation is much more concerned with spectacle rather than substantive debate? The book addresses this conceptual journey and reflects on differing models of democratic participation, before applying that framework to the two identified case studies. Finally, the authors consider what it means to be living in a period of democratic spectacle, where political events have become evental politics. The book will be of use to students and scholars across the fields of political science and culture and media studies, as well as wide readers interested in the current issues facing British politics. . 606 $aCommunication in politics 606 $aElections 606 $aEurope$xPolitics and government 606 $aJournalism 606 $aPolitical sociology 606 $aPolitical Communication 606 $aElectoral Politics 606 $aEuropean Politics 606 $aJournalism 606 $aPolitical Sociology 615 0$aCommunication in politics. 615 0$aElections. 615 0$aEurope$xPolitics and government. 615 0$aJournalism. 615 0$aPolitical sociology. 615 14$aPolitical Communication. 615 24$aElectoral Politics. 615 24$aEuropean Politics. 615 24$aJournalism. 615 24$aPolitical Sociology. 676 $a320.014 700 $aLamond$b Ian R$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0960381 702 $aReid$b Chelsea$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910255285903321 996 $aThe 2015 UK General Election and the 2016 EU Referendum$92177082 997 $aUNINA
