They go on to identify three major models of media system development (the Polarized Pluralist, Democratic Corporatist and Liberal models) to explain why the media have played a different role in politics in each of these systems, and to explore the forces of change that are currently transforming them. It provides a key theoretical statement about the relation between media and political systems, a key statement about the methodology of comparative analysis in political communication and a clear overview of the variety of media institutions that have developed in the West, understood within their political and historical context. 410 0$aCommunication, society and politics. 606 $aMass media$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aMass media$xPolitical aspects. 676 $a302.23 700 $aHallin$b Daniel C.$0283099 702 $aMancini$b Paolo 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910457676703321 996 $aComparing media systems$92408291 997 $aUNINA
