Definition

  • Published in 2004, Comparing Media Systems: Three Models of Media and Politics is probably the most significant and ambitious theoretical analysis of the relationship between media systems and democracy since the Four Theories of the Press by Siebert, Peterson, and Schramm (1956). Based on a survey of media institutions, particularly the press, in 18 West European and North American democracies, the book offers an updated set of models for analyzing and comparing media systems.
