The EU in the public sphere
Kristine Graneng
Kommentar
The European Union (EU) is often accused of suffering from a ‘democratic deficit’. Part of this argument is rooted in a notion that the EU is not visible enough in media, and that because of this, European citizens do not have enough information about what the EU does and how it functions to form informed opinions about EU policies and the EU as a system. Also the way in which the EU is presented has been seen as problematic, with a tendency towards a national and negative focus on European issues. Such arguments about the EU’s presence in the public sphere have become all the more important as the EU has experienced increased contestation over the last decades.
How is the EU portrayed and debated in traditional and social media, and how does it matter for the EU’s democratic legitimacy? These are the central questions of this course, which we will explore through recent literature on the topic and analysis of empirical examples from different types of media. Schließen
