European Media Systems for Deliberative Communication explores how four dimensions of national media systems - the legal framework for freedom of expression and information, media accountability, journalism, audience media usage and competencies - contribute to or are detrimental to the success of deliberative communication. Drawing on a study of 14 European countries and their media systems, the volume provides comparative and individual perspectives to examine the social consequences of various types of media systems. By using fsQCA (fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis), the authors relate deliberative communication to the legal framework for freedom of expression and freedom of information, media accountability, journalism, and media usage and media competencies. The book shows how different combinations of conditions and contexts figure as risks or opportunities that are detrimental to, or supportive of, deliberative communication, measured with an original index on a European level.This book will interest scholars and students in communication studies, political communication, media and society, media sociology, global media studies, European Studies and Journalism
