Session Submission Type: Panel
The world changes fast, the world of media and communication even faster. This forces researchers to adjust and to reflect on the important questions we need to ask. At the same time we have more data and better tools than ever before to study the world of media and politics.
In this panel 6 distinguished and inspiring scholars discuss some of the big questions for political communication research. They address issues that have not received enough attention or need a different approach because of rapid digitalization. Each presentation will be short leaving ample time for public discussion.
