Comparing Post-Socialist Media Systems: The Case of Southeast Europe: Routledge Advances in Internationalizing Media Studies

Autor Zrinjka Peruško, Dina Vozab, Antonija Čuvalo
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 5 oct 2020
This book explains divergent media system trajectories in the countries in southeast Europe, and challenges the presumption that the common socialist experience critically influences a common outcome in media development after democratic transformations, by showing different remote and proximate configuration of conditions that influence their contemporary shape.
Applying an innovative longitudinal set-theoretical methodological approach, the book contributes to the theory of media systems with a novel theoretical framework for the comparative analysis of post-socialist media systems. This theory builds on the theory of historical institutionalism and the notion of critical junctures and path dependency in searching for an explanation for similarities or differences among media systems in the Eastern European region.
Extending the understanding of media systems beyond a political journalism focus, this book is a valuable contribution to the literature on comparative media systems in the areas of media systems studies, political science, Southeast and Central European studies, post-socialist studies and communication studies.

Recenzii

This is a conceptually rich, methodologically sophisticated, and interdisciplinary analysis of south-east European media systems that explains continuity, change and divergence between the six cases. It deserves to be read not only by scholars of the region but by those considering how to approach more generally the study of comparative media systems and cultures.
- John Downey, Professor of Comparative Media Analysis, Loughborough University
 
There was the need to fill a gap in the study of media systems in Southeast Europe. This book is doing this in a very convincing way. Peruško and colleagues support their discussion of the media systems in Southeast Europe with a rich and often complex interpretative apparatus deriving both from media studies and political science. Undoubtedly this mixture represents a major enrichment of their attempt that opens the doors to other possible applications, avoiding the frequent self-reference that often characterizes media studies.
- Paolo Mancini
 
This book reveals major changes in media systems in the six post-socialist countries of Southeast Europe between their early development in the late 19th century and the end of the socialist period (1945-1990) after World War II, and the breakup of their common state of Yugoslavia (1918-1990). The authors follow common threads of changes in contemporary media policy and media systems from the prolific challenges they pose to democracies to the appalling combination of conditions that reinforce media dependence on agents of political and economic power in what they call a "hybrid and competitive authoritarian media systems". This is an important contribution to comparative media studies, providing an exciting insight into media culture across diverse national contexts and advancing a theoretical understanding of the complex and little-known changes in the post-socialist countries of the former Yugoslavia.
- Slavko Splichal, University of Ljubljana
 
Peruško, Vozab and Čuvalo’s book focusing on one of the most troubled regions of European history is an important contribution to the study of comparative media systems. Taking an interdisciplinary approach, this excellent study offers historical depth, conceptual innovation and methodological sophistication and will be a benchmark for future comparative research in the field. A fascinating read for everybody interested in the transformation of media systems in emerging democracies!
- Katrin Voltmer, Professor of Communication and Democracy, University of Leeds
