Political Communication

4-6 July 2013

In modern democracies, political institutions and organisations communicate primarily through the mass media. Strategic reform policy – in addition to policy content – must always consider the communicative dimension of political reform measures. Thus, parties and their environments must make political communication a core competency. Along with crucial issues of national and international communication, the course considers key developments on the European and regional levels. In addition to a strong focus on the mass media, the possibility of reaching small and/or diverse audiences through modern social media will be discussed. With the support of lecturers from academia as well as practitioners, this course combines current academic discussions and practical demands.
