Media and Democracy (Sorj)

Media and democracy: Beyond the government – Corporate dichotomy by Bernado Sorj. “The impact of the new communications media has ramifications for quality of life, education, the notion of the public and the private realms and the construction of knowledge. It is necessary, therefore, to rethink the role of the State and of business and, above all, to raise public awareness and encourage citizens to engage in the public debate in order to collectively build the future, rather than be run over it.”  –
