Summary: | This book is a follow-up of sorts to a similar volume on political communication in the Nordic countries – Communicating politics: Political communication in the Nordic countries – edited by Jesper Strömbäck, Mark Ørsten, and Toril Aalberg and published in 2008. As the editors of this new book point out in the introduction, a great deal has happened since then: the global financial crisis, the rise and gradual hegemony of global tech companies and social media, the rise of authoritarian populism and the global pandemic are just a few of the most obviously relevant developments. Thus, the new volume is a timely addition to the literature. [excerpt] N/A
