The Making of Citizens (book)
description / availability:
a study based on research conducted in Britain and the United States on young people’s relationships with television. Allowing research subjects to speak for themselves, it traces the dynamic complexities of adolescents’ interpretations of news, and their judgments about the ways in which key social and political issues are represented. Why are young people seemingly alienated from the world of politics and traditional forms of political communication? Are familiar notions of citizenship still relevant in the late, modern age? What role should the news media play, both in informing young people about the world, and in encouraging their political participation?
