The book seeks to consider three related issues: What ideal roles should media systems play to strengthen democratic governance and thus bolster human development? Under what conditions do media systems actually succeed or fail to fulfill these objectives? What policy interventions work most effectively to close the substantial gap which exists between the democratic promise and performance of the news media as an institution?Copyright © 2009 World Bank (http://go.worldbank.org/ZMCO1WV7Z0).CommunicationCommunication Technology and New MediaSocial Influence and Political CommunicationBook Chapter
