Item description from seller

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Turkey presents a striking example of the most recent wave of global authoritarian turns.

The book shows how Turkey's news media surrendered its power over politics as some journalists embraced disinformation as a path to heightened status, others turned to self-censorship for protection, and still others resisted capture through continuous but fragmented efforts. The book portrays journalists as central actors in media decay, while also revealing that resilience to decay emerges where rising demand for 'news' meets the contentious mobilization of journalists. Although focused on Turkey, the book's insights extend far beyond, offering urgent lessons about the future of journalism in an age of populism, polarization, and institutional erosion. 222 pp. Englisch.…
