The Mediated Climate
To what extent does journalism deserve blame for the failure to address climate change over the last thirty years? Critics point out that climate coverage has often lacked necessary urgency and hewed to traditional notions of objectivity and balance that allowed powerful interests—mainly fossil fuel companies—to manufacture doubt. Climate journalism, however, developed alongside the digital media landscape, which is characterized by rampant misinformation, political polarization, unaccountable tech companies, unchecked corporate power, and vast inequalities. Under these circumstances, journalism struggled, and bad actors flourished, muddling messages while emissions mounted and societies...

Transparenz und Kommunikation der Europäischen Union im Lichte des Art 15 AEUV
Politische, wirtschaftliche und gesellschaftliche Transparenz ist für das Funktionieren einer pluralistisch-liberalen Demokratie von größter Wichtigkeit. Direkt verbunden damit ist die Notwendigkeit offener politischer Kommunikation. Der Autor kommt zum Schluss, dass die Europäische Union beim Knüpfen des Kommunikationsnetzes entscheidende Fehler gemacht habe, die auch zur sinkenden Beliebtheit des institutionalisierten Europa beitrugen. Die EU sollte daher ihre Kommunikation verändern und verbessern, um eine neue europäische Öffentlichkeit mitzuerschaffen. Zuhören, Kommunizieren, Regionalisieren, Europäisieren: Der Autor entwirft einen „Plan E“, der durch integrierte Kommunikation und „Transparent Governance“ proaktiv und unter Einbeziehung klassischer und neuer Medien als Blueprint für eine neue europäische Initiative fungieren kann.
