Palgrave Macmillan
With the Eurocrisis, the European public sphere did not collapse but remained multi-segmented in nature, its legitimacy still the subject of fierce debate. Based on a 12-year long project – comparing Austria, Denmark, France, Germany, Poland and the United Kingdom – this book empirically demonstrates the contested character of the communicative construction of Europe. It does so by combining an investigation of journalistic practices with long-term content analysis of print media, an examination of citizens' online interactions and audience studies with European citizens.
