Abstract

Growing media diversification and the changing use thereof as well as the rising opportunities of social media for politicians to communicate directly with citizens has altered the communicative relationship between represented and representatives, which is not only important during election campaigns, but also between elections. This panel invites papers that 1) offer new methodological approaches to how citizens are affected by political messages during and beyond election campaigns; 2) papers that deal with the (changing) communication behavior of politicians or political parties vis-à-vis citizens or voters; 3) papers that contribute new knowledge to the study of media effects on political behaviour beyond classic approaches such as agenda-setting, framing and priming; or 4) papers that take a longitudinal or comparative perspective in the study of the communicative interaction between politicians and citizens.
