Introduction to Media as a Social Force
Hjarvard (2008) “The Mediatization of Society”
“What are the consequences of the gradual and increasing adaptation of central societal
institutions and the culture in which we live to the presence of intervening media?”
So, basically mediatization impacts a lot of sectors. lol who could’ve guessed?
First applied in political context by Kent Asp, described as the process through which a political
system is very influenced by and accommodating to mass media’s demands in political coverage.
Done through polarizing issues (e.g. either pro-choice or pro-life on abortion) or personalizing
otherwise political statements to gain media coverage.
“Media twisted society” - Hernes’s more holistic perspective argued media impacted all social
institutions and their relationship to one another. Media has transformed society from not having
enough information to one where there is too much information, making people compete for
attention strategically (e.g. there are strategists for news companies, ‘gate-keeping’ news, etc, to
ensure they get attention, or viewership).
Altheide and Snow want to analyze social institutions transformed through media (working with
North American media, mostly politics). Traditional approached isolate “variables” for media
influence, they want to show how ‘media logic’ forms the kind of knowledge that is created and
circulated in society - concentrating on ‘form’ and ‘format’. “The Primacy of Form over
Content” - media logic mostly consists of a formatting logic that determines how media product
is categorized, the best way to ‘present’ the media, and the selection and showcasing of social
experiences in the media.
Mazzoleni and Schulz demonstrate the growing influence of mass media in political power
(Berlusconi, de Mello, Blair). They define mediatization as “the problematic concomitants or
consequences of the development of modern mass media” - a problematic consequence naturally
following the development of modern mass media. While political institutions still have their
power (parliament, parties), they are more dependent on mass media and have adapted to “media
logic” - arguably mediatized politics has lost its autonomy (agency).
