Stimmen zu »The 2019 European Electoral Campaign«

“A timely examination of the challenges that the European Union faces through the magnifying lens of the last European Election campaign. The book places populist and right wing sentiments spreading on the Continent, including Brexit, multiculturalism, environmentalism and economic restoration, in the spotlight. Are these old issues of the EU agenda? Perhaps so, but for the first time they are explored from the perspective of the new communication ecosystem. Insightful reading, for both scholars and students!” (Gianpietro Mazzoleni, Professor of Political Communication, University of Milan, Italy)

“This volume is ground-breaking in several ways. It offers insights on change over time, showing a growing understanding among voters of the European Union that they can affect with their votes. It is commendably sensitive and informative on variety and character of difference. It reveals clusters of states, parties and voters all on the move. Scholars and lay-readers alike will find insights explaining undercurrents that steer future trends more than the gusts on the surface.” (Tom Moring, Professor Emeritus in Communication and Journalism, University of Helsinki, Finland)
