Course Objectives: | This course starts from the basic concepts of political science and then aims to develop an understanding of how political actors, the public and the media interact in everyday politics and in times of crisis. It also brings an understanding of agenda-setting by exploring the interaction. |
The students who have succeeded in this course; Students grasp the basic concepts of political science, understand agenda-setting and understand how political actors, the public and the media interact in everyday politics and in times of crisis. |
After analyzing the interaction theoretically, students will explore it on practical basis, by going out to the field. This fieldwork will most basically involve participant observation and in-depth interviews. |
