Résumé éditeur This is a very well researched and highly successful effort to assess the role of the media in Eastern Europe's transitions from authoritarian, Leninist regimes to open societies. The book adds significantly to the current understanding of the post-Communist political cultures as hybrid phenomena, including elements of democratic participation and emerging pluralism, but also residual forms of Communist and pre-Communist mentalities."
Vladimir Tismaneanu, Professor of Government and Politics, University of Maryland

This volume delves thoughtfully into the complex nature of the interrelationships of media, civil society, political culture, and democratization. Impressive indeed! The breadth of sourcing itself is breathtaking ... An illuminating contribution to our understanding of important forces at work in today's world."
Kenneth Starck, Professor of Journalism and Mass Communication, University of Iowa

This is a must-read not just for media scholars and journalists, but for political scientists, economists, historians, policymakers, and anyone else who wants tc understand the tumultuous changes that have occurred in Eastern Europe." Dean Mills, Dean of the Journalism School, University of Missouri-Columbia

When the revolutions of 1989 swept away Eastern Europe's Communist governments, many expected that post-Communist media would lead the liberated societies in establishing and embracing democratic political cultures. But the news media have remained highly politicized and partisan. To study how the media civil society, and political culture are related in societies in transition, Entangled Evolutions examines numerous aspects of media in post-1989 Eastern Europe. Sources include interviews with journalists and politicians, sociological and political data from national surveys, and media audience studies.

Peter Gross is professor of journalism at California State University-Chico. He was an East European Studies research scholar in 1996 at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars.
