This cluster brings together research in the field of media and democracy. It seeks to connect researchers concerned with the following areas within media:

  • Culture and the state

  • Representation and power
  • Literacy and citizenship

The cluster encompasses research across a range of media forms and cultural practices including; news and journalism, film and television drama, documentary, popular culture and entertainment, media education

The impact of such research might be felt by non-governmental agencies, the community sector, professional associations and trade unions, educators, as well as politicians, parties and policy makers.
