本文探讨了新闻媒体（尤其是电视新闻）在年轻人政治社会化中的地位。在简要概述了年轻人对政治和新闻媒体明显漠不关心的辩论之后，它对该领域的先前研究进行了批判性回顾。它认为，研究人员经常采用功能主义的社会化概念和过于狭隘的政治理解概念。本文的第二部分总结了作者自己对年轻人对电视新闻的解读进行的研究中提出的一些关键主题。它特别关注年轻人对政治明显的犬儒主义问题以及“批判性观看”的特征。文章最后呼吁将媒体教育作为政治教育和当代公民意识的一个重要方面。
This article considers the place of news media-particularly television news-in young people's political socialisation. Following a brief sketch of debates about young people's apparent indifference to politics and to news media, it provides a critical review of previous research in this field. It argues that researchers have often operated with a functionalist notion of socialisation and an unduly narrow conception of political understanding. The second part of the article provides a summary of some key themes raised by the author's own research into young people's interpretations of television news. It focuses particularly on the question of young people's apparent cynicism about politics, and on the characteristics of 'critical viewing'. The article concludes with a call for media education as a crucial dimension of political education and contemporary citizenship.
