本文考察了1994至1998年间德国五家优质报纸社论中的冲突与和谐程度。在德国多元化的媒体结构和舆论观念的背景下，讨论了媒体系统中的契合度。分析没有调查报纸之间的不同问题选择，而是比较了几家报纸对相应问题的看法。它侧重于报纸对根本政治冲突的立场，并确定了媒体系统中的共识和冲突领域。尽管这些报纸代表着明显不同的政治方向，但每一份报纸也都显示出与其对左翼或右翼政策选择的普遍偏好的具体偏离。结果表明，在对外关系问题和教育政策方面存在相当程度的一致。冲突围绕着法律和秩序以及移民问题而演变。
This article examines the degree of conflict and consonance in the editorials of five German quality newspapers between 1994 and 1998. The degree of correspondence in the media system is discussed against the background of Germany's pluralistic media structure on the one hand and concepts of public opinion on the other hand. Rather than investigating the differential issue selection among the newspapers, the analysis compares the opinions on issues correspondingly addressed by several newspapers. It focuses on the newspapers' positions regarding fundamental political conflicts and identifies spheres of consensus and conflict in the media system. Although the newspapers represent distinctly different political orientations, each of them also showed issue-specific deviations from its general preference for left or right policy alternatives. Results indicate considerable degrees of consonance regarding external relations issues and education policy. Conflict evolved around law and order and migration issues.
