- Abstract
The book "Media Systems in Balkan Countries: Context and Dynamics of Changes," edited by Bogusława Dobek-Ostrowska and Jelena Kleut, fills a gap in scholarly research on media in the Balkans. It provides a comprehensive understanding of media systems in the region, with a focus on individual country cases. The book explores the historical trajectories of media development, the roles of media institutions and journalists, and the impact of EU integration processes on media freedom and regulatory frameworks. It also examines the relationship between democracy and media in the Balkan region, addressing challenges to media freedom and pluralism. The book's strength lies in its inclusion of authors from the respective countries, providing insider perspectives and local insights. It is a valuable resource for scholars, policymakers, journalists, and students interested in media in transitional societies and the challenges of democratic governance in post-conflict contexts.
