Cultural journalism in the Nordic countries / Nete Norgaard Kristensen; Kristina Riegert - Sweden : Nordicom, 2017. - 207 pages : illustrations ; 24 cm

In an era when culture itself has become central to political debates, when boundaries between hard news and so news, facts and opinion are dissolving, cultural journalism contributes to democratic discourse on vital issues of our time. Cultural journalism is furthermore indicative of journalistic autonomy and specialisation within media organisations, and of the intertwined relationship between the cultural and political public spheres. Nordic cultural journalism in the mainstream media covers more subjects today than ever before, from fine arts to gaming, media industries, and lifestyle issues. At the same time, it harbours debates and reflection on freedom of expression, ethnicity and national identity. This book contributes to an emerging international research agenda on cultural journalism at a time when digitalisation, convergence and globalisation are influencing the character of journalism in multiple ways.
