At a number of moments in history, political communication has undergone radical changes. Today, the Internet is the latest and most conspicuous change in the media landscape. However, it is shortsighted to imagine that the processes of media change and media convergence have fully run their course after the hectic ascendance of the Internet. To better organize our thinking about the forms and implications of contemporary media change, the present compilation also explores the long-term history of political communication.
