UNIT TWO
Politics and Communication
Unit Overview
Unit Two consists of two weeks of reflection on the issues that define political
communication at its most fundamental: power, ideology, and discourse. In week 3, we
reflect on politics and communication at the macro-level. Here we do so with specific
reference to the most sophisticated manifestation of formal political activity, the state (Nye
2004), as well as one of the problems that defines the meaning and limits of state power,
violence. (Karim 2000) In week 4, we bring the analysis of power, ideology, and discourse
to a micro-level. We begin with George Orwell’s famous essay, “Politics and the English
th
century and the author
Language.” Orwell, one of the great political journalists of the 20
of 1984 and Animal Farm, reflects on politics and discourse. In a second reading in week
4, we attend to the te problem of media bias and the alignment of state bureaucracies with
journalists. (Miljan and Cooper 2003). The chapter by two well-known academic
conservatives in Canada allows us to consider closely the nature of ideology, a concept
often twinned with discourse.
Learning outcomes for unit one
3.3 Recognize and restate some major theories that underpin communication studies
