关于作者

Kathleen Hall Jamieson is a prominent scholar in the field of communication and political discourse. As the Director of the Annenberg Public Policy Center at the University of Pennsylvania, she has made significant contributions to understanding media influence on public opinion and political behavior. Her work often explores the intersection of media, democracy, and the effects of polarization in contemporary society. Notably, she has authored and edited several influential books, including "Democracy amid Crises: Polarization, Pandemic, Protests, and Persuasion," which examines how communication shapes democratic processes in times of turmoil.

Jamieson’s research delves into the complexities of political messaging, particularly during election cycles, and she has been a critical voice in discussions about the impact of media on democratic engagement. Her book, "The Obama Victory: How Media, Money, and Message Shaped the 2008 Election," offers insights into the strategic use of communication in modern politics. With a career dedicated to bridging the gap between media studies and political science, Jamieson continues to influence both academic and public discourse on democracy and the role of media in shaping societal views.
