Abstract "This book explores the forms, patterns, and trends in political communication in India in the 21st century. It underlies the influence of context in political messaging laying bare its complex, overlapping, and multidimensional structures. The volume examines how political decision-making is shaped by media - through political speeches, community opinion leaders, formal and informal public conversations. It also explores a range of political communication channels- from community radio to social media. The volume presents an overview of the problems associated with message designing and message dissemination through communication channels in a political setting and highlights how political communication impacts critical aspects of democracy and governance and goes beyond mere rhetoric. A comprehensive work on the production, diffusion, transmission, and impact of information in a political environment, this book will be of great interest to scholars and researchers of politics, governance, democracy, media and communication studies, journalism, cultural studies, and South Asian studies"-- Provided by publisher.
