Political Communication Resources is a gateway to Internet sites containing useful information about the media and democracy. This site was created by Lance Bennett as a service to students and citizens interested in learning more about how the media shape identity, society, and politics.

The resources available here include:

  • the Internet services of world news organizations;
  • data archives on society, citizen participation and the press;
  • media criticism from a wide range of political and academic perspectives;
  • political parties and other organizations involved with various issue and election campaigns;
  • professional associations for scholars and journalists;
  • research centers exploring the issues that confront citizens and democracies in the media age.

In addition to these resources, this site also contains Lance Bennett's home page, which includes a biographical statement, curriculum vita, and some of his current work in the area of political communication.
