Bachelor of Arts - Journalism, Communications and Politics (J323)

Cardiff University - Cathays Park

What you will study

Student will analyze and reflect upon changes to both politics and policy driven by the growth of social media, the communications industry and the 24/7 news cycle. In recent years, institutional politics have become more happy, and political leaders are now media-driven and speak in soundbites.

Political campaigning is no longer limited to pre-electoral periods and public relations strategists and political consultants have become more and more central to politics. These links are affecting policy too, both at the national and the international levels.

The spread of the internet and the development of social media has also brought changes to the relations between citizens and their political representatives, and constitute a new platform for citizens’ political deliberation, and for the organization of activists, protesters, and new social movements (often at a transnational level). This new course aims to critically examine these and many other issues.

While this course is both challenging and academic in nature, it does NOT provide vocational journalism training.
