*The MEDIA FOR DEMOCRACY MONITOR 2021 *

*How leading news media survive digital transformation*

To what extent do structures and conduct of leading news media 
correspond with requirements of contemporary democracies? Based on a 
root concept of democracy and 30 empirical indicators, the Media for 
Democracy Monitor (MDM) delivers a panorama of the news media’s 
performance regarding freedom, equality, and control across several 
countries. In 2011, the MDM analysed 10 democracies. Ten years later, it 
covers 18 countries worldwide and pinpoints essential strengths and 
weaknesses during this decade of digitalisation.


The Media for Democracy Monitor 2021 has two volumes, edited by Josef 
Trappel and Tales Tomaz. Volume 1 contains countries present in the 2011 
MDM edition, allowing for longitudinal comparative analysis: Australia, 
Austria, Finland, Germany, the Netherlands, Portugal, Sweden, 
Switzerland, and the United Kingdom. Volume 2 contains all countries 
analysed for the first time in 2021: Belgium (Flanders), Canada, Chile, 
Denmark, Greece, Hong Kong, Iceland, Italy, and South Korea.

The two volumes are Open Access and available to read and download free 
of charge from Nordicom’s website. Here:
