The essential guide media capture: Lessons from Turkey

Guest lecturer Prof. Can Ertuna.

Is the media a pillar of democracy, or does it serve as a tool for shaping public opinion in populist politics? To answer this question, Prof. Can Ertuna from Bahcesehir University will critically examine the political, economic, and technological forces that influence media institutions, focusing on recent developments in Turkey while situating them within a broader historical context.

By exploring complex media dynamics, Prof. Ertuna’s lecture will provide valuable insights for students from diverse disciplines, including media studies, regional studies, political science, and sociology, as well as those interested in understanding the intersection of media and power in contemporary society.
