Abstract

The aim of this article is to propose a categorization of the media, structured from the identification of three overlapping action levels (as representation power, as meta-power, and as anti-power). The aim is to show how the current configuration of globalized media space culminates in a slow corrosion of the very essence of democracy: the public dimension of politics.
