The Politics of Mass Communication in Israel

Since Israel's independence in 1948, three changes have occurred in the relationship between the Israeli state and its citizens. These changes are reflected in the country's communication map. During the first phase of nation building, the nonliberal state had a monopoly over the means and content of mass communication. In the 1980s and early and middle 1990s, privatized means of communication were formed, permitting the market to affect public preferences. As we approach the end of the 1990s, the map may be altered again by a proposal for a new multicultural model. The article traces conceptually and historically the multifaceted nature of the interactions that have taken place between politics and communication in Israel.
