Despite the banter in today's media many Indians are still in the dark when it comes to knowing and acting upon their rights and responsibilities as citizens of a democratic society. In refreshingly candid and straight to the point language editor takes readers of all ages on an A Z trip through our government's structure from its earliest beginnings to definitions of basic components and concepts. This volume in the series takes a close look at the role of the press in a democracy through a collection of essays by journalists and scholars. The essays examine the orientation of the press in a democracy the function of the press in democracies the government and the press the structure and nature of the Indian Press and the future of news and journalism. The collection is aimed at correcting mistaken impressions about Indian media that mainstream conventional journalism is the only legitimate journalism that journalism as practiced currently in the India is the only valid model and that Indian journalism is not affected by journalistic trends and developments in other nations. The text offers a great deal of information about the history of democracy the development and processes of Indian Government and the people who have contributed to our country. 260 pp.
