Abstract | Media plays an important role in the socialisation process of children and adolescents. It enables children to take an active part in society as they have the potential to gain an orientation in life and draw guidelines concerning social and moral values, societal involvement and responsibilities. Moreover, especially when it comes to participation and critical citizenship, media lends itself to promoting a basic democratic understanding especially through offering information and providing options for an active critical involvement. In this paper we discuss the extent to which Austrian media providers empower participation and political literacy among children. Our findings are based on the quantitative analysis of Austria's children's television programming and a qualitative analysis of national child-oriented websites. Finally, the results obtained show that both Austria's child-specific television and internet offers lack content fostering citizenship and in particular participation. (DIPF/Orig.). |
