Redefining and repositioning public service in the digital and multiplatform scenario: agents & strategies. An international comparison within the European Union.


This research project investigates to what extent the configuration of a digital and multiplatform media scenario requires an adaptation of Public Service Broadcasting/Media and how it can be carried out. The main goal is to identify and analyse what strategies are implemented to redefine the public service remit and to reposition its operators and its services in the new communication ecosystem. The national cases of Germany, Poland and Spain are compared in order to achieve an international perspective of the issue. Among the results, good practices and recommendations for practitioners will be included.
