Second wave of the political communication crisis in the era of mediatization

The deepening process of mediatization and the dynamic development of new technologies have perpetuated the phenomena that Blumler and Gurevitch called the crisis of public communication. Therefore, in my considerations, I present an argument supporting the thesis that we are currently observing premises for categorizing transformations in communication as the second wave of the crisis. The article is exploratory, epistemological in nature, and the considerations undertaken in it are focused on the main research problem related to determining what characterizes the second wave of the crisis of political communication.
