文摘

The public sphere is a key criterion in western democracies. In its digital version, it is of special interest, too. The microblogging service Twitter claims that it constitutes a new public sphere of political communication. Citizens are able to directly express their opinion on the topics that interest them. The actors of the offline political public sphere must thereby reconsider their communication strategy. Politicians and administration’s professionals can use Twitter as a citizen friendly communication service. They can simulate citizen’s friendly situations. Journalists are faced with the question how to deal with the new digital public sphere, too. Should they observe, ignore, or force Twitter? This paper examines for the first time (Germany) the Twitter-Communication after a national election (Bundestagswahl) and the process of building the new federal government (Bundesregierung).KeywordsTwitterGroKoPublic SphereJournalismGrand CoalitionSocial Democratic PartyElectronic Democracy
