"Da der Staat sein früheres Medienmonopol weitestgehend verloren hat, ist eine liberalisierte und demokratisierte öffentliche Sphäre entstanden, die divergierende und miteinander konkurrierende Sichtweisen ermöglicht. Neue hegemoniale Bestrebungen gehen nun jedoch vor allem vom Pfingstchristentu ... more
