What role does digitalization play in political communication in post-communist societies? What opportunities and challenges does it bring for journalism in these countries? Can social media contribute to democratization and the strengthening of press freedom? Students of the Institute for Media and Communication Studies examine these questions in interviews with media scholars and journalists in the new podcast “Eastcast”. It was produced in the course "Digital Media and Politics in Central and Eastern Europe" under supervision of Anna Litvinenko.

Each episode focuses on a specific post-communist country and is available here.
