Dotazione e uso dei media. La Svizzera italiana nel contesto elvetico (The use and possession of media. The Italian-speaking Switzerland in the Helvetic contest)

The book presents a considerable amount of empirical data and discusses the characteristics of use and possession of media in the Italian-speaking part of Switzerland, comparing it with the media consumption in other parts of Switzerland and in some European countries. With its focus on Italian-speaking region, which was mostly neglected so far in studies on media consumption in Switzerland, this book contributes to the understanding of media use and offers a rich set of data for future research. It also discusses the cultural dimension behind the linguistic fragmentation of the country and how this is reflected in media use.
