Seminar paper from the year 2021 in the subject Communications - Media and Politics, Politic Communications, grade: 1,0, , language: English, abstract: The objective of this research project is to find out how students participate in politics nowadays - meaning what political participation means to them, whether and how they get involved, what motivates them and what might also prevent them from actively participating in politics. By gathering more information about their ways of obtaining news and how especially students discuss and pursue politics and current affairs, it is possible to understand better how young people can be approached and how they envision successful participation. Students have historically initiated and inspired national liberation movements, political parties, as well as labor organizations and cultural groups. In some countries, they have succeeded in influencing governments and changing policies, for example with regard to equal opportunities in education and better learning conditions. Therefore, the question that repeatedly leads to discussions is whether and to what ex-tent young people today are political and what influences their engagement with politics. Students in particular represent a relevant group in this context, partly for the reason that it is likely that many individuals who will later take on relevant roles in public life will emerge from this group. In addition, it can be assumed that trends and media developments that are also important for politics and political organizations arise early on in the student environment.
