Abstract

IN ENGLISH: The goal of this research was to determine the changes in frequency and characteristics of media reporting of different scientific disciplines in the socio-historical context in which they arise. The research was conducted using the method of content analysis, which comprised Croatian daily newspapers with the highest readership in two time periods: ’socialism‘, from 1986 to 1988, and ’democracy‘, from 2006 to 2008. The constructed week method was used to select a total of 885 articles. The findings confirm the specificities in media communication of particular scientific disciplines in different socio-political contexts, as well as a tendency of levelling media practices in line with global trends, such as growing orientation towards medicalisation and socio-spatial domination of ’Western‘ news. --------------- IN CROATIAN: Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je utvrditi promjene u učestalosti i obilježjima medijskog izvještavanja o različitim znanstvenim disciplinama u društveno-povijesnom kontekstu u kojem nastaju. Istraživanje je provedeno metodom analize sadržaja koja je obuhvatila najčitanije hrvatske dnevne novine u dva vremenska razdoblja: „socijalističkom“, od 1986. do 1988., i „demokratskom“, od 2006. do 2008. Korištena je metoda konstruiranog tjedna za odabir ukupno 885 članaka. Nalazi potvrđuju specifičnosti medijske komunikacije pojedinih znanstvenih disciplina u različitim društveno-političkim kontekstima, kao i tendenciju ujednačavanja medijskih praksi u skladu s globalnim trendovima, kao što su rastuća orijentacija prema medikalizaciji i socioprostorna dominacija „zapadnjačkih“ vijesti.
