Summary/Abstract: Both the world’s and European literature does not sufficiently discuss the topic of media representations of emotions. There are ongoing disputes whether media representations of emotions should be treated as a new paradigm, meta-process, communication space, social phenomenon or research program. Peter Lunt and Sonia Livingstone, in their critical appraisal of the concept made by Stig Hjarvard, David Deacon and James Stanyer, Andreas Hepp, Stig Hjarvard, Knut Lundby, postulate that the umbrella term “mediatisation” covers too many different theories and studies, bound only by a fascination with the media and their influence on social and private life, rather than by a fully-fledged theory and methodology.
