Doctoral dissertation Cultural aspects of European Media Policy – Consequences on media system of Republic of Croatia deals with the key influences of European media policy implementation in Croatian media system, with special emphasis on public broadcasting, on Croatian cultural subsystem. Starting point in doctoral dissertation comes from the fact that European media policy definitive profile is, although articulated under strong influence of global corporate-commercial interests, still determined by strong Europe´s social democratic political tradition and with preferred social state concept as well as extremely forceful European multicultural identity. This identity is ipso jure restrictive factor for expansion of monotonous mass content. In its efforts to reinforce structures of European Union, European political institutions retain elements of public broadcasting service with conceptual guidance to self-awareness of European identity in which cultural similarities and particularities have similar significance. Technological and operating as well as content aspects of national media systems should be devoted and subjected to this aim. So, the focus is on the media discourse of very complex interferences between Croatian and European cultural identity; highlighting and promotion of universal European values and national identity preservation. Conceptual and normative fundamentals of European public broadcasting system will be subjected to critical analysis of functional cohesion with the multiculturalism idea. Croatian public broadcasting system will be analyzed according to structural adjustments to European system (media policy) and contributions to national (Croatian) and pan national (European) cultural identity convergence.
