  1. Of Slaves and Clients. Any Future for European PBS? Alina Mungiu-Pippidi Hertie School of Governance pippidi@hertie-school.org

  2. MAIN QUESTION: What explains the variation across cases of government behavior towards PB? • MAIN THESIS: Treatment of PB is a function of political clientelism as manifested through high politicization of the state

  3. Clientelism = pattern of social organization in which access to social resources is controlled by patrons and delivered to clients in exchange for deference and various kinds of support. • Particularistic and asymmetrical form of social organization, and is typically contrasted with forms of citizenship in which access to resources is based on universalistic criteria and formal equality before the law • Greater prevalence of clientelism is connected with the late development of democracy (Hallin and Papathanassoupoulos, 2000) • Clientelism is also an indispensable part of democracy development

  4. A model of autonomy of PB – a parsimonious model • Clientelism/politicization of public administration • Tradition of state interventionism/ Market liberalization • Ideology (monetarism)

  5. Association between performance and politicization

  6. Policy options • Annihilation • Commercialization • Europeanization • Is there a one size fits all solution in EU public broadcasting? • Can Europe help by regulation create a public sphere where it is not?
