Sažetak
The paper discusses the complex relations between the distribution of power in societies (western and eastern) and the communication systems, especially mass media. Beside dominant, in all societies there exists alternative political communication and this comes afore especially in the times of crisis. In such times the media cannot “produce" the societal consensus, and elites are bound to reconstruct at least some of the important Institutions. As to the advent of the new information technologies, they cannot be taken only as a factor of democratization. It is quite posible that they will lead to an unprecedented concentration of power, e.g. in the multinational compa¬nies.
