The Center for Politics and Communication (CPC) is part of the Amsterdam School of Communication Research (ASCoR) at the University of Amsterdam. It brings together scholars, journalists, and political actors who share an interest in how politics is discussed, understood, and shaped in contemporary society. It offers a forum for dialogue, collaboration, and critical inquiry into a key question: how does communication shape democracy?
