Paper Abstract:      Today’s students, as adolescents and young adults in general, are publicly perceived to be less engaged in conventional politics than previous student generations. This PhD dissertation deals with the question if the Social Web plays a role as a new medium of political participation and how young adults use it politically. In other words the aim of this thesis is to reveal more about students´ attitudes to and experience with political participation in times of Bologna and Social Web. Employing a qualitative-empirical research design to analyse empirical data gathered in guided interviews, I decided to use and work with the methodology of Grounded Theory by Strauss and Corbin. The concept of mediatization is the theoretical frame of my doctoral thesis.
