Transparency has become increasingly important in various spheres of social life, and has also become increasingly important in the media. A fundamental requirement of democratic and free societies in order to hold governments and other political agents accountable, transparency is a central instrument in various policies and strategies for regulating the news media. This set of articles will hopefully provide the scientific community with an up-to-date idea of the various debates taking place around the issue of transparency in and of the media. After years of promoting public policies for transparency, it is important to understand the consequences for the day-to-day reality of communication. Only in this way will it be possible to assess the successes and failures of the measures adopted so far and guide the way forward.
