International Media Research : A Critical Survey, Hardback Book

Hardback

Description

International Media Research offers a rigorous and critical review of key approaches and concerns that have recently defined the field of media research.

In this clearly argued collection of essays, the contributors analyze and reflect upon dominant themes and debates that have made media research an increasingly important element of cultural theory.

The volume begins with a critical evaluation of the work of the leading media scholar, Elihu Katz, and continues with an exploration of the relationship between media studies and adjacent disciplines: cultural studies and gender and sexuality. Contributors drawn from Britain, America, Canada and Belgium consider the relationships between media research and media policy in different national and international contexts.

Focusing on the European Union, East-Central Europe, North America and Latin America, chapters assess the impact of social, economic and political circumstances on policy debates and the shaping of the research agenda.

The final chapter adopts a transatlantic perspective in tracing and analysing the history of the media's role in reporting war.
