Media and Power in Southeast Asia Paperback / softback
by Cherian (Hong Kong Baptist University) George, Gayathry Venkiteswaran
Part of the Elements in Politics and Society in Southeast Asia series
Paperback / softback
Description
This study of Southeast Asian media and politics explores issues of global relevance pertaining to journalism's relationship with political power.
It argues that the development of free, independent, and plural media has been complicated by trends towards commercialisation, digital platforms, and identity-based politics.
These forces interact with state power in complex ways, opening up political space and pluralising discourse, but without necessarily producing structural change.
The Element has sections on the democratic transitions of Indonesia, Myanmar and Malaysia; authoritarian resilience in Singapore; media ownership patterns in non-communist Southeast Asia; intolerance in Indonesia and Myanmar; and digital disruptions in Vietnam and Malaysia.
