Communicating Europe : Technologies, Information, Events Hardback
by Andreas Fickers, Pascal Griset
Part of the Making Europe series
Hardback
Description
Since the early years of telegraphy, modernity at large generated and has depended upon technologies of electrical/electronic communication and information circulation: from telephone, radio, and television to the internet.
This volume reveals these connecting technologies’ geopolitical importance and their crucial relationships with culture, commerce, and communities.
Also the authors critically examine their spatial dimensions and transnational implications – as material objects with particular qualities, as elements in institutional complexes, and as ‘vehicles’ carrying complex symbolic meanings.
Through in-depth assessments of critical, as well as mundane, events in the history of communications and information, these analyses will significantly alter conventional perspectives both on communications and on modern European history.
