Why the State Matters
By comparing case studies from around the world this text shows why the state matters to the media and telecommunications industries in a globalising world and sheds light on the extent of state power in the face of transnational pressures.
Media and Globalization shows why the state matters to media and telecommunications industries in a globalizing world: governments control and regulate these industries in important ways and states remain central arenas for policymaking and international agreements. Using case studies drawn from around the world, this book sheds light on the extent of state power in the face of transnational pressures and explores policy, economics, and culture as they factor into media globalization.
