About the book
This new addition to the brilliant No-Nonsense series explores the diversity of world media, from the corporate to the independent, and introduces readers to the political economy of the major media: film, television, radio, recording, publishing and the internet. While examining the dominant media, Peter Steven emphasises the diversity of local media production and media audiences around the world. He encourages the reader to question how the media reflects society: as passive recipients or as part of the construction of the media world.
