商品簡介
As with previous editions, this text by Hesmondhalgh (director, Media Industries Research Centre, U. of Leeds, England) aims to provide an understanding of current economic, political, and cultural change processes in the world's cultural industries within long-term historical context. The text presents analytical frameworks for thinking about the cultural industries; discusses impacts of policy shifts; and examines thematic issues of change from 1980 onwards. For this new edition, two chapters now address the onset of digital networks and their impact on existing cultural industries. References have also been updated.
