商品簡介
International media scholars and political scientists contribute 18 chapters on the growth of alternative media and the challenges they pose to large media corporations worldwide. Their essays develop a framework for analyzing alternative media, such as web discussion forums, feminist film, and indigenous communication, and its role in global struggles such as the antiglobalization movement. Couldry (media and communications, London School of Economics and Political Science) and Curran (communications, Goldsmiths College, London) edit topics including the paradox of media power; the press subsidy system in Sweden; California's alternative weeklies; and the internet, social networks, and reform in Indonesia.
