Product Description Communication between nations is being transformed in ways unthinkable even a generation ago. As the pace of this revolution increases so does the need to address the impact of this process on culture and society. International Communication and Globalization provides an essential and timely survey of the area. The contributors trace the development of international communication while also offering new approaches to this complex and rapidly-growing field of media and communication studies. The essays in this volume scrutinize the impact of market relations, deregulation, and technology of the countries of the Third World, as well as the ethics of the global communication industry. This collection offers a range of perspectives on the relationship between the globalization of process and international communication and, as such, makes an important intervention in current debates about media, technology, and society. International Communication and Globalization is an essential resource for all students of communication, media, and international relations. | ||

Oldie but goodie This book is over a decade old, ancient in the world of communications, globalization, and academia. Its chapters are not widely cited nowadays and some of its theorizing can feel weighted by age. However, some of its insights remain relevant in the examination of the everchanging landscape of communications, and communications studies. Some areas covered here have unfortunately not become larger areas of study, but are worth considering in the scope of the field. | ||
