Description
Understanding Global Media by Terry Flew provides a comprehensive overview of international communication worldwide. The book explores major theories of global media, including the rise of global production networks and the emergence of 'media cities'. It also examines multiculturalism and the concept of a global media culture. The author considers whether we are in a 'post-global' age or if there is a stable global communications order. Flew discusses the competition among digital and traditional media, as well as between the US and emerging powers like China. This book draws on diverse perspectives, making it an ideal introduction for students of media studies, communication studies, and cultural studies. Written by a renowned author, Understanding Global Media offers valuable insights into the study of media and globalization.
