Editorial Reviews
Review
This book is not only timely but vital for anyone who wants to understand the state of affairs in international communication studies. -- Kaarle Nordenstreng
The topics and nations covered in this collection are of singular importance to the analysis of media and globalization as we feel our way into the twenty-first century. Morris and Waisbord have assembled a remarkably perceptive and prescient group of scholars whose expertise in this area is second to none. -- John D. H. Downing
A significant contribution to the debate about the often-conflicted relationship between states and globalizing forces in shaping telecommunications policies. The essays assembled here will stimulate and facilitate further comparative analysis of the responses of media systems in different countries to the forces of globalization. -- Michael Gurevitch, University of Maryland
Provocative book. ― Press/Politics
An important source that furthers understanding and leads the way for additional research. ― Choice Reviews
This edited collection is clearly relevant to the tensions between the state and global media and it is an extremely useful text for teaching. ― European Journal Of Communication
