Rezensionen

'Instructors and students will find this blend of golden classics and recent work very handy. The inclusion of fugitive historical documents from intergovernmental conferences is particularly helpful.' - Bella Mody, deCastro Chair in Global Media, University of Colorado, Boulder, USA

'As the field of communication studies expands and internationalizes, there is a growing need of global resource material. Daya Thussu has brought such material together in a Reader that will prove invaluable for teaching on the political, economic, cultural and technological dimensions of global communication. Not only a 'must read' but also a 'must use'. Highly recommended!' - Cees J. Hamelink, Professor Emeritus of International Communication, University of Amsterdam

'In this magisterial collection, Professor Thussu helps ground a discipline and frame a way of thinking about the global, the international, and the extraordinary significance of the changing empire of communications and society.' - Monroe Price, Director of the Center for Global Communication Studies at the Annenberg School of Communication, University of Pennsylvania, USA
