About this title

Review:

' - this book must be lauded for its versatility, accesibility and for achieving its objectives to reveal the complexities of communication. Thanks to its wide empirical and theoretical coverage it makes for interesting, thought provoking reading and, being well written and well referenced throughout, it provides an excellent background for further studies in the individual areas of exploration' --Andrea Esser - Roehampton University

'An insightful book that uses the intersection between International Politics and Media Studies to pose timely questions about the changing terrain of global communication. The wide-ranging topics covered in the book - including military rhetoric, online reporting and intellectual property rights - remind us that the everyday practices of global politics exceed traditional debates about war, peace and security. Indeed, this book makes a persuasive case that information and communication technologies are central to any analysis that seeks to make sense of the post 9-11 international sphere.' --Dr Debbie Lisle, Queens University Belfast
