Synopsis

The fourth edition of Global Communication is the most comprehensive, multidisciplinary, multicultural, authoritative, and cutting-edge book published in the fields of media, culture, journalism, and communications. Twenty-four highly accomplished and prominent media scholars representing ten countries provide a survey of international communication, public relations and advertising, implications of globalization, international law and regulation, global culture, propaganda, transnational media, the shifting politics of media, trends in communication and information technology, and much more.
The fourth edition includes six new contributors (Lee B. Artz, Daniela V. Dimitrova, Berna Ackali Gur, Petros Iosifidis, Perry Keller, and Nicholas Nicoli) who cover such issues as politics of global culture, global theories, global law, implications of internet and politics. Other chapters are fully updated to foreground contemporary examples and major events that have impacted our global communication environment. Collectively, new contributions and updated chapters reflect the rapid technological and communications changes that are taking place nationally and globally. This eclectic book helps students to understand the emergence of globalization and its effects on a worldwide scale.
