The media and globalization

the long version

There is practically no globalization without media and communications, but how do we each fit into this new globalized media environment? In this book, Terhi Rantanen provides an accessible and thought-provoking introduction to media globalization which offers: an introduction to the concepts and theories of globalization; a wealth of empirical materials on the production and consumption of media; a new methodology called mediagraphy for researching the media which relates individual, local experience to the global picture.
