Building on the success of the first edition, the second edition maps out the expansion of media and telecommunications corporations within the macro-economic context of liberalisation, deregulation and privitisation. It then goes on to explore the impact of such growth on audiences in different cultural contexts and from regional, national and international perspectives. Each chaper contains engaging case studies, on for example Al-Jazeera, the global reach of Bollywood and the globalisation of 'reality television', which exemplify the main concepts and arguments. International Communication, 2nd edition, is essential reading for communication and media studies students.\n\n\nAbout the Author\n\n\nDaya Kishan Thussu, Professor of International Communication, University of Westminster, and the founder and managing editor of the journal Global Media and Communication\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780340888926\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e UsedVeryGood\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pigeonhouse Books, Dublin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39509692645528,"sku":"A6-F3J3-187U","price":9.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0293\/7474\/2572\/products\/51SHlhDxyqL.jpg?v=1616764387","url":"https:\/\/www.pigeonhousebooks.com\/products\/international-communication-continuity-and-change-a-hodder-arnold-publication","provider":"Pigeonhouse Books, Dublin","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
