A groundbreaking handbook that takes a cross-national approach to
the media history of Europe of the past 100 years The Handbook of
European Communication History is a definitive and authoritative
handbook that fills a gap in the literature to provide a coherent
and chronological history of mass media, public communication and
journalism in Europe from 1900 to the late 20th century. With
contributions from teams of scholars and members of the European
Communication Research and Education Association, the Handbook
explores media innovations, major changes and developments in the
media systems that affected public communication, as well as
societies and culture. The contributors also examine the general
trends of communication history and review debates related to media
development. To ensure a transnational approach to the topic, the
majority of chapters are written not by a single author but by
international teams formed around one or more lead authors. The
Handbook goes beyond national perspectives and provides a basis for
more cross-national treatments of historical developments in the
field of mediated communication. Indeed, this important Handbook:
Offers fresh insights on the development of media alongside key
differences between countries, regions, or media systems over the
past century Takes a fresh, cross-national approach to European
media history Contains contributions from leading international
scholars in this rapidly evolving area of study Explores the major
innovations, key developments, differing trends, and the important
debates concerning the media in the European setting Written for
students and academics of communication and media studies as well
as media professionals, The Handbook of European Communication
History covers European media from 1900 with the emergence of the
popular press to the professionalization of journalists and the
first wave of multimedia with the advent of film and radio
broadcasting through the rapid growth of the Internet and digital
media since the late 20th century.
