This comprehensive companion is a much-needed reference source for
the expanding field of radio, audio, and podcast study, taking
readers through a diverse range of essays examining the core
questions and key debates surrounding radio practices,
technologies, industries, policies, resources, histories, and
relationships with audiences. Drawing together original essays from
well-established and emerging scholars to conceptualize this
multidisciplinary field, this book's global perspective
acknowledges radio's enduring affinity with the local, historical
relationship to the national, and its unpredictably transnational
reach. In its capacious understanding of what constitutes radio,
this collection also recognizes the latent time-and-space shifting
possibilities of radio broadcasting, and of the myriad ways for
audio to come to us 'live.' Chapters on terrestrial radio mingle
with studies of podcasts and streaming audio, emphasizing
continuities and innovations in form and content, delivery and
reception, production cultures and aesthetics, reminding us that
neither 'radio' nor 'podcasting' should be approached as static
objects of analysis but rather as mutually constituting cultural
forms. This cutting-edge and vibrant companion provides a rich
resource for scholars and students of history, art theory, industry
studies, journalism, media and communication, cultural studies,
feminist analysis, and postcolonial studies.
