Culture, politics, economics and technology all impact upon policy
decisions. To investigate the factors that influence communications
policy, however, one has to go beyond conventional views of media
and communication studies and combine these with policy studies.
Communications Policy: Theories and Issues utilizes new research to
highlight key debates and developments, and addresses a broad
spectrum of contemporary concerns regarding the structure and the
organization of communications systems in the past, present and
future. Combining theoretical analysis with empirical research
findings, this comprehensive text explores the contemporary
theories and issues in communications policy that affect all
democratic societies as they seek to address the challenges of
emerging information and communications technologies. Featuring
contributions from distinguished authors across a range of media
disciplines, Communications Policy introduces challenging ideas
about how communications should be structured in the future and is
essential reading for all policy makers, researchers and students
of communications policy. Editors: Stylianos Papathanassopoulos is
