A broad and accessible introduction to national and transnational
media Transnational Media: Concepts and Cases provides a clear and
engaging overview of media communication from a global and a
region-based perspective. Rather than focusing on just complex
theories and industry-specific analyses, this unique book offers an
inclusive, comparative approach to both journalism and
entertainment media--introducing readers to the essential concepts,
systems, transnational influences, and power dynamics that shape
global media flow. Broad coverage of different media forms from
Asia, Africa, the Americas, Europe, and Oceania offers
country-based and transnational perspectives while highlighting
examples of media trends in television, radio, film, journalism,
social media, music, and others. Promoting a balanced, multipolar
exploration of transnational media, this innovative book discusses
topics such as media concentration, the cultural, political, and
economic impact of media, and the primary centers of new and
traditional media activities. Chapters organized by geographic
region offer instructive pedagogical features--including case
studies and essays, and illustrations, maps and charts--that
strengthen understanding of distinctive and emerging practices in
the production, distribution, and consumption of media products.
Explores a wide range of global media topics, infrastructures,
