This is a necessary and very original book that really does address
the lack of attention to media in previous discussions about
globalization'
- "James Lull, San Jose State University
"
There is practically no globalization without media and
communications. Yet this relationship is so obvious it is often
overlooked. Rantanen challenges conventional ways of thinking about
globalization and shows it cannot be understood without studying
the role of the media.
This book offers:
- a clear and accessible overview of globalization and the
pivotal role of the media
- an introduction to the concepts and theories of
globalization
- empirical data on the production and consumption of media
- a methodology for relating individual, local experiences to
the global picture
Rantanen has made this complex and huge subject very accessible
by using personal histories and pictures to engage the reader.
It will be invaluable to students in international media,
cultural studies, communications and international relations.
