Media Commercialization and Authoritarian Rule in China - Daniela Stockmann - Hardback Bog - Cambridge University Press - 2012 - Engelsk - Booktok.dk
Brand: Cambridge University Press
Description
Stockmann argues that the consequences of introducing market forces to the media depend on the institutional design of the state. In one-party regimes, market-based media promote regime stability rather than destabilizing authoritarianism or bringing about democracy. This book links censorship with patterns of media consumption and the media's effects on public opinion.
