<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>This key textbook provides a comprehensive and up-to-date account of developments in international communication worldwide. Taking a comparative approach to the major theories of global media, Terry Flew looks at the rise of global media production networks and the emergence of 'media cities', multiculturalism, and the question of a global media culture. This engaging book raises the question of whether we are now in a 'post-global' age, and discusses whether there is a stable global communications order, or instead a stage of increased competition among digital and traditional media, and between the US and emergent powers such as China. <p/>Drawing on a wide range of perspectives, and written by a renowned author, this is an essential introduction for undergraduate and postgraduate students of media studies, communication studies and cultural studies, and anyone interested in the study of media and globalization.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"This new edition of Understanding Global Media cuts through the complexities of various theories and practices of global media production, circulation and consumption, and helps us to think more strategically and critically about our ever-changing engagement with the most pervasive form of culture of our generation: global media." --<i>Terence Lee, Murdoch University, Australia</i> <p/>"Terry Flew's book is an essential manual for the scholarly study of media in our world today." --<i>William Youmans, George Washington University, USA</i> <p/>"This book could prove useful for those interested keeping up-to-date with the latest changes in global mass communication such as scholars and professionals in the fields of diplomacy, communications, and economics as well as anyone with an interest in modern global affairs." --<i>Tyler M.
