"In recent years, India has emerged as a major economic and political power: on the basis of purchasing-power parity, it was the world's fourth largest economy in 2011. Yet the country's cultural influence outside India has not been adequately analyzed in academic discourses. As the world's largest democracy with a vibrant and pluralist media system, India offers an excellent case study of the power of culture and communication in the age of mediated international relations. This book, a pioneering attempt, from an international communication/media perspective, is aimed to fill the existing gap in scholarship in this area. The discussion of India's rising soft power is located within a historical context, thus problematizing the notion of Soft Power itself. The book will be aimed at university courses on global media/international relations/area studies - among others. "--

The second edition of International Communication examines the profound changes that have taken place, and are continuing to take place at an astonishing speed, in international media and communication since the turn of the new millennium. Building on the success of the first edition, the second maps out the expansion of media and telecommunications corporations within the macro-economic context of liberalisation, deregulation and privitisation. It then goes on to explore the impact of such growth on audiences in different cultural contexts and from regional, national and international perspectives. Each chapter contains engaging case studies which exemplify the main concepts and arguments. ' The best introduction and overview of the subject in print. Thussu works across all the important social, economic and political issues connected to the topic, making thoughtful and persuasive arguments. The book is well organized and highly readable.' - Professor Robert W. McChesney, University of Illinois, USA Review: It is a well organized and highly readable book. Educational Book Review "This is an excellent publication ... What Daya Thussu has succeeded in doing is combining, in one well-written tome, a rich over-view of the world's contemporary media and communications environment." Learning, Media and Technology

The advent of digital technologies and the growing availability of affordable communication satellites has transformed the global media landscape. Because of this, transnational traffic in media products has expanded. The leading players in the field are the major media corporations such as Disney, AOL, Time Warner and News Corporation. However, as this book argues, new networks have emerged which buck this trend.; Brazilian TV is watched in China, Indian films have a huge following in the Arab world; Al Jazeera has become a household name in the West. This book, written by an international team of distinguished contributors, examines how the new trends are affecting the globalisation of media and how media discourses have been afected by this contraflow.
