Perhaps the most ubiquitous of all the mass media, radio is also one of the longest established, dating back to the beginning of the last century. Yet it is one of the least theorized. This book examines the development of local radio broadcasting and the trend in the UK and abroad for locally-owned, locally-originated and locally-accountable commercial radio stations to fall into the hands of national and even international media groups. They in turn disadvantage the communities from which they seek to profit, by removing from them a means of cultural expression and democratic participation. In essence, localness in local radio is an endangered species, despite being a relatively recent phenomenon. By tracing the early development of local radio through ideologically-charged debates around public-service broadcasting and the fitness of the private sector to exploit scarce resources, to present-day digital environments in which traditional rationales for regulation on ownership and content have become increasingly challenged, the book provides amanifesto for informed speculation around future developments in local radio. Guy Starkey, a former radio producer and presenter,identifies and rationalizes current trends in local radio within wider globalizing influences in a range of international contexts. A principal focus on the United Kingdom is complemented by comparisons with different contexts in North America, the Commonwealth and the European Union.

Communication and Political Crisis explores the role of the global media in a period of intensifying geopolitical conflict. Through case studies drawn from domestic and international political crises such as the conflicts in the Middle East and Ukraine, leading media scholar Brian McNair argues that the digitized, globalized public sphere now confronted by all political actors has produced new opportunities for social progress and democratic reform, as well as new channels for state propaganda and terrorist spectaculars such as those performed by the Islamic State and Al Qaeda. In this major work, McNair argues that the role of digital communication will be crucial in determining the outcome of pressing global issues such as the future of feminism and gay rights, freedom of speech and media, and democracy itself.

"In today's fragmented media landscapes, national media cultures and national audiences seem elusive. Can we understand media without reference to a theory of nationalism and mass communication? This book assesses the relevance of nationalism, nation-state and national identity to our understanding of modern mass communication"--

Pour l'information et la création, pour la communication et le divertissement, pour l'éducation et la culture, une ère nouvelle est ouverte, sous l'effet conjoint de la révolution numérique et de la globalisation de l'économie. À quelles règles les médias traditionnels ou en ligne, les plateformes numériques et les réseaux sociaux obéissent-ils ? Quelle influence exercent-ils sur chacun de nous, sur les nations et sur la vie internationale ? Enfin, contribuent-ils à « civiliser » le village planétaire ? Refondue, enrichie et mise à jour, la 18e édition de Médias et Sociétés formule et illustre les grands défis liés à l'information et à la communication. En renvoyant dos à dos ceux qui déplorent la dilution de la culture et ceux qui louent les charmes des technologies, ce livre pose la question de l'information à l'ère de l'hypermodernité.
