Title: The media and cultural production
Description: "This book offers an introduction to the relationship between media power and cultural production. By marshalling a range of theoretical perspectives from political economy and cultural studies, The Media and Cultural Production invites the reader to analyze the relationship between the making of meaning, political, economic and social power and the machinery of cultural production the media. The Media and Cultural Production critically examines the notion of the "cultural industries"; examines the regulatory framework in which the cultural industries operate; looks at the impact of globalization on cultural production; and explores the way in which meaning is both produced and contested. The book demonstrates how concepts in communication and cultural studies can be mobilized to analyze cultural production in a range of contexts."--Jacket.
