xvi, 594 p. ; 25 cm. Featuring specially commissioned chapters from experts in the field of media and communications law this book provides an authoritative survey of media law from a comparative perspective. The handbook does not simply offer a synopsis of the state of affairs in media law jurisprudence; rather it provides a better understanding of the forces that generate media rules, norms, and standards against the background of major transformations in the way information is mediated as a result of democratization, economic development, cultural change, globalization and technological innovation.The book addresses a range of issues including: media law and evolving concepts of democracy; network neutrality and traffic management; public service broadcasting in Europe an the United States; theories and approaches in media governance; cultural development, diversity and protection. p.1.
