| Description: |
Providing a multicultural analysis of the impact of globalized Western media, this guide specifically deals with sex, violence, and drugs. The text proposes a framework for understanding the political, social and economic problems that face media policy-makers in an age of globalization. |
| Synopsis: |
Prominent media scholars such as Herbert Schiller have long noted the implications of Western-especially American-cultural influence on peoples of the developing Third World. Media, Sex, Violence, and Drugs in the Global Village provides a multicultural analysis of the impact of globalized Western media, including movies, syndicated radio programs, the Internet, and satellite and cable television programs. Looking specifically at themes of sex, violence, and drugs, an international cast of media scholars offers case studies of countries grappling with the influences of both Western cultural imports and similar local productions. |
