Summary "Drawing on case studies of satellite and cable channels across South, Southeast and Northeast Asia, the author argues that the globalisation of the media and advertising can only be understood within the broader context of economic, political, social and cultural processes within nation states, subnational regions and transborder ethnic communities. A recurrent theme is "hybridity" of the global with the local, which makes transnational media in Asia a synergistic blend of East and West. Additionally, this book raises the deeper socio-ethical issues of relentless globalisation for developing countries and transitional economies worldwide."
"This interdisciplinary book, which seeks to blend insights from theory and practice, should be of interest to a wide readership ranging from scholars in media, communications, public policy, management and international business, to decision makers in multinational corporations, advertising agencies, broadcasters, government and civil society organisations."--BOOK JACKET
