Summary "Democratizing Global Media explores the complex relationship between globalizing media and the spread of democracy around the world. An international, interdisciplinary group of journalists and scholars discusses key - and often contentious - issues such as the power of media, the benefits of media globalization, and the political role of media. More than a critique. Democratizing Global Media offers positive alternatives, from peace journalism to popular movements toward democratizing media and public communication."--BOOK JACKET
