Media Fortunes, Changing Times
Author: Russell Hiang-Khng Heng
Publisher: Institute of Southeast Asian Studies
ISBN: 9812301933
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 265
Book Description
This book examines how media have brought about or paced dramatic political events in Southeast Asia over the last two decades. It highlights a situation where media dynamics are no longer a simple formula of state control versus media resistance. The state can propel its own media-liberalizing programme; civil society can be an enemy of press freedom; market forces and cultural mindsets are sometimes more potent agents of change than state-appointed media custodians. Practitioners, scholars and activists have come together in this volume to provide a diversity of narratives on subjects as varied as powerful politicians and marginalized transsexuals.
