About this book series
The Palgrave Global Media Policy and Business
Series has published over 22 books since its launch in 2012. Concentrating
on the social, cultural, political, political-economic, institutional, and
technological changes arising from the globalization and digitization of media
and communications industries, the series considers the impact of these changes
on business practice, regulation and policy, and social outcomes. The policy
side encompasses the challenge of conceiving policy-making as a reiterative
process that recurrently addresses such key challenges as inclusiveness,
participation, industrial-labor relations, universal access, digital
discrimination, and the growing implications of AI in an increasingly
globalized world, as well as local challenges to global media business and
culture. The business side encompasses a political economy approach that looks
at the power of transnational corporations in specific contexts — and the
controversies associated with these global conglomerates. The business side
considers as well the emergence of small and medium media enterprises, and the
role played by nation-states in promoting particular firms and industries.
Based on a multi-disciplinary approach, the series tackles four key questions:
- To what extent do new developments in
platforms, and approaches to personal data require radical change in
regulatory philosophy and objectives towards the media?
- To what extent do technologies, datafication
and transforming media consumption require fundamental changes in business
practices and models?
- To what extent do privatisation, datification,
globalisation, and commercialisation alter the creative freedom, cultural
and political diversity, values and public accountability of media
enterprises?
- To what extent does the structure of global
communications contribute to (in)equality within the Global South?
