Description

This scholarly work by John Downing examines the pivotal role of media during Eastern Europe's dramatic political and economic transformation between 1980 and 1995. The book explores how media functioned across fundamental societal upheaval, investigating core themes including state power, economic restructuring, institutionalised racism, ethnic conflict, and surveillance systems. Internationalizing Media Theory critically reassesses existing media theories in light of these political and economic transitions, and directly challenges political science frameworks for overlooking essential issues that shaped regional change. Part of the Media Culture & Society series published by SAGE Publications, this work offers both theoretical critique and practical analysis of how communication systems reflected and influenced one of history's most significant geopolitical shifts.

Key Features

Focuses on Eastern Europe's 1980-1995 transition period, providing historical context for understanding media's role in political and economic upheaval.

Examines interconnected themes including state power, institutional racism, ethnic insurgency, surveillance and secrecy in relation to media practice.

Critically evaluates established media theories against real-world political transitions, identifying gaps in existing frameworks.

Challenges political science approaches for failing to address vital media-related issues during periods of major societal change.

Published by SAGE Publications Ltd as part of the Media Culture & Society academic series.
