Produktinformationen zu „A Justice-Based Approach for New Media Policy / Progress in Mathematics (PDF)“

- Robert W. McChesney, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, USA

'This very interesting book provides a valuable account of how marginalised communities have used communication technology to regain their voices and seek justice. It shows how the struggle for democratic media policies needs to be an essential part of struggles against discrimination and oppression.'

- Des Freedman, Goldsmiths, University of London, UK

'This thought-provoking and must-read book sheds important and timely insight on how net-based platforms give voice and presence to marginalized publics, by mapping how voice can turn into impact, and translate into long-term and just policy.'

- Zizi Papacharissi, University of Illinois at Chicago, USA

In this book, a novel approach applying the theoretical framework of distributional justice theories developed by John Rawls and Amartya Sen to the governance of today's media proposes a fresh, innovative assessment of the potential role for media in society. Three case studies describe the utilization of new media by marginalized communities in Israel - Ethiopian immigrants, the Bedouin and Palestinians - and set the stage for media policy scholars, teachers and students to discuss an analytic framework for media policy that is fresh, different, innovative and original. Departing from the utilitarian principles that dominate Western liberal regimes, and that have led to the proliferation of media systems in which control is concentrated in the hands of the few, this work proposes an alternative that focuses on redistributing power and voice.
