Critically examines the key social theories of mass communication
Highlights the work of individual theorists including Fiske, Williams, Hall, Habermas, Jameson, McLuhan and Baudrillard.
Covers the important traditions of media analysis from feminism, cultural studies and audience research.
Now includes a discussion of recent perspectives developed by Castells, Haraway, Virilio and Schiller.
Provides a glossary of key terms in media and social theory
Retaining all the strengths of the previous edition, Understanding Media Cultures, offers a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the field. It will be essential reading for students of social theory, media and cultural studies.
