New publication:

The Lebanese Media: Anatomy of a System in Perpetual Crisis
<http://www.palgrave.com/gb/book/9781137602800>

The monograph presents an analysis of the current Lebanese media system. From a theoretical angle, it discusses the extent to which this system can be analyzed using the ideal types put forth by Hallin and Mancini in their seminal work. Comparing Media Systems. Sarah El-Richani assesses the complex dimensions developed by the two scholars and utilizes their work as inspiration for a process of remodeling, amending the sub-indicators to identify salient factors and suggesting a new model. Featuring the views of over 60 stakeholders, this book gives a rare, critical, and concise account of the Lebanese media system.

It is preceded by a foreword by Prof. Daniel Hallin (University of California) and has been endorsed by Professors Naomi Sakr (University of Westminster), Carola Richter (Freie Universität Berlin) and Marwan Kraidy (University of Pennsylvania), who referred to it as "A must read for scholars of Lebanon, Arab media and comparative media research."
