Reviews
‘Alongside China’s recent efforts to become a more influential player in the global arena, this collection serves as an enlightening and thoughtful study on why and how China’s media go global. This book will be a resourceful tool for readers to better understand the complexity of the interplay of China’s media and politics/ideology and its unique media system and practice.’ - Junhao Hong, State University of New York at Buffalo ‘This collection of articles on Chinese media in the global context will be invaluable to anyone researching or teaching about contemporary China, international communication, and international relations more generally. The editors have gathered a wide-range of material from leading experts that is both empirically rich and intellectually stimulating.’- Colin Sparks, Hong Kong Baptist University ‘I am thrilled to witness that three leading scholars from India, China and Britain joined hands in accomplishing this ground-breaking volume.’ - Li Xiguang, Tsinghua University
