Offering an in-depth look at globalization processes, histories, texts, 
and state policies as they relate to the global media, this book maps 
out the increasing role of digital platforms as they have shifted the 
contours of globalization. Case studies and examples focus on ubiquitous 
digital platforms, including Facebook, YouTube, and Netflix, in tandem 
with globalization so that the readers are able to apply diverse 
theoretical frameworks of globalization in different media milieu. 
Readers are taught core theoretical concepts which they should apply 
critically to a broad range of contemporary media policies, practices, 
movements, and technologies in different geographic regions of the world 
– North America, Europe, Africa, Latin America, and Asia – with a view 
to determining how they shape and are shaped by globalization.

End-of-chapter discussion questions prompt further critical thinking and 
research. Students doing coursework in digital media, global media, 
international communication, and globalization will find this new 
textbook to be an essential introduction to how media have influenced a 
complex set of globalization processes in broad international and 
comparative contexts.
