Scholars in the Sociology of Race have extensively researched public 
policy sectors such as housing, taxation, and immigration. However, 
media policy research has often failed to effectively engage with the 
critical concept of racialization, driven instead by political and 
economic perspectives. Racializing Media Policy fills this gap in the 
sociological, communications, and media studies literatures with its 
focus on the racialized processes that construct media policy work in 
the United States.

With research that merges subfields of racialization and media policy, 
explores the US broadcasting policy, and examines racialization without 
integration and mediating structural challenges, the authors delve into 
multiple scenarios of racialization in policy. The chapters offer 
theoretical frameworks and case studies to consider the ways that media 
policy spaces are embedded with ideologies and praxes surrounding race.

Racializing Media Policy contributes to a wider understanding of the 
role of policy work in the media systems, particularly by examining the 
ways that race is embedded within those structures. This unique 
perspective makes the volume an important read for scholars across the 
Sociology and Media Studies fields, in addition to providing critical 
context for policymakers.
