International Media Studies is a bold introduction to the field that focuses on a de-centering of media epistemology to represent a more thorough world-view.

A comprehensive textbook exploring the current state of media studies as it is being practised across the world
Takes discussions about media studies beyond other textbooks, by situating the subject firmly in an international context appropriate to the globalized, 21st century
Surveys our reception of a wide variety of media content and formats including television, magazines, fiction, newspapers, and popular music
Considers both theoretical and much-needed ethnographic perspectives on media studies
Showcases global and local media patterns in a variety of countries around the world, including examples from Asia, Africa, and Latin America
