Media Power, Professionals and Policies

The work of Jeremy Tunstall, one of the founding fathers of British media studies, is the inspiration behind Media Power, Professionals and Policies. In this collection of new work, leading international contributors address the central themes of Tunstall's work; the history, structures and practices of the international media industry, the relationship between media and government, and the sociology of labour in the media industry.

Howard Tumbler is Professor of Sociology and Dean of the School of Social and Human Sciences at City University, London
