This collection of short essays from leading media scholars reflects on critical issues of media history, power, ownership, influence and impact. The book uses the acclaimed media title Power Without Responsibility (PWR) as a calling card, a cue to reflect on the limitations of the media in different countries and to advocate solutions aimed at stimulating more democratic forms of communications. Organised in five sections, contributions in this book identify the relevance of PWR and then pick out and develop its core themes. The first section provides both a reminder of PWR's significance to media history and analysis and then explores its conclusions in relation to media systems in places including Europe, South and East Asia, Africa and Latin America. The second section takes up the argument that 'market censorship' impoverishes the media while the third explores the book's lessons for contemporary media reform. The fourth section explores the contribution of public service broadcasting and its relevance for future communications systems. The fifth section considers PWR's analysis of radical journalism in relation to both historical and contemporary initiatives while the concluding section features two original essays by the authors of PWR, James Curran and Jean Seaton, reflecting on their book 43 years and nine editions after it was first published.

Critique of the Political Economy of the Media is an approach to the critical analysis of the media's role in contemporary society. It is based on Karl Marx's theory of capitalism, using a combination of critical social theory and empirical social research for studying what role the media has in capitalism. It introduces a theoretical framework that engages with important themes including the crisis-ridden structural transformation of the media industry, media economics in the age of digital communications, media concentration, science communication and open access publishing, media technologies, the role of advertising in capitalism, and the contradictions of alternative media in capitalism. > Borrowing from the famous subtitle of Capital, the book combines theoretical depth with analytical rigour to throw new light on core issues of technological change, media concentration, private ownership, advertising finance and the commodification of media products, and to grapple with the problems of creating non-commercial alternatives. This book is a treasure trove of insights and provocations that belongs on the bookshelf and reading list of anyone seriously interested in developing a critical political economy of communication.
