visão geral
Understanding Media Economics provides a clear, introduction to the key economic concepts and issues affecting the media. Written with the needs of non-specialists in mind, this book:
> Explains the fundamental concepts relevant to the study of media economics
> Considers the key industrial quesions facing the media industries today
> Relates economic theory to business practice
> Covers a wide range of media activity - advertsing, television, film, print media and new media
> Looks at the impact of economics on public policy
The study of media has traditionally been dominated by disciplines other than economics. In recent years, however, issues such as competition and international trade have split over into the agenda of mainstream media studies. Understanding Media Economics opens up these issues for non-specialists and offers a stimulating perspective on the contemporary media environment.
This book will be an essential purchase for all students of the media and mass communication.
