Recensione

`This volume is most welcome, for its authors provide useful maps of recent developments in international communication and chart future implicationsfor globalization. And they do more. They make judgments about what such developments mean for human freedom, social justice, and the quality of social life. They describe the past, present and future of international communications, examine several schools of thought that try to make sense of recent changes, and explore and evaluate some of the consequences.' - Contingencies and Crisis Management
