Book Description
The globalization of social, cultural and economic relations is facilitated, and at the same time conditioned by developments in the information and communications technologies (ICT) and infrastructure. Human knowledge brought mankind from an oral to a literate culture, thanks to the invention of print media. The development of the electronic media in the 20th century paved the way for the information age, in which spatial and temporal constraints are lifted. This work explores the consequences of this revolution in human communications, which are multidimensional in character, affecting economical, political and social life on national, international and local levels. The text is part of a series of volumes arising from the intellectual work of ECCR members.

Book Description
Key questions addressed by this iris special: 1. What is the meaning of "editorial responsibility" in the framework of the Audiovisual Media Services Directive? 2. What are the consequences of its definition? 3. Where are the "grey zones" of editorial responsibility? 4. What does the concept of editorial responsibility imply for the classification of existing audiovisual media services? This iris special analyses what the term "editorial responsibility" comprises and it deals with the questions that the term raises for the implementation of the Directive. This iris special brings to the fore the many facets, concepts and important consequences that constitute the field of editorial responsibility. It also shows the grey zones where legislators may have to struggle to find workable solutions and from where potential diverging views could emerge

Book Description
Digital technology for the production, transmission, and reception of television is expected to replace analogue transmission throughout the world. The timetable for this transition is uncertain and different projections have been made for virtually every country in the world. This book gives the exhaustive details of the issues of this changeover in Europe and elsewhere. The details are placed within the context of the massive changes, which the television industry has been subjected to over the past 25 years. The rollout of digital terrestrial television (DTTV) in Europe is a significant issue for every country included in this survey. It is of such importance because DTTV is the centerpiece of many governments' policies toward making Europe the world leader in new information and communication technologies. These same governments are all wrestling with the issues of how to use the technology in ways that create both commercial and non-commercial value. European perspectives on the social, cultural, and political nature of broadcasting vary significantly from those in other parts of the world and require that the introduction of DTTV should be handled differently to its introduction elsewhere. There are enormous technical, political, and economic aspects to be considered and these vary from country to country in Europe. The two editors bring a perspective to this study as media economists who come to the European scene from other parts of the world. The book covers DTTV in depth, and it also includes discussions of cable, satellite, broadband, and Internet technology for comparison.

Book Description
This report sets out the findings of a workshop, held in Amsterdam in September 2003 and organised by the Institute for Information Law and the European Audiovisual Observatory, to discuss access issues regarding media concentration in the digital television sector in Europe. Topics consider technical, legal and economic dimensions, as well as possible approaches to regulation, including the new EC Access Directive, the application of European competition law, or the more laisser-faire approach favoured in the United States.
