Chin-Chuan Lee

Jinquan Li

This book addresses, as few books in English have, a broad range of topics pertaining to China's expanding media and telecommunications systems. American and Chinese experts in journalism, communication, government, and political science use fieldwork, including participant observations, surveys, and in-depth interviews conducted within media organizations, to provide richly detailed analyses of the issues and of the changing face of media in China.

Lee contrasts the 'media imperialism' view with the liberal 'free flow of information' view of the international effects of mass media by making studies of television in Canada, Taiwan and the People's Republic of China. '...deserves a central place in any course dealing with international communication or with the societal effects of mass communication.' -- Journalism Quarterly, Vol 58 No 2, Summer 1981 'It is a very impressive piece of work which has the potential of being an outstanding contribution to the literature. There is no question it is first-rate.' -- Muriel G Cantor 'In both conception and conclusions, Lee's book provides reassuring evidence that empirical research really pays.
