Overview
Bringing together leading scholars, mainly from the BRICS nations (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa), this volume examines how the emergence of the BRICS media will impact on global media and communication. Contextualising the rise of these nations within the broader shifts in global power relations, it investigates the unprecedented growth of the BRICS media within a 'multi-polar' world and evaluates each country's individual media landscape, history and journalism practices. It also analyses emerging inter-BRICS media relationships, providing a critical guide to complex debates about the impact of the 'rise of the rest' on the media globe and how far this poses a challenge to the Western-dominated world order and its media systems.
