책의 특징

Not only journalism but also all other academic fields will be able to enhance their value when they are able to embrace more of the world and a full range of generations. Most scholars agree that we need to get rid of the strong tendency in academia for analytical research to be concentrated in America or Western Europe. However, realistically, the theoretical prospect of covering a variety of cases from different regions is not easy, because of language barriers. This book attempts to make a tiny contribution in building general theories in the field of journalism by introducing the phenomena of one region, Korea. We hope this book will act as a starting point for enabling other social scholars to get to know about Korean cases and to expand academic exchange through their research results.
The contributors are members of the Broadcast Journalism Research Unit of KABS (Korean Association for Broadcasting and Telecommunication Studies).
